Title: Innovations by Jun Hashimoto in Data Storage Technology

Introduction

Jun Hashimoto is a notable inventor based in Kanagawa, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the field of data storage technology, particularly in the area of heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) and microwave-assisted magnetic recording (MAMR). His innovative approach has led to advancements that enhance the performance and reliability of data storage devices.

Latest Patents

Jun Hashimoto holds a patent for a "Write Current and Media Heater Control for Heat or Microwave Assisted Magnetic Recording." This invention focuses on a data storage device and method that improves flying height control (TFC) in a HAMR or MAMR system. The system employs three heat sources to control the head protrusion, which includes write coil current, TFC heater current, and media exciter power. The TFC heater is designed to pre-heat the write head, while the media exciter can operate at either a zero level or a low level below that required for the HAMR or MAMR process. This optional operation serves as an additional heat source for the write head. The data writing process begins only after the head protrusion has been increased and stabilized. During the writing phase, the media exciter power is increased to the necessary level to heat the disk medium, while the TFC heater power is slightly reduced to maintain a constant total heat into the head.

Career Highlights

Jun Hashimoto is currently employed at HGST Netherlands B.V., where he continues to develop innovative solutions in data storage technology. His work has been instrumental in advancing the capabilities of modern data storage systems.
