Abstract: An isolated configuration dimmer circuit of a light emitting diode (LED) applied to a conventional triac dimmer and a dimmer method are provided. When a dimmer phase angle of the triac dimmer is regulated, a second side winding of a transformer of the isolated configuration produces a pulse width corresponding to a modulated alternating current (AC) voltage, so as to regulate the pulse width of a driving signal output by the second side winding of the transformer. In addition, the dimmer circuit regulates the magnitude of a current flowing through the light emitting diode (LED) according to the pulse width corresponding to the modulated AC voltage. Accordingly, the dimmer circuit regulates the pulse width and the magnitude of the current flowing through the LED according to the dimmer phase angle of the triac dimmer. Therefore, a dimmer range of the LED can be increased.

Abstract: A magnetic head inspection device inspects the write track width of a thin film magnetic head in a phase as early as possible during the manufacturing process. A recording signal (excitation signal) is input from bonding pads to the thin film magnetic head in a rowbar, and the magnetic field generated by the write pole (element) included in the thin film magnetic head is observed directly by using a magnetic force microscope (MFM), a scanning Hall probe microscope (SHPM), or a scanning magneto resistance effect microscope (SMRM) that performs a scanning motion at a position equivalent to the flying height of the magnetic head. In this manner, a shape of the generated magnetic field instead of the physical shape of the write pole (element) is measured; thus, a non-destructive inspection can be performed on the effective magnetic track width.
