Patent abstract
The structure for a closely spaced, coplanar tape head array is disclosed. Narrow pitch is obtained by utilizing an orthogonal backgap structure, wherein the width of the backgap is less than the depth, thereby narrowing the footprint of individual head structures. The increased cross sectional area of the orthogonal backgap and revised yoke design ensure sufficient magnetic field strength at the write gap of each head.
