Appeal No. 96-3614
Application 08/259,154
level with, the pole portion 211. Like the first two
embodiments, these embodiments employ organic resin coil-
insulating films 251-253.
We note that Figures 5 and 6 do not include notation
specifying the thickness of substrate-insulating layer 112,
122, which is shown having a thickness greater than that of
substrate-insulating layer 102 in Figure 2, which is labeled
"0.5-3Fm." Nor is the thickness of substrate-insulating layer
112, 122 specified in the detailed description of Figures 5
and 6. However, originally filed claims 4-6, which are
directed to the Figure 5 and 6 embodiments, depended upon
originally filed claim 1, which specified that the substrate-
insulating film has a thickness in the range of 0.5 Fm - 3 Fm.
This relationship is also set forth in amended claims 1 and 4-
6, which are before us on appeal.
The claims
Claims 1-3, the only independent claims, read as follows:
1. A thin film magnetic head which comprises:
a slider and a thin film magnetic transducing element,
wherein said slider is provided with an insulating film
directly formed on a surface of an electrically conductive
substrate, a thickness of said insulating film being in the
range of 0.5 Fm
