Systems and methods for detecting touchdown of a head on a disk are provided. In one embodiment, a disk drive comprises a thermal sensor configured to sense a temperature of a head and to generate a thermal signal based on the sensed temperature. The disk drive also comprises touchdown circuit configured to receive the thermal signal, to increment a count value each time the thermal signal exceeds a thermal threshold, and to output a fault signal when the count value is equal to or exceeds a count threshold.
