The present invention relates to data storage systems, and more particularly, this invention relates to a magnetic head and system implementing the same, where the head includes a miniskirt design in combination with offset transducer arrays that are selectively tiltable relative to a magnetic medium.
In magnetic storage systems, data is read from and written onto magnetic recording media utilizing magnetic transducers. Data is written on the magnetic recording media by moving a magnetic recording transducer to a position over the media where the data is to be stored. The magnetic recording transducer then generates a magnetic field, which encodes the data into the magnetic media. Data is read from the media by similarly positioning the magnetic read transducer and then sensing the magnetic field of the magnetic media. Read and write operations may be independently synchronized with the movement of the media to ensure that the data can be read from and written to the desired location on the media.
An important and continuing goal in the data storage industry is that of increasing the density of data stored on a medium. For tape storage systems, that goal has led to increasing the track and linear bit density on recording tape, and decreasing the thickness of the magnetic tape medium. However, the development of small footprint, higher performance tape drive systems has created various problems in the design of a tape head assembly for use in such systems.
In a tape drive system, magnetic tape is moved over the surface of the tape head at high speed. Usually the tape head is designed to minimize the spacing between the head and the tape. The spacing between the magnetic head and the magnetic tape is crucial and so goals in these systems are to have the recording gaps of the transducers, which are the source of the magnetic recording flux in near contact with the tape to effect writing sharp transitions, and to have the read elements in near contact with the tape to provide effective coupling of the magnetic field from the tape to the read elements.
The quantity of data stored on a magnetic tape may be increased by increasing the number of data tracks across the tape. More tracks are made possible by reducing feature sizes of the readers and writers, such as by using thin-film fabrication techniques and MR sensors. However, for various reasons, the feature sizes of readers and writers cannot be arbitrarily reduced, and so factors such as lateral tape motion transients and tape lateral expansion and contraction (e.g., orthogonal to the direction of tape travel) must be balanced with reader/writer sizes that provide acceptable written tracks and readback signals. One issue limiting areal density is misregistration caused by tape lateral expansion and contraction. Tape width can vary by up to about 0.1% due to expansion and contraction caused by changes in humidity, tape tension, temperature, aging etc. This is often referred to as tape dimensional instability (TDI).
If the tape is written in one environment and then read back in another, the TDI may prevent the spacing of the tracks on the tape from precisely matching the spacing of the reading elements during readback. In current products, the change in track spacing due to TDI is small compared to the size of the written tracks and is part of the tracking budget that is considered when designing a product. As the tape capacity increases over time, tracks are becoming smaller and TDI is becoming an increasingly larger portion of the tracking budget and this is a limiting factor for growing areal density.
An apparatus according to one embodiment includes a magnetic head. The magnetic head has a first portion and a second portion, the first portion and the second portion together providing a tape bearing surface. The first portion has an opening at least partially encircling the second portion. The second portion has at least one array of transducers. A longitudinal axis of each of the at least one array is defined between opposite ends thereof. The longitudinal axis of each of the at least one array of transducers is oriented at an angle relative to a line oriented orthogonally to the intended direction of tape travel thereacross, the angle being between 0.2° and about 10°. The second portion has a first edge oriented at a second angle between 0.2° and about 10° relative to the line, and a second edge opposite the first edge, the second edge being oriented at a third angle between 0.2° and about 10° relative to the line.
An apparatus according to another embodiment includes a magnetic head. The magnetic head has a first portion and a second portion, the first portion and the second portion together providing a tape bearing surface. The first portion has an opening at least partially encircling the second portion. The second portion has at least one array of transducers. A longitudinal axis of each of the at least one array is defined between opposite ends thereof. The longitudinal axis of each of the at least one array of transducers is oriented at an angle relative to a line oriented orthogonally to an intended direction of tape travel thereacross, the angle being between 0.2° and about 10°. The opening of the first portion has an edge facing the second portion, the edge extending along a second angle between 0.2° and about 10°.
Any of these embodiments may be implemented in a magnetic data storage system such as a tape drive system, which may include a magnetic head, a drive mechanism for passing a magnetic medium (e.g., recording tape) over the magnetic head, and a controller electrically coupled to the magnetic head.
Other aspects and embodiments of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description, which, when taken in conjunction with the drawings, illustrate by way of example the principles of the invention.
