Head suspension assembly and disk apparatus
A head suspension assembly includes a support plate, an interconnection member including a metal plate on the support plate, a first insulating layer on the metal plate, a conductive layer on the first insulating layer and forming a pair of connection pads, and a second insulating layer on the conductive layer, a head mounted in the interconnection member, and a piezoelectric element electrically connected to the connection pads and configured to displace the head when a predetermined voltage is applied across the connection pads. At least one opening is formed in each of the connection pads. The piezoelectric element is electrically connected to each of the connection pads by a conductive adhesive that is between the piezoelectric element and each of the connection pads and filled in the opening.
