Abstract :
This paper presents the results of work being considered by the IDEMA ESD Standards Working Group to develop a standard for the ESD stress testing, measurement and evaluation of the ESD susceptibility and sensitivity of magnetoresistive recording (MR) heads. No ESD standard presently exists for MR heads.
