Application 08/405,561
thereof and being circumferentially spaced apart therearound,
and said stator having a plurality of magnetic stator poles
circumferentially spaced apart from each other around said
rotor for sequentially cooperating with respective ones of
said rotor poles for rotating said rotor to rotate said disk;
a selectively movable access head for selectively
addressing said data on said disk
each of said stator poles comprising a magnetic core
integrally wound with an electrically conducting coil for
generating a magnetic flux through said core upon energizing
thereof; and
said stator pole cores and coils being integrated on a
substrate and comprising deposited magnetic material and
deposited conducting material; respectively, and a dielectric
therebetween.