The following description is made for the purpose of illustrating the general principles of the present invention and is not meant to limit the inventive concepts claimed herein. Further, particular features described herein can be used in combination with other described features in each of the various possible combinations and permutations.
Unless otherwise specifically defined herein, all terms are to be given their broadest possible interpretation including meanings implied from the specification as well as meanings understood by those skilled in the art and/or as defined in dictionaries, treatises, etc.
It must also be noted that, as used in the specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an” and “the” include plural referents unless otherwise specified.
The following description discloses several preferred embodiments of magnetic storage systems, in which a magnetic head incorporates a miniskirt design in combination with tilted arrays, as well as operation and/or component parts thereof. In various embodiments, the miniskirt design may allow for relative motion between portions of the tape supporting surface, thereby increasing the data read and/or write performance of some of the embodiments presented herein, as will be discussed in further detail below.
In one general embodiment, an apparatus includes a magnetic head. The magnetic head has a first portion and a second portion, the first portion and the second portion together providing a tape bearing surface. The first portion has an opening at least partially encircling the second portion. The second portion has at least one array of transducers. A longitudinal axis of each of the at least one array is defined between opposite ends thereof. The longitudinal axis of each of the at least one array of transducers is oriented at an angle relative to a line oriented orthogonally to the intended direction of tape travel thereacross, the angle being between 0.2° and about 10°.
In another general embodiment, an apparatus includes a magnetic head. The magnetic head has a first portion and a second portion, the first portion and the second portion together providing a tape bearing surface. The tape bearing surface has a generally arcuate cross sectional profile. The first portion has an opening at least partially encircling the second portion. The second portion has at least one array of transducers. A longitudinal axis of each of the at least one array is defined between opposite ends thereof. The longitudinal axis of each of the at least one array of transducers is oriented at an angle relative to a line oriented orthogonal to the intended direction of tape travel thereacross, the angle being between 0.2° and about 10°. The apparatus also includes a mechanism for orienting the second portion to control a transducer pitch presented to a tape, a drive mechanism for passing a magnetic medium over the magnetic head, and a controller electrically coupled to the magnetic head.
As shown, a tape supply cartridge 120 and a take-up reel 121 are provided to support a tape 122. One or more of the reels may form part of a removable cartridge and are not necessarily part of the system 100. The tape drive, such as that illustrated in
Guides 125 guide the tape 122 across the tape head 126. Such tape head 126 is in turn coupled to a controller 128 via a cable 130. The controller 128, may be or include a processor and/or any logic for controlling any subsystem of the drive 100. For example, the controller 128 typically controls head functions such as servo following, data writing, data reading, etc. The controller 128 may operate under logic known in the art, as well as any logic disclosed herein. The controller 128 may be coupled to a memory 136 of any known type, which may store instructions executable by the controller 128. Moreover, the controller 128 may be configured and/or programmable to perform or control some or all of the methodology presented herein. Thus, the controller may be considered configured to perform various operations by way of logic programmed into a chip; software, firmware, or other instructions being available to a processor; etc. and combinations thereof.
The cable 130 may include read/write circuits to transmit data to the head 126 to be recorded on the tape 122 and to receive data read by the head 126 from the tape 122. An actuator 132 controls position of the head 126 relative to the tape 122.
An interface 134 may also be provided for communication between the tape drive 100 and a host (integral or external) to send and receive the data and for controlling the operation of the tape drive 100 and communicating the status of the tape drive 100 to the host, all as will be understood by those of skill in the art.
By way of example,
The substrates 204A are typically constructed of a wear resistant material, such as a ceramic. The closures 204B made of the same or similar ceramic as the substrates 204A.
The readers and writers may be arranged in a piggyback or merged configuration. An illustrative piggybacked configuration comprises a (magnetically inductive) writer transducer on top of (or below) a (magnetically shielded) reader transducer (e.g., a magnetoresistive reader, etc.), wherein the poles of the writer and the shields of the reader are generally separated. An illustrative merged configuration comprises one reader shield in the same physical layer as one writer pole (hence, “merged”). The readers and writers may also be arranged in an interleaved configuration. Alternatively, each array of channels may be readers or writers only. Any of these arrays may contain one or more servo track readers for reading servo data on the medium.
