          Application 08/259,154                                                      


          - 3 Fm, and said thin film magnetic transducing element is                  
          formed on said insulating film and has a thin film magnetic                 
          circuit including a magnetic film and a coil film, wherein                  
          said insulating film is formed between said electrically                    
          conductive substrate and said magnetic film and allows an                   
          equipotential to be formed therebetween because of its                      
          thickness, and wherein said coil film is electrically                       
          insulated by an organic insulating resinous film having an                  
          insulation resistance sufficient to electrically insulate said              
          coil film in view of the thickness of said insulating film.                 

               2.   A thin film magnetic head which comprises:                        
               a slider and a thin film transducing element, wherein                  
          said slider has an electrically conductive substrate as its                 
          major portion, and said thin film magnetic transducing element              
          comprises a magnetic film and a coil film, a surface of said                
          magnetic film being directly formed on said electrically                    
          conductive substrate so as to form an equipotential                         
          therebetween, and wherein said coil film is electrically                    
          insulated by an organic insulating resinous film having an                  
          insulation resistance sufficient to electrically insulate said              
          coil film in view of the absence of an insulating film between              
          said magnetic film and said electrically conductive substrate.              

               3.   A thin film magnetic head which comprises:                        
                    a slider and a thin film magnetic transducing                     
          element, wherein said slider comprises an electrically                      
          conductive substrate as its major portion and an insulating                 
          film formed on said electrically conductive substrate, a                    
          thickness of said insulating film being in the range of 0.5 Fm              
          - 3 Fm, and said thin film magnetic transducing element                     
          comprises a magnetic film and a coil film and its [sic, is]                 
          formed on said insulating film so that at least a part of said              
          magnetic film is in direct contact with said electrically                   
          conductive substrate through a hole formed in said insulating               
          film, wherein said insulating film is formed between said                   
          electrically conductive substage [sic, substrate] and said                  
                                        - 6 -
