Abstract
A head suspension assembly, for use in a magnetic rigid disk storage device, has an electrical conductor adherently secured along the length of the suspension and insulated from the surface of the load beam by means of a layer of dielectric insulating material. The suspension assembly is fabricated with capacitive coupling reducing areas or apertures to reduce the capacitive coupling between the electrical conductors and the metal surface of the head suspension.