In this example, the tape 208 includes 4 to 22 data bands, e.g., with 8 data bands and 9 servo tracks 210, as shown in
Several R/W pairs 222 may be present, such as 8, 16, 32 pairs, etc. The R/W pairs 222 as shown are linearly aligned in a direction generally orthogonal to a direction of tape travel thereacross. However, the pairs may also be aligned diagonally, etc. Servo readers 212 are positioned on the outside of the array of R/W pairs, the function of which is well known.
Generally, the magnetic tape medium moves in either a forward or reverse direction as indicated by arrow 220. The magnetic tape medium and head assembly 200 operate in a transducing relationship in the manner well-known in the art. The piggybacked MR head assembly 200 includes two thin-film modules 224 and 226 of generally identical construction.
Modules 224 and 226 are joined together with a space present between closures 204B thereof (partially shown) to form a single physical unit to provide read-while-write capability by activating the writer of the leading module and reader of the trailing module aligned with the writer of the leading module parallel to the direction of tape travel relative thereto. When a module 224, 226 of a piggyback head 200 is constructed, layers are formed in the gap 218 created above an electrically conductive substrate 204A (partially shown), e.g., of AlTiC, in generally the following order for the R/W pairs 222: an insulating layer 236, a first shield 232 typically of an iron alloy such as NiFe (−), CZT or Al—Fe—Si (Sendust), a sensor 234 for sensing a data track on a magnetic medium, a second shield 238 typically of a nickel-iron alloy (e.g., ˜80/20 at % NiFe, also known as permalloy), first and second writer pole tips 228, 230, and a coil (not shown). The sensor may be of any known type, including those based on MR, GMR, AMR, tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR), etc.
The first and second writer poles 228, 230 may be fabricated from high magnetic moment materials such as ˜45/55 NiFe. Note that these materials are provided by way of example only, and other materials may be used. Additional layers such as insulation between the shields and/or pole tips and an insulation layer surrounding the sensor may be present. Illustrative materials for the insulation include alumina and other oxides, insulative polymers, etc.
The configuration of the tape head 126 according to one embodiment includes multiple modules, preferably three or more. In a write-read-write (W-R-W) head, outer modules for writing flank one or more inner modules for reading. Referring to
In one embodiment, the tape bearing surfaces 308, 310, 312 of the first, second and third modules 302, 304, 306 lie on about parallel planes (which is meant to include parallel and nearly parallel planes, e.g., between parallel and tangential as in
Where the tape bearing surfaces 308, 310, 312 lie along parallel or nearly parallel yet offset planes, intuitively, the tape should peel off of the tape bearing surface 308 of the leading module 302. However, the vacuum created by the skiving edge 318 of the leading module 302 has been found by experimentation to be sufficient to keep the tape adhered to the tape bearing surface 308 of the leading module 302. The trailing edge 320 of the leading module 302 (the end from which the tape leaves the leading module 302) is the approximate reference point which defines the wrap angle α2 over the tape bearing surface 310 of the second module 304. The tape stays in close proximity to the tape bearing surface until close to the trailing edge 320 of the leading module 302. Accordingly, read and/or write elements 322 may be located near the trailing edges of the outer modules 302, 306. These embodiments are particularly adapted for write-read-write applications.
A benefit of this and other embodiments described herein is that, because the outer modules 302, 306 are fixed at a determined offset from the second module 304, the inner wrap angle α2 is fixed when the modules 302, 304, 306 are coupled together or are otherwise fixed into a head. The inner wrap angle α2 is approximately tan−1 (δ/W) where δ is the height difference between the planes of the tape bearing surfaces 308, 310 and W is the width between the opposing ends of the tape bearing surfaces 308, 310. An illustrative inner wrap angle α2 is in a range of about 0.3° to about 1.1°, though can be any angle required by the design.
Beneficially, the inner wrap angle α2 on the side of the module 304 receiving the tape (leading edge) will be larger than the inner wrap angle α3 on the trailing edge, as the tape 315 rides above the trailing module 306. This difference is generally beneficial as a smaller α3 tends to oppose what has heretofore been a steeper exiting effective wrap angle.
