ABSTRACT:
A data storage system comprises magnetoresistive (MR) sensing elements for sensing data from a recording medium that is referenced to ground, and an amplifier circuit including a biasing stage, an amplifying stage, and a matching stage, each referenced to a common supply voltage source and to ground. The biasing stage includes a reference current source for selectively biasing each MR element with a constant current and, in so doing, developing a single-ended voltage signal having a first dc component. The amplifying stage converts the single-ended voltage signal into an amplified single-ended output voltage signal having a second dc component but in which the first dc component is eliminated. The matching stage creates a bias and imposes said bias on the amplifying stage for converting the single-ended output voltage signal to a differential output voltage signal in which the second dc component is eliminated.
