TDA5360
Key Features
- 12 channels design for Single-stripe (SAL and GMR) Read / Thin-film Write heads
- Design target 350 Mbps, for d=0 (16 / 17) rate code
- Differential Hybrid sense Reader architecture
- MR element biased by direct programmable constant Power or constant Current
- Voltage driven Writer architecture
- MR read / inductive write heads biased at ground level
- Short rise and fall time with near rail to rail voltage swing
- Dual power supplies : +5.0 V and -5.0 V
- On-chip AC couplings eliminate MR head DC and DC offset voltage
- Extensive programmability of Write current wave overshoot