Note that the tape bearing surfaces 308, 312 of the outer modules 302, 306 are positioned to achieve a negative wrap angle at the trailing edge 320 of the leading module 302. This is generally beneficial in helping to reduce friction due to contact with the trailing edge 320, provided that proper consideration is given to the location of the crowbar region that forms in the tape where it peels off the head. This negative wrap angle also reduces flutter and scrubbing damage to the elements on the leading module 302. Further, at the trailing module 306, the tape 315 flies over the tape bearing surface 312 so there is virtually no wear on the elements when tape is moving in this direction. Particularly, the tape 315 entrains air and so will not significantly ride on the tape bearing surface 312 of the third module 306 (some contact may occur). This is permissible, because the leading module 302 is writing while the trailing module 306 is idle.
Writing and reading functions are performed by different modules at any given time. In one embodiment, the second module 304 includes a plurality of data and optional servo readers 331 and no writers. The first and third modules 302, 306 include a plurality of writers 322 and no data readers, with the exception that the outer modules 302, 306 may include optional servo readers. The servo readers may be used to position the head during reading and/or writing operations. The servo reader(s) on each module are typically located towards the end of the array of readers or writers.
By having only readers or side by side writers and servo readers in the gap between the substrate and closure, the gap length can be substantially reduced. Typical heads have piggybacked readers and writers, where the writer is formed above each reader. A typical gap is 20-35 microns. However, irregularities on the tape may tend to droop into the gap and create gap erosion. Thus, the smaller the gap is the better. The smaller gap enabled herein exhibits fewer wear related problems.
In some embodiments, the second module 304 has a closure, while the first and third modules 302, 306 do not have a closure. Where there is no closure, preferably a hard coating is added to the module. One preferred coating is diamond-like carbon (DLC).
In the embodiment shown in
With reduced-thickness ceramic or thin film closures 334, 336 or no closures on the outer modules 302, 306, the write-to-read gap spacing can be reduced to less than about 1 mm, e.g., about 0.75 mm, or 50% less than commonly-used LTO tape head spacing. The open space between the modules 302, 304, 306 can still be set to approximately 0.5 to 0.6 mm, which in some embodiments is ideal for stabilizing tape motion over the second module 304.
Depending on tape tension and stiffness, it may be desirable to angle the tape bearing surfaces of the outer modules relative to the tape bearing surface of the second module.
Typically, the tape wrap angles may be set about midway between the embodiments shown in
Additional aspects of the embodiments shown in
A 32 channel version of a multi-module head 126 may use cables 350 having leads on the same or smaller pitch as current 16 channel piggyback LTO modules, or alternatively the connections on the module may be organ-keyboarded for a 50% reduction in cable span. Over-under, writing pair unshielded cables may be used for the writers, which may have integrated servo readers.
The outer wrap angles α1 may be set in the drive, such as by guides of any type known in the art, such as adjustable rollers, slides, etc. or alternatively by outriggers, which are integral to the head. For example, rollers having an offset axis may be used to set the wrap angles. The offset axis creates an orbital arc of rotation, allowing precise alignment of the wrap angle α1.
To assemble any of the embodiments described above, conventional u-beam assembly can be used. Accordingly, the mass of the resultant head may be maintained or even reduced relative to heads of previous generations. In other embodiments, the modules may be constructed as a unitary body. Those skilled in the art, armed with the present teachings, will appreciate that other known methods of manufacturing such heads may be adapted for use in constructing such heads.
As noted above, tape lateral expansion and contraction present many challenges to increasing data track density on conventional products. Conventional products have attempted to compensate for tape lateral expansion and contraction by controlling tape width by tension and improving the characteristics of the media itself. However, these methods fail to fully cancel the tape lateral expansion and contraction, and actually lead to other problems, including tape stretch and media cost increases, respectively.
Thus, it would be desirable to develop a tape drive system able to read and/or write tracks onto the tape in the proper position, regardless of the extent of tape lateral expansion and/or contraction at any given time. Various embodiments described and/or suggested herein overcome the foregoing challenges of conventional products, by orienting at least two modules of a tape drive system, such as by rotating, pivoting and/or tilting, thereby selectively altering the pitch of the transducers in their arrays, as will soon become apparent.
