Abstract: In some examples, a system includes a device support to receive a fluid dispensing device, and a controller to identify, based on data controlling activation of fluidic actuators, a fluidic actuator that is to be activated in a first activation cycle of a group of activation cycles that correspond to activation intervals of respective fluidic actuators of a group of fluidic actuators of the fluid dispensing device, the identified fluidic actuator being part of the group of fluidic actuators. To perform a sense measurement for the identified fluidic actuator, the controller suppresses activation of the identified fluidic actuator in the first activation cycle, and causes activation of the identified fluidic actuator in a sense measurement cycle different from the first activation cycle, the sense measurement cycle being part of the group of activation cycles.

Abstract: In one example a fluid level sensing device is described. The device includes a sensing die having a number of fluid level sensors disposed thereon and a number of control devices, each control device corresponding to one of the number of fluid level sensors. A control device includes a comparing device to determine a state of a corresponding fluid level sensor. A state of the fluid level sensor is selected from the group consisting of a fluid state and a no-fluid state. Each control device also includes a non-volatile memory device corresponding to the comparing device to indicate whether the corresponding fluid level sensor is at the fluid state or the no-fluid state. A control device also includes a locking device to irreversibly set the non-volatile memory device to the no-fluid state independent of a write command from a controller.

Abstract: In one example, a fluid level sensor includes control logic, and an array of sensing locations to detect a level of fluid in a container. The array of sensing locations include a number of memory cells located at a number of sensing locations in the array of sensing locations, a word line coupled to the memory cells, a bit line coupled to the memory cells, and a pre-charge circuit coupled to the word line and the bit line. The control logic instructs a number FETs coupled to a bit line to disconnect from a number of the memory cells, and power up the memory cells to cause the memory cells to take a first state or a second state. The control logic outputs the state of the memory cells to a Pre-charge processing device. The state of the memory cells defines the level of the fluid in the container.

Abstract: In some examples, a fluid die includes a fluid nozzle, a first latch, a second latch, and a timing circuit comprising a counter and a comparator. The timing circuit is to trigger the first latch, at a first predetermined time instant from an edge of a firing pulse, to store a first test result obtained based on a voltage measured across the fluid nozzle, and trigger the second latch, at a second predetermined time instant from the edge of the firing pulse, to store a second test result obtained based on a voltage measured across the fluid nozzle.

Abstract: In some examples, a printhead die includes a nozzle to be fired by a fire pulse, and a sensor to measure, during a firing of the nozzle by the fire pulse, a measured signal comprising an impedance characteristic of a fluid sample of the nozzle, in response to an input signal applied to the fluid sample. A comparator is to compare the measured signal to a reference value, and a counter is to count over an evaluation interval in response to the comparing indicating that an evaluation criterion is satisfied, and the counter is to stop counting in response to the comparing indicating that the evaluation criterion is not satisfied, a count value of the counter providing an indicator of nozzle chamber operation corresponding to the measured signal.

Abstract: An inkjet printing system, fluid ejection system and method thereof are disclosed. The fluid ejection system includes a fluid ejection device and a determination module to determine a supply condition based on the count value output by the converter module. The fluid ejection device includes a fluid supply chamber to store fluid, an ejection chamber including a nozzle and a corresponding ejection member to selectively eject the fluid through the nozzle, a pressure sensor unit having a sensor plate to output a voltage value corresponding to a cross-sectional area of an amount of fluid in the ejection chamber. The fluid ejection system also includes a converter module to output a count value corresponding to the voltage value output by the pressure sensor unit.
