Integrated bias and offset recovery amplifier

摘要

A preamplifier circuit is connected to a transducing head, and has integrated bias circuitry and offset recovery circuitry. The offset recovery circuitry is activated in response to a transition from write mode to read more to provide an output signal representative of a signal across the transducing head. The bias circuitry is driven by the output signal of the offset recovery circuitry to bias the transducing head.
