Read head protection circuit and method

A circuit (80) and method (84) for protecting read heads (18) of a hard-disk drive system (100). Capacitor C1 is controllably coupled to a dummy head Rdummy during a Vbias mode, so that capacitor C1 has a low, predictable voltage upon returning to Ibias mode, protecting the read heads (18) from dama...

description A circuit (80) and method (84) for protecting read heads (18) of a hard-disk drive system (100). Capacitor C1 is controllably coupled to a dummy head Rdummy during a Vbias mode, so that capacitor C1 has a low, predictable voltage upon returning to Ibias mode, protecting the read heads (18) from damage. The circuit (80) includes logic (82) and algorithm (84) determining when to couple the capacitor C1 to the dummy head Rdummy during a servo bank write (SBW) sequence.
