  • Publication number: 20240071413
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to a dual free layer (DFL) read head and methods of forming thereof. In one embodiment, a method of forming a DFL read head comprises depositing a DFL sensor, defining a stripe height of the DFL sensor, depositing a rear bias (RB) adjacent to the DFL sensor, defining a track width of the DFL sensor and the RB, and depositing synthetic antiferromagnetic (SAF) soft bias (SB) side shields adjacent to the DFL sensor. In another embodiment, a method of forming a DFL read head comprises depositing a DFL sensor, defining a track width of the DFL sensor, depositing SAF SB side shields adjacent to the DFL sensor, defining a stripe height of the DFL sensor and the SAF SB side shield, depositing a RB adjacent to the DFL sensor and the SAF SB side shield, and defining a track width of the RB.

  • Patent number: 9423780
    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for performing a real-time, in-the-field switching-sequence simulation for a power system that includes a plurality of switching devices. During operation, the system receives a request, from a user at a handheld device, to perform an operation on a switching device in the power system. In response to the request, the system identifies the switching device from the plurality of switching devices, obtains instant status information associated with the plurality of switching devices, and runs a simulation, at the hand-held device, based on the instant status information and the identified switch device. The system then determines whether the operation is allowed based on an outcome of the simulation.

  • Patent number: 8972236
    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for performing a real-time, in-the-field switching-sequence simulation for a power system that includes a plurality of switching devices. During operation, the system receives, at a hand-held device, topology information associated with the power system, a set of user-definable rules, and a request to perform an operation on a switching device in the power system. In response to the request, the system identifies the switching device from the plurality of switching devices, obtains instant status information associated with the plurality of switching devices, and runs a simulation based on the topology information, the user-definable rules, the status information, and the identified switch device. The system determines whether the operation is allowed based on an outcome of the simulation.
