Magnetic reproducing method for suppressing low temperature noise

摘要

Provided is a magnetic reproducing method that enables a thin-film magnetic head including a head element for reading data signals which has a noise in its output due to a low temperature to bring out an excellent read characteristic in which the noise is suppressed even under the use environment with the low temperature. The magnetic reproducing method comprises the steps of: heating a head element for reading data signals which has a noise in its output due to a low temperature; and performing a read operation by using the head element for reading data signals under condition that the head element is increased in temperature.
