Abstract
A thin-film magnetic head has a connecting tab (22), provided on a substrate (23) for the connection of an external connecting track (16). In the region of a central portion (21) of the connecting tab an auxiliary layer (26) is provided between the connecting tab (22) and the substrate (23), as a result of which the central portion (21) of the connecting tab is located at a larger distance from the substrate than coating portions (24) of a shielding layer (25). This provides a proper contact between the external connecting track (16) and the connecting tab (22), even if the external connecting track (16) is in not such a good position with respect to the connecting tab (22).
