A heat assisted magnetic recording head is provided, which can prevent an effect of a heat in a laser diode when a magnetic recording region is heated by a heating laser beam and which can reduce its size and weight. In the heat assisted magnetic recording head, a recording magnetic pole, a magnetic recording element, a magnetic read element, an optical waveguide, and an irradiating optical waveguide are attached to a floating slider provided below a suspension. The laser diode is arranged on an opposite side of the suspension to the floating slider. The heating laser beam emitted from the laser diode is directed to the irradiating optical waveguide through the optical waveguide, so that a magnetic recording medium is irradiated with the heating laser beam exiting from the irradiating optical waveguide.

A light source (60) is provided in the rear of display means (30), which has a light transmission type display and is made up of pixels (31) for left and right eyes and a first image separation mechanism (32) for the left and right eyes, with a lens unit (41) having a collecting power in a vertical direction and a second image separation mechanism (52) therebetween. The transmission light from the light source (60) spreads in the vertical direction as shown in the drawing. Such spread of the light occurs over the whole of a display surface. It is therefore possible to view the image on the display surface, when the viewer's head is located at any of positions 1 to 4. Accordingly, it becomes possible to make a degree of freedom in vertical (up-and-down) positional movement of the viewer's head.

This invention is generally concerned with digital-to-analogue converters and more particularly relates to techniques for reducing signal dependent loading of reference voltage sources used by these converters.

A differential switched capacitor digital-to-analogue (DAC) circuit (500) comprises first and second differential signal circuit portions (500a,b) for providing respective positive and negative signal outputs with respect to a reference level, and has first and second reference voltage inputs (112,114) for receiving respective positive and negative references. Each of said first and second circuit portions comprises an amplifier (102a,b) with a feedback capacitor (104a,b), a second capacitor (106a,b), and a switch (108a,b, 110a,b) to switchably couple said second capacitor to a selected one of said reference voltage inputs to charge the second capacitor and to said feedback capacitor to share charge with the feedback capacitor. The switch of said first circuit portion is further configured to connect said second capacitor (106a) of said first circuit portion to share charge with said feedback capacitor (104b) of said second circuit portion; and the switch of said second circuit portion is further configured to connect said second capacitor (106b) of said second circuit portion to share charge with said feedback capacitor (104a) of said first circuit portion. This enables the second capacitors to in effect be alternately pre-charged to positive and negative signal-dependent nodes so that, on average, signal dependent loading of the references is approximately constant.
