ABSTRACT:
A magetic recording system includes a current-tapering circuit which gradually reduces the WRITE current in a magnetic recording head to zero over a time interval on the same order of magnitude as the characteristic relaxation time of the domain patterns in the magnetic recording head, rather than abruptly. Specific embodiments of the current-tapering circuit create a down-sloping ramp, a decaying exponential curve, and a high-frequency burst. The resultant magnetic recording system has reduced Barkhausen noise and reproducible READ performance as well as improved READ sensitivity following a WRITE operation.
