1. An apparatus, comprising:
- a first conductive trace of a slider having at least one sub-trace;
a second conductive trace of the slider having at least one sub-trace,wherein at least one sub-trace of the first conductive trace is interleaved with at least one sub-trace of the second conductive trace, each sub-trace of the first and second conductive traces having a variable width from a first end to a second end of the slider.

Abstract
A slider has a first conductive trace having at least one sub-trace and a second conductive trace having at least one sub-trace. The at least one sub-trace of the first conductive trace is interleaved with at least one sub-trace of the second conductive trace. Each sub-trace of the first and second conductive traces has a variable width from a first end to a second end of the slider.
