Abstract

See full text

A method according to one embodiment includes biasing, by a biasing circuit, an electrically conductive structure to a predefined and/or selected voltage. A resistive link is coupled to both the biasing circuit and the electrically conductive structure, the electrically conductive structure being positioned proximate to a media hearing surface. A method according to another embodiment includes biasing, by a biasing circuit, a conductive bus to a predefined and/or selected voltage, the conductive bus being coupled to at least one of a plurality of transducers and a plurality of electrically conductive structures. Resistive links are electrically coupled between the conductive bus and the electrically conductive structures and/or the transducers.
