A flexure of a disk drive suspension with a magnetic head having first and second elements. The flexure includes a metal base, a conductive circuit along the metal base, and a tail pad in a flexure tail of the flexure. The tail pad includes first and second frames with an opening therebetween; a first pair of tail terminals arranged between and insulated from the first and second frames, connected to the first element; a second pair of tail terminals arranged between and insulated from the first and second frames, connected to the second element; and a third pair of tail terminals arranged between and insulated from the first and second frames, connected to a third element. First, second and third bridge elements of the metal base are arranged between first tail terminals, second tail terminals, and third tail terminals, respectively. A first bridge-free opening portion is between the first and second tail terminals, and a second bridge-free opening portion is between the first and third tail terminals. |

1. A flexure of a disk drive suspension with a magnetic head mounted therein, the magnetic head comprising a first element and a second element,
the flexure including a metal base, a conductive circuit portion formed along the metal base, and a tail pad portion formed in a flexure tail at an end of the flexure, the tail pad portion comprising: a frame structure which is a part of the metal base, and comprises a first frame and a second frame extending in a longitudinal direction of the tail pad portion, an opening being defined between the first frame and the second frame; a first pair of tail terminals connected to the first element, the first pair of tail terminals being electrically insulated from the first frame and the second frame, and arranged between the first frame and the second frame; a second pair of tail terminals connected to the second element, the second pair of tail terminals being electrically insulated from the first frame and the second frame, and arranged between the first frame and the second frame at a place different from where the first pair of tail terminals is provided; a third pair of tail terminals connected to a third element, the third pair of tail terminals being electrically insulated from the first frame and the second frame, and arranged between the first frame and the second frame at a place different from where the first pair of tail terminals and the second pair of tail terminals are provided; a first bridge element which is a part of the metal base, is arranged between the terminals constituting the first pair of tail terminals, and is contiguous with the first frame and the second frame; a second bridge element which is a part of the metal base, is arranged between the terminals constituting the second pair of tail terminals, and is contiguous with the first frame and the second frame; a third bridge element which is a part of the metal base, is arranged between the terminals constituting the third pair of tail terminals, and is contiguous with the first frame and the second frame; a first bridge-free opening portion defined between the first pair of tail terminals and the second pair of tail terminals, the first bridge-free opening portion not having a bridge element between the first frame and the second frame; and a second bridge-free opening portion defined between the first pair of tail terminals and the third pair of tail terminals, the second bridge-free opening portion not having a bridge element between the first frame and the second frame. |
