Method and apparatus for magnetic recording of data with a recording head having a plurality of physically parallel, serially connectable conductors

摘要

Method and apparatus for recording data on a magnetic medium. A plurality of spaced physically parallel conductors are mounted on a mounting member and positioned in proximity to the surface of a magnetic recording medium. Means are included for selectively energizing the conductors in a series circuit comprising the selected conductors and alternative conducting means bypassing the non-selected conductors to record data on the magnetic medium.
