摘要:
An integrated circuit chip with a low voltage differential signaling receiver (LVDS). The receiver has first and second input lines, and an output line. The first input line is connected to a first input node on the chip, and the second input line connected via a termination resistor on the chip to a second input node on the chip. The second input line is connected to a third input node on the chip. The chip may be installed on a substrate with one or more identical chips, with the first nodes of each chip connected to a first conductor on the substrate, and a second conductor on the substrate connected to the third node of each chip. A second node on one of the chips is connected to the first conductor to involve the resistor.

Printhead and printer arrangements that provide digital delay between firing signals for a common firing interval. The delay achieves a controlled, staggered generation of firing signals that reduces EMI and instantaneous power supply draw and reduces or eliminates certain shielding requirements. Various arrangements are provided, including the use of edge triggered digital delay elements, staggered firing signal generation from firing signal control logic and the use of analog delay elements.

A voltage stabilization circuit includes a band gap reference circuit to generate a stable output voltage that is temperature-independent, and a folded cascode feedback circuit to generate a feedback potential that is applied to stabilize the band gap reference circuit. The folded cascode feedback circuit is implemented with current mirror circuits.

A printer has a print head with multiple nozzles and firing elements for corresponding nozzles. The print head receives one or more power supply inputs to operate the firing elements. The print head has power supply fault protection circuitry to guard against harmful and destructive effects on firing resistors resulting from power supply fluctuations. The power supply fault protection circuitry is integrated into a pen-based chip that also forms the firing elements and optionally the firing logic.
