<p>The present invention relates to a drive circuit for a rotating erase head (1) used in magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus of rotating head type. Resonance capacitance (8) is added in parallel across terminals (4, 4) of a stationary winding of a rotating transformer (3) for transferring an erase signal to said rotating erase head (1). The resonance capacitance (8) causes parallel resonance at an erase signal frequency (fe) in conjunction with an inductance component (Lr) obtained when the rotating erase head (1) is seen through the rotating transformer (3). Since a parallel resonance current (ir) thus flows through the rotating erase head (1), a very large erase current (ie) as compared with a drive current (id) supplied by a drive circuit (6) can be obtained. Since the resonance capacitance (8) can be disposed within the drive circuit (6), it can be mounted very simply and the space can be efficiently used. In addition, there is no cost up of a rotating cylinder (2) on which the rotating erase head (1) is disposed at all.</p> |