By selectively orienting a module, the pitch of the transducers on the module is thereby altered, preferably aligning the transducers with the tracks on a tape for a given tape lateral expansion and/or contraction. Tape contraction (shrinkage) can be dealt with by orienting a nominally non-offset head, but tape expansion (dilation) cannot. Thus, to accommodate both shrinkage and dilation about a “nominal,” the head must be statically positioned at a nominal angle of at least approximately 0.2° as will be explained below. Thereafter, smaller angular adjustments (e.g., about 1° or lower, but could be more) may be made to the already-oriented module in order to compensate for any variation of the tape lateral expansion and/or contraction, thereby keeping the transducers aligned with tracks on the tape.
Referring to
In
On the other hand, when the tape experiences tape lateral expansion, the data tracks on the tape expand as well. As a result, the transducers on the module would no longer be favorably aligned with the data tracks on the tape if no adjustments were made. With reference to
In some preferred embodiments, magnetic tape systems include two or more arrays of transducers, on one or more modules, where each array has multiple transducers typically arranged in a row. Depending on the desired embodiment, the multiple rows of transducers may allow the system to read verify during the write process, but is not limited thereto. As mentioned above, the foregoing conventional challenges may be overcome, e.g., by rotating a given module about an axis orthogonal to the plane in which its array resides (e.g., parallel to the plane of the tape bearing surface), thereby selectively altering the pitch of the transducers in the array as presented to tape. Moreover, similar effects may be achieved by changing the orientation of the array of transducers within the module itself according to another embodiment.
By providing a system that compensates for tape lateral expansion and/or contraction, various embodiments enable use of wider readers, resulting in a better signal to noise ratio (SNR), and/or smaller data tracks, thereby enabling in a higher capacity per unit area of the media.
Furthermore, a miniskirt design which may, for example, have independently positionable portions of a magnetic head, may be incorporated with any of the embodiments described herein. The miniskirt may provide a low running friction tape support surface that reduces friction compared to a conventional head. In addition, the miniskirt enables the use of smaller, lower mass modules (relative to a module that spans the entire tape width), and this in turn may provide higher track following performance.
The miniskirt design may preferably allow relative motion between portions of a magnetic head which together may provide a tape bearing surface. As described above, this may desirably increase the data read and/or write performance of various embodiments presented herein by improving compensation for tape skew; shifting (as detected using position error signal (PES) processing); TDI, e.g., lateral contraction and/or expansion, etc.; etc. Moreover, according to further embodiments, when paired with selectively tiltable data transducers as described above with reference to
Furthermore, the miniskirt (referred to below as the “first portion”) may reduce running friction, especially in embodiments where the miniskirt has an arcuate cross sectional profile, thereby promoting entrainment of air between the running tape and miniskirt.
Moreover, the miniskirt may reduce static friction, also known as stiction, especially where the tape bearing surface of the miniskirt has a surface roughness greater than 15 nm, e.g., 15-25 nm. The surface of the miniskirt may have a higher surface roughness than the tape bearing surface of a module having a transducer array.

As illustrated in
With continued reference to
Referring to the illustrative embodiment depicted in
In a preferred embodiment, the first edge 1128 of the tape bearing surfaces 1102, 1104 is a skiving edge. This “skiving” edge serves to prevent air from being drawn into the gap between the tape bearing surface and the tape, so that atmospheric pressure pushes the tape into contact with the transducers. Even a small amount of rounding or slope at the first edge may generate an air bearing, separating the tape from the tape bearing surface, thereby reducing the achievable recording density due to spacing loss. Moreover, in other embodiments, a skiving edge may reduce tape steering, skew, etc. when in use. In some embodiments, before the tape passes over a first edge of the tape bearing surface, the tape may pass over an additional separated portion, or “outrigger,” which favorably positions a tape to embodiment the skiving edge at a desirable wrap angle.
In a preferred embodiment, the first and second edges 1128, 1130 of the modules are of the same type (e.g., shape, texture, etc.) such that the tape tracks the same over the first edge of the tape bearing surface, as it does over the second edge of the tape bearing surface. This is particularly favorable when tape is run over a head bidirectionally, e.g., the first edge of a tape bearing surface may be the leading or trailing edge, depending on the desired direction of tape travel. This improves read and/or write accuracy, reduces noise, increases recording density, etc. However, in other embodiments the first and/or second edges of one or more of the modules may have a different shape, texture, etc. than one or more of the other first and/or second edges, depending on the desired embodiment.
