Abstract
Systems and methods for providing stacked writer leads for magnetic transducers used in disk drives are provided. One such system for providing stacked writer leads for a magnetic transducer includes a writer coil for the magnetic transducer, a first pad on the magnetic transducer, a second pad on the magnetic transducer, a first circuit trace coupled to the first pad and a first terminal of the writer coil, and a second circuit trace coupled to the second pad and a second terminal of the writer coil, where a preselected length of the first circuit trace and the second circuit trace is configured in a stacked configuration where each of the preselected lengths of the first circuit trace and the second circuit trace is positioned at about the same location in spaced apart planes.
