ABSTRACT:
A magnetic head supported for scanning along tracks of a magnetic medium is mounted on a piezoelectric bender element for movement laterally relative to the tracks as they are scanned. As the head scans a track, the relative position between the track to be reproduced and the head is sensed to determine the tracking position of the heads. A bias control signal is generated by a servo circuit and applied to energize the piezoelectric bender element to position the head relative to the track to maintain the head in the desired tracking position as it scans the magnetic medium.
