Design and analysis of disk bump to Improve unloading performance

Load/Unload(L/UL) technology includes the benefits, that is, increased areal density, reduced power consumption and improved shock resistance. The main issues of L/UL are no slider-disk contact and no media damage. To make sure L/UL stability, we consider many design parameters in L/UL systems. This paper is focused on disk design parameters through designing a disk bump in outer guard band(OGB). In the case of bump design on the disk, we create a bump by changing bump design parameters as like size and amplitude. From dynamic analysis, we choose optimal bump model with the highest flying height and the longest rising time. When a slider passes over a bump in dynamic system, the slider rise above bump according to bump shape. On the basis of this rising effect on the bump, we apply bump design to classical L/UL system having slider-disk contact possibility. This study is based on the simulation, we finally realize improved slider unloading performance by applying slider dynamic result on unload simulation.
