疑似信号の発生が不可避であった。A ferromagnetic magnetoresistive element (hereinafter abbreviated as a wind element) is an element whose electrical resistance changes depending on an applied magnetic field, and is being applied as a reproducing magnetic head because of its high detection sensitivity. Typical materials include N i Fe alloy and N
I-Co alloys are well known, and these have a resistance change rate of about 2 to 5 degrees due to a magnetic field, but at the same time they also change resistance depending on temperature, and a temperature change of about 4 to 10'C is due to a signal magnetic field. It reaches a level comparable to 1. In order to eliminate spurious signal components caused by such temperature changes, conventional magnetic heads distribute two MR elements as shown in Figure 1 to generate a differential output, that is, the difference in resistance change I. There is a known method for outputting . This takes advantage of the fact that a signal magnetic field is applied to the MR element 1 closer to the magnetic recording medium 3, whereas no magnetic field is applied to the MR element 2 farther from the magnetic recording medium 3, and the differential is This eliminates in-phase resistance changes caused by temperature changes. However, although this method can cope with slow, wide-area temperature changes, it cannot cope with local, instantaneous temperature changes caused by sliding with a magnetic He recording medium or collision with minute protrusions, such as in a magnetic head. For M'
Because of the time difference between the temperature rises of R elements 1 and 2, the generation of spike-like pseudo signals was unavoidable.

The conductive stripes 14 serve as a mechanism for forming the conductor stripes.

決まるので凧素子12.13の抵抗変化は同相となる。Next, this operation will be explained. The magnetic field from the magnetization of the magnetic recording medium 16 magnetizes the yoke 11, and the magnetic field produced by this magnetization further magnetizes the dish element 12.13. It is well known that if the magnetization direction of the MR element is magnetically biased so as to be inclined by 45'' with respect to the direction of the sense current flowing therein, a linear output with better sensitivity can be obtained.■Element 1
2.13 are in opposite directions, that is, M
Since the R element is magnetically biased at 45 degrees and -45 degrees with respect to the sense current direction, resistance changes in opposite phases occur depending on the magnetic field from the yoke 11. On the other hand, since the change in resistance due to temperature is determined only by the temperature coefficient of resistance of the kite element material, the changes in resistance of the kite elements 12 and 13 are in the same phase.

声以下とすることが可能となっている。Therefore, the differential of the two MR Iikos 12 and 13 is taken. That is, by using the difference in resistance variation between the two as the output, it is possible to obtain a reproduction output that is not affected by temperature changes. Note that the minimum bit length of the magnetic recording medium that can be reproduced by the magnetic head element, that is, the resolution, is approximately the distance between the general KMR element and the magnetic recording medium, so it is usually 10 units from aμ, but the magnetic head of the present invention In this case, since the wind element is indirectly magnetized by the yoke 11, it is possible to reduce the noise to below 100 m.

The temperature is quiet between 1 and 22 or 23 and 24, and there is no difference in resistance change, and by adopting a differential configuration, the temperature difference between the magnetic head of the present invention and the conventional one is eliminated. can. However, in a magnetic head, the magnetic recording medium 25.2
6 or contact with minute protrusions, which corresponds to a small heat source moving at high speed on the surface of the medium facing surface 27,28. When this heat source passes near the element 2, the element 23 comes into contact with the point-shaped heat source, so it
A sudden temperature rise occurs as shown in R8 of 1. On the other hand, the R elements 2], 22 and 24 are connected to the medium facing surfaces 27, 2.

, R2 and R4 in Figure 3 (dl), the changes are relatively slow (especially since the MR elements 21 and 22 are arranged close to each other, the changes are almost the same. Therefore, the MR elements In the conventional magnetic head having a differential configuration of 23 and 24, a spike-like pseudo signal output as shown by ΔR2 in FIG.
As shown by ΔR8 in Figure (e), it is completely unaffected by sudden and local temperature changes.

Both are possible. FIGS. 4(a) and 4(b) are diagrams showing, for the sake of simplicity, only the stage in front of which the MR element and magnetic bias are formed as an example of such a modification.

This is a configuration known as a foundling. When the magnetization directions of the MR elements 31 and 32 are the same in the X direction when no signal magnetic field is applied, the conductor bars 33 and 34 are arranged so as to be orthogonal to each other, and conversely, the MR element 3
When the magnetization directions of 1.32 are set to be opposite to each other in the X direction, a predetermined reverse bias magnetization can be obtained by making the conductors 33 and 34 parallel to each other. Furthermore, the one shown in FIG. 4(b) is constructed so that currents flow in the same direction through the MR elements 35 and 36. ■Element 35.

If a back yoke 44 is installed on the side as well, it is possible to further improve the detection sensitivity of 42.43 of the 1-Sho element.In addition, the distance between the MTt element and the yoke should be kept as small as possible to maintain electrical insulation. It is preferable to make one, but it is easier to make the fifth one.
