Also, in the steps of forming the first terminal region-insulating layer and the first circumferential region-insulating layer, the first base pedestal layer can be simultaneously formed.
Thus, the pedestal can be efficiently formed without separately adding a step, while the connecting terminal can be surely brought closer to the terminal of the slider.
