ABSTRACT:
A testing method of a wafer provided with a plurality of thin-film magnetic heads is provided. Each of the plurality of thin-film magnetic heads includes a main pole layer, a first test pad formed on the wafer and electrically connected with an extended top end section of the main pole layer and a second test pad formed on the wafer and electrically connected with a back end section of the main pole layer. The testing method includes a step of measuring an electrical resistance between the first test pad and the second test pad, a step of judging whether the measured electrical resistance is within a set range, and a step of discriminating that the thin-film magnetic head is a non-defective product when the measured electrical resistance is within the set range.
