ABSTRACT:
A circuit and method for detecting an abnormality in a recording head, wherein a voltage detection circuit detects a counter electromotive voltage generated across the two terminals of a recording head to which a recording current is supplied from a recording circuit; a processing circuit generates the maximum, minimum, and mean voltages from the counter electromotive voltage; a discrimination circuit using these voltages determines whether an abnormality occurs in the recording head. An output circuit outputs the result. With this operation, an abnormality in the recording head having two terminals in an MR head can be detected with a high precision.
