Abstract: A magnetic transducer head assembly having a support member in which a magnetic transducer head mounting portion, an integrated circuit element mounting portion and a plurality of lead terminals are supported to be a unitary body by a resin mold, a multichannel magnetic transducer head element mounted on the magnetic transducer head mounting portion, an integrated circuit element mounted on the integrated circuit element mounting portion which integrated circuit element includes a reproducing or recording circuit for the magnetic transducer head element, and wiring for carrying out a predetermined electric connection between the integrated circuit element and the lead terminals.

Abstract: A magnetic transducer head utilizing a thin film magneto-resistance effect element is disclosed in which the amount of a DC bias magnetic field is so selected that only the end portion of the thin film magneto-resistance effect element serving as a contact surface with a magnetic medium is effectively given with sensitivity and the element is saturated in the vicinity of its central portion in its width direction.

Abstract: A magnetic transducer head utilizing magnetoresistance effect is disclosed which includes a thin film magnetoresistance effect element held between, first and second substrates, at least one of the first and second substrates being formed of an electrically conductive material, and a biasing means for the magnetoresistance effect element to satisfy a potential relation V.sub.MR -V.sub.S .ltoreq.0.2 volt, wherein V.sub.MR is a potential of the magnetoresistance effect element, and V.sub.S is a potential of the conductive substrate.
