    Abstract: In an example implementation, a microfluidic device includes a first layer with a first microfluidic channel and a second layer with a second microfluidic channel. The first and second channels are adjacent to one another at a channel intersection, and a conductive membrane valve extends across and covers the channel intersection to separate the first and second channels. The microfluidic device includes a conductive trace to open the membrane valve and join the first and second channels by supplying an electric current to heat and melt a thinned region of the membrane valve.

    Abstract: A thermal contact device may include a thermal contact die embedded in a moldable material. The thermal contact die may include a number of resistors integrated into the thermal contact die, and a number of heater drivers integrated into the thermal contact die and electronically coupled to the resistors. The moldable material is coplanar with a thermal contact side of the thermal contact device. Further, the moldable material includes at least one gradient edge along a medium feed path.

    Abstract: In one example, a fluid property sensor includes a proximal elongated circuit (EC), a distal EC, and an external interface. The proximal EC has multiple point sensors distributed along its length. The distal EC is extended in the direction of the length from a distal end of the proximal EC and is electrically coupled from the distal end of the proximal EC to a proximal end of the distal EC. The proximal and distal ECs share a common interface bus. The external interface is electrically coupled to a proximal end of the proximal EC. The proximal EC, the distal EC, and the external interface are packaged together to form the fluid property sensor.

    Abstract: A fluid ejection device includes a fluid ejection die to eject drops of fluid and a body to support the fluid ejection die, with the fluid ejection die including a fluid ejection chamber, a drop ejecting element within the fluid ejection chamber, and a fluid feed hole communicated with the fluid ejection chamber, and with the body including a fluid feed slot communicated with the fluid feed hole of the fluid ejection die. The fluid ejection device includes a micro-recirculation system to recirculate fluid within the fluid ejection die through the fluid ejection chamber, and a macro-recirculation system to recirculate fluid within the body through the fluid feed slot across the fluid feed hole of the fluid ejection die.
