An externally wireless laminated suspension for a hard disk drive are
disclosed. In one embodiment, the externally wireless laminated
suspension has an insulating layer to electrically isolate a first and
second electrical trace from a conductive support layer. The second
electrical trace crosses over the first electrical trace. The first
electrical trace may be made of a first part on one side of the second
electrical trace and a second part on the opposite side of the electrical
trace. A conductive island area may be patterned into the support layer.
The conductive island area may electrically couple the first part of the
first electrical trace to the second part. The number of crossover points
that the first electrical trace has may equal the number of crossover
points that the second electrical trace has.
