Embodiments of the present invention help to prevent dropout of a head slider from an micro electrical mechanical system (MEMS) and damage of the MEMS. In an embodiment of the present invention, a suspension for a slider dynamic electric test (DET) comprises an MEMS for supporting a head slider. The MEMS has a clamper for holding a head slider and the clamper moved by an external force can attach or detach a head slider. The suspension comprises limiters for limiting the clamper's lateral movement. The limiters limit the clamper's undesirable movement, which prevents the clamper's lateral movement in attaching a head slider, a head slider's dropout and the MEMS's damage caused by a contact with a magnetic disk, or a head slider's dropout and the MEMS's damage in handling.

In an apparatus for fabricating a carbon coating, an object such as a magnetic recording medium is disposed on a side of an electrode connected to a high-frequency power supply. Ultrasonic vibrations are supplied to the object. Discharge is generated between the electrode connected to the high-frequency power supply and a grounded electrode to fabricate a carbon coating on the surface of the object. Also, an electrode interval is set to 6 mm or less, pressure between the electrodes is set to 15 Torr to 100 Torr, whereby high-density plasma is generated to form an ion sheath on an anode side. Therefore, a coating is fabricated on the surface of the object by bombardment of ions.

Apparatus for fabricating coating and method of fabricating the coating

Embodiments of the invention provide an inexpensive magnetic head tester employing component parts of a production HDD and capable of exercising functions very close to those of a production HDD. In one embodiment, a magnetic head tester employs the VCM actuator and the control circuit of a production HDD and has a lightweight, simple HGA fixing mechanism mounted on an actuator arm. The HGA fixing mechanism fixes an HGA to the actuator arm by a method using a very light holding spring mounted on the arm, a method of mechanically clamping an HGA by using air pressure, or a method of fixing an HGA to the arm by elastically deforming a rubber clamping member by air pressure. Servo control is achieved by the actuator of a production VCM. An end part of the VCM actuator is stopped by a stopping mechanism and is held by a holding spring to prevent the runaway of the VCM actuator. Servo control is performed by balancing the driving force of the VCM and the resilience of the spring.

An administrator of a systemsells an own company's or another company's commodity to a user via a facsimile, telephone, and electronic mail in order to deal with another company's commodity and support and correspond to diversifying customer purchase needs without suffering from inventory. A user information storage deviceis provided so as to store an amount of payment for a commodity and support, which is determined by a user and dealer, together with user information. A buying-in information storage deviceis provided so as to store a buying-in price of the commodity and support from a provider thereof. A reception deviceis provided so as to receive purchase request information from a user. A reception processing deviceis provided so as to consolidate the purchase request information and perform an order acceptance process in accordance with the purchase request information. A commodity transportation instruction devicerefers to various information stored in the user and buying-in information storage devicesandin accordance with the order acceptance process, and instruct the provider to either transport the commodity or provide the support. The provider acts on the instruction by executing transportation or provision to the user. The administrator manages and sells an own company's commodity.

In a cellular telephone provided with a receiving circuit of a direct conversion type, a passive low-pass filter is arranged between a mixer for an I-channel and a base band circuit for removing interference waves of or above a channel next to a channel neighboring to the I-channel, and another passive low-pass filter is arranged between a mixer for a Q-channel and the base band circuit for removing interference waves of or above a channel next to a channel neighboring to the Q-channel. Since the low-pass filters for removing the interference waves of or above the channel next to the neighboring channel are of a differential type, the circuit scale can be small, and the power consumption is small. Since the interference waves are removed by the passive low-pass filters and the active low-pass filters, only the desired channel can be reliably received.