With continued reference to
According to one embodiment, one or both the arrays of transducers may be in one or more chiplets, which may be thin film structures that are smaller than the module itself, and coupled thereto. A chiplet may include at least one of: a read transducer and a write transducer, or any combination thereof. Moreover, a chiplet is preferably coupled to a carrier, the carrier providing a portion of the tape bearing surface. In different embodiments, a chiplet may be coupled to the carrier using an adhesive, an electrostatically dissipative adhesive, or any other coupling mechanism which would be apparent to one skilled in the art upon reading the present description. Moreover, one or more of the chiplets may be longitudinally positioned about orthogonal to the intended direction of tape travel, or at an angle relative thereto. A chiplet may be an independently formed chip that was created separately and away from the carrier, or a chip formed on the carrier but not extending the full span of the magnetic tape passing thereacross.
In a further embodiment, one or more of the modules for a given head may be formed full span.
The arrays of transducers may be formed by known processes.
The first and/or second edges 1128, 1130 may be defined by any known process, such as dicing, lapping, polishing, etc.
With continued reference to
The two modules 1124, 1126, are preferably fixed such that the first and second edges 1128, 1130 of tape bearing surface 1102, are oriented about parallel to the first and second edges 1128, 1130 of tape bearing surface 1104, respectively. Therefore, the first edge 1128 for both tape bearing surfaces 1102, 1104, may be oriented about orthogonal to an intended direction 1120 of tape travel thereacross.
In a preferred embodiment, the modules are fixed such that the distance between the arrays of transducers in a direction parallel to the intended direction of tape travel is minimized. Reducing the spacing between the transducers in a direction parallel to the intended direction of tape travel improves the recording quality for a given system, e.g., by reducing noise while reading and/or writing, minimizing the effects of tape skew thereby keeping the transducers within their respective data tracks, etc. Therefore, with continued reference to
With continued reference to
However, according to another embodiment, which is in no way intended to limit the invention, the second edge 1130 for one or both the tape bearing surfaces 1102, 1104 may be oriented about parallel to the first edge 1128 of one or both the tape bearing surfaces 1102, 1104. As illustrated in
Moreover, referring again to
As referred to above, the modules may be set to a nominal angle in the drive so that the transducers of the arrays are preferably aligned along the data tracks 906 of a tape 902 having nominal tape conditions (see θnom of
According to different embodiments, the first and or second edges 1128, 1130 may be set to a nominal orientation when a new tape is loaded, when the tape is stopped, when a read and/or write operation is initiated, etc. However, once the tape no longer has nominal conditions, e.g., the tape begins to run; fluctuations in tape skew, tape lateral expansion or contraction is present, PES, etc.; etc., the modules may be selectively oriented from the nominal orientation, such that the transducers are preferably kept within the data tracks of the tape for the present conditions. This follows the reasoning presented above in relation to
In one embodiment, which is in no way intended to limit the invention, the modules may be oriented from the nominal angle to a desired angle during read and/or write operation. Accordingly, the modules may be oriented during run time to compensate for fluctuating conditions, e.g., tape skew, PES variations, etc. In different embodiments, the modules may be selectively oriented periodically; upon request; instantaneously; when a limit is reached e.g., a time limit, tape lateral contraction, tape lateral expansion, etc.; etc., depending on the desired embodiment.
Referring again to
With continued reference to
Angles of orientation greater than within the specified range (e.g., greater than about 10°) may be undesirable as the higher angles may cause steering of the tape when used. However, as described above, the angles of orientation within the specified range unexpectedly and unforeseeably have been found via experimentation to not result in steering of the tape. Moreover, it is more difficult to distinguish between skew and tape lateral expansion and/or contraction when angles of orientation of the tape bearing surfaces are greater than within the specified range. This may cause difficulties when matching the dimensional conditions of the tape and/or orientation of the tape bearing surfaces of the current operation to that of the previous operation (explained in further detail below). It should also be noted that the angles φ, λ illustrated in
Depending on the desired embodiment, the modules themselves may also be offset to effect the shifting of the transducer arrays, e.g., as shown by the offset (offset) in
With continued reference to
The system 1100 further includes a controller 1116. In one embodiment, the controller 1116 may be configured to control the tape dimensional instability compensation mechanism 1114 for orienting the modules based on a physical and/or running state of the tape, e.g., lateral expansion and/or contraction, skew, PES, etc. According to various embodiments, the state of expansion of the tape may be based on a readback signal of the tape, e.g., servo signals, data signals, a combination of both, etc. In another embodiment, the dimensional conditions of the tape and/or orientation of the modules when the tape was written may be retrieved e.g., from a database, cartridge memory, etc., and the orientation thereof may be set based thereon to about match the transducer pitch of the current operation to that of the previous operation.
