MAGNETIC RECORDING/REPRODUCING APPARATUS
PURPOSE:To prolong the life of an MR element by setting a value of a sense current supplied to a magnetoresistance effect element (MR element) when servo data are read out from a magnetic recording medium to be smaller than a value of the sense current when data are read out. CONSTITUTION:Respective...

Zusammenfassung: | PURPOSE:To prolong the life of an MR element by setting a value of a sense current supplied to a magnetoresistance effect element (MR element) when servo data are read out from a magnetic recording medium to be smaller than a value of the sense current when data are read out. CONSTITUTION:Respective currents to be supplied to a magnetoresistance effect element of a magnetic head 1 when a servo segment as a first data-recording part of a sector on a magnetic recording medium 2 is read and when a data segment as a second data-recording part is read out, are switched to Isv and Ist by a sense current-switching function 25 (optimum value: to minimize asymmetry of a reproduced waveform), so that Isv |