In various embodiments, additional logic, computer code, commands, etc., or combinations thereof, may be used to control the tape dimensional instability compensation mechanism 1114 for adjusting the orientation of the modules based on a skew of the tape. Moreover, any of the embodiments described and/or suggested herein may be combined with various functional methods, depending on the desired embodiment.
In one embodiment, the spacer member 1150 includes an electro-magnetic shield 1152 for shielding the array of transducers from the second array of transducers. Such shield may be formed of any suitable material known in the art, such as NiFe, CoFe, copper, aluminum, etc. and combinations thereof. The shield may extend from the tape bearing surface, or some point therebelow, in a height direction (into the tape bearing surface), preferably for a distance that provides the desired shielding effect. For example, the shield may have a height similar to that of shields of the transducers.
Although two modules are illustrated in
As alluded to above, a miniskirt design may be incorporated with any of the embodiments described herein, thereby allowing relative motion between portions of a magnetic head, in some embodiments, which together may provide a tape bearing surface. As previously described, this may increase the data read and/or write performance of various embodiments presented herein, e.g., by improving compensation for tape skew, position error signal (PES), TDI, etc. Moreover, according to further embodiments, when paired with selectively tiltable arrays of data transducers e.g., as described above with reference to the embodiments in

Moreover, the arrays 1106, 1108 of transducers 1110 are positioned in a canted configuration, such that the longitudinal axis 1112, 1113 of each of the arrays 1106, 1108 are oriented at an angle φ relative to a line 1310 oriented orthogonally to the intended direction 1120 of tape travel thereacross. According to various embodiments, the angle φ may be between greater than about 0.2° and about 10°, but could be higher or lower e.g., to compensate for tape lateral expansion, skew, PES, etc., depending on the desired embodiment.

According to yet another embodiment,
In preferred embodiments, the angle φ keeps the transducers 1110 within their respective data tracks on the tape 902, e.g., at least for a nominal tape width. Moreover, small angular adjustments may additionally be made to the modules themselves to compensate for changing tape conditions as previously described. However, with continued reference to the apparatus 1300 of
Looking now to the partial cross-sectional view of
According to one embodiment, the first and second portions 1304, 1306 may be selectively positionable together for compensating for tape skew and for track following. For example, the transducer pitch presented to a tape of the first and second portions 1304, 1306, in addition to the positioning of the first and second portions 1304, 1306 in a direction orthogonal to an intended direction of tape travel (e.g., relative to data tracks on a tape), as a single unit may be adjusted together to follow tape skew, TDI and track following.
However, according to other embodiments, the first and second portions 1304, 1306 may be selectively positionable relative to each other. For example, the second portion may be independently positionable relative to the first portion, e.g., for compensating for tape skew and/or for track following.
In one embodiment, the first and second portions 1304, 1306 may be selectively positionable together for compensating for tape skew, while the second portion may also be selectively positionable in a direction orthogonal to the intended direction 1120 of tape travel, e.g., for track following. For example, the transducer pitch presented to a tape of the first and second portions 1304, 1306 may be adjusted together to follow tape skew, while the second portion 1306 track follows and compensates TDI within the first portion 1304.
In yet another embodiment, the first portion 1304 may be fixed in the apparatus 1300 thereby preventing movement of the first portion 1304 relative to the bulk of the apparatus 1300. However, the second portion 1306 is selectively positionable for compensating for tape skew and for track following.
In a further embodiment, the first portion 1304 is coupled to a coarse actuator that may move the first and second portions along a line oriented orthogonally to the intended direction 1120 of tape travel. The first portion may not be tiltable relative to the line. However, the second portion 1306 may be selectively positionable for compensating for tape skew and for track following.
As alluded to above, by incorporating the ability to selectively compensate for TDI, tape skew and/or track following by adjustment of only the first portion, only the second portion, or both the first and second portions depending on the desired embodiment, the efficiency of the apparatus 1300 improves greatly. For example, if a tape is being read and/or written to and the tape experiences skew that causes the data tracks to become misaligned with the transducers of the apparatus, but not enough skew to cause the tape to be in danger of sliding off the edge of the overall TBS, adjustments may be made to the positioning of the second portion of the apparatus such that the transducers of the second portion may be realigned with the data tracks on the skewed tape without having to adjust the positioning of the entire TBS when appropriate, e.g., both the first and the second portions of the magnetic head.
In various embodiments, the relative motion between the first and second portions 1304, 1306, or lack thereof, as explained in the embodiments above may be achieved by incorporating a number of different designs.
In one embodiment, the entire assembly may be selectively positionable together, e.g., to compensate for TDI, tape skew, and track following. According to one embodiment, to achieve this uniform positioning, the first and second portions 1304, 1306 may be coupled to each other, e.g., using adhesives, straps, fasteners, braces, etc., such that the first and second portions are fixed relative to each other. However, in another embodiment, the mechanism 1312 may be programmed (e.g., controlled) by a controller to position the first and second portions 1304, 1306 in the same manner. In other words, the mechanism may exert a relative amount of force on each of the first and second portions 1304, 1306 in an appropriate direction e.g., to ensure that the transducer pitch presented to a tape for each of the portions 1304, 1306 is about the same.
Therefore, referring again to
Although only one mechanism 1312 is shown in
With continued reference to
Furthermore, although the second portion 1306 of the apparatus 1300 is illustrated as including modules 1124, 1126 each having an array 1106, 1108 of transducers 1110 respectively, in other embodiments the second portion 1306 may have only one module and/or one array of transducers, three arrays of transducers, four or more arrays of transducers, etc.
Moreover, the second portion 1306 may protrude beyond the TBS of the first portion 1304 towards the tape, e.g., by up to about 1 millimeter.
Referring now to
Furthermore, the second portion 1406 has a first edge 1408 oriented orthogonal to the intended direction 1120 of tape travel, and a second edge 1410 opposite the first edge 1408. However, unlike the second portion 1306 shown in
Looking now to the embodiment depicted in
According to various embodiments, any of the arrays of transducers and/or second portion 1406 from either embodiment depicted in
Referring to
According to an exemplary embodiment, a method for orienting modules having transducers, may be implemented in accordance with one embodiment. Such method may be implemented by the controller of
According to one embodiment, the method may include determining a desired pitch for transducers for reading and/or writing to a magnetic tape. Moreover, the method may optionally include determining a state of expansion of the tape. According to one embodiment, the state of the tape may be used to determine the desired pitch for transducers when reading and/or writing. An exemplary mechanism for establishing the proper pitch is to use the timing interval read by two servo readers to determine the state of the tape, e.g., contracted, expanded or nominal. Although a preferred mode is to use servo data, this is not required. Thus, it may be desirable to determine the state of the tape, e.g., by incorporating any of the embodiments described and/or suggested herein and/or known processes, when determining the desired pitch. However, according to other embodiments, the pitch may be determined using any embodiment described and/or suggested herein, or combinations thereof.
The method further includes orienting a head to achieve the desired pitch, the head having a tape bearing surface having a first edge; and an array of transducers in and/or adjacent the tape bearing surface, the array of transducers being longitudinally oriented at an angle relative to the first edge, the angle being between greater than 0.2° and about 8°. In a preferred embodiment, the first edge may be nominally oriented orthogonally to a direction of tape travel thereacross.
In another embodiment, various steps of the method may be performed concurrently. For example, in one embodiment the proper transducer pitch may be based on data signals. One way to implement this is by first setting the transducer pitch at a nominal value by selecting a nominal angle of orientation, and then adjusting the orientation thereof to obtain a better readback quality across the read channels. The quality may be determined for example by finding the lowest error rate, best signal to noise level, etc.
As an option, the system may continue or periodically monitor the appropriate signals and adjust the orientation. Adjustments can be performed any time, such as during an initialization period prior to reading or writing user data, during readback or writing operations, etc.
It will be clear that the various features of the foregoing systems and/or methodologies may be combined in any way, creating a plurality of combinations from the descriptions presented above.
