摘要: A wide semiconductor transducer device comprises a linear array of semiconductor chips. Each of the semiconductor chips has a plurality of transducer elements arranged on it along a front edge at a constant spacing, the constant spacing being maintained across the semiconductor chip boundaries. Each of the semiconductor chips also includes associated transducer circuits which are each connected one of the plurality of transducer elements formed on the semiconductor chip. While the requirement that the transducer elements maintain the constant spacing requires them to be located within a damage zone created during the dicing and/or thermally induced compression of the semiconductor chip, the associated transducer circuits can be located within an interior portion of the semiconductor chip. The interior portion of the semiconductor chip is located a sufficient distance from the edges of the semiconductor chip such that it does not encroach on the damage zone.

摘要: At least one through opening of predetermined location and dimensions is fabricated in a (100) silicon wafer by orientation dependent etching method after completion of integrated circuits on the wafer, the opening extending through the wafer between a circuit surface of the wafer and an opposite parallel base surface of the wafer and having a predetermined location relative to the integrated circuit on the circuit surface of the wafer. The method includes the steps of fabricating the integrated circuit on the circuit surface of the wafer; applying an etch resistant layer of plasma solicon nitride on the circuit and base surfaces of the wafer; patterning the etch resistant plasma silicon nitride layer on the circuit surface to define an upper etch opening having a location and dimensions which define the predetermined location and dimensions of the through opening; and patterning the plasma silicon nitride layer on the base surface to produce a lower etch opening aligned with the upper etch opening within a predetermined tolerance. The wafer is then anisotropically etched to produce a first recess corresponding to the upper etch opening in the circuit surface and a second recess corresponding to the lower etch opening in the base surface, each of the first and second recesses being bounded by (111) plane side walls. The anisotropic etching of the second recess intersects the first recess to form the through opening bounded by (111) plane side walls and has its predetermined dimensions and location defined by the patterning of the upper etch opening.

摘要: A system controls an ink jet printing apparatus for propelling ink jet droplets on demand from a printhead having a plurality of drop ejectors. In the printhead, each ejector includes a heating element actuable in response to electrical input signals, each input signal having an amplitude and a time duration, selectably applied to the heating element to produce a temporary vapor bubble and cause a quantity of ink to be emitted for the creation of a mark on a copy sheet. The temperature of ink in the printhead is sensed, and a combination of power level and time duration of the electrical input signal for the heating element to result in a desired size of the mark of the copy sheet is selected, by entering the sensed temperature of the ink into a predetermined function relating the energy of the electrical input signal to the corresponding resulting size of the mark on the copy sheet.

摘要: The new heater element design has a pit layer which protects the overglaze passivation layer, PSG step region, portions of the Ta layer and dielectric isolation layer and junctions or regions susceptible to the cavitational pressures. Further, the inner walls of the pit layer define the effective heater area and the dopant lines define the actual heater area. In alternative embodiments, the dopant lines define the actual and effective heater areas, and an inner wall and a dopant line define the actual and effective heater areas. Further, when the new heater element designs are incorporated into printheads having full pit channel geometry and open pit channel geometry, the operating lifetime of the printhead is extended because the added protection of the pit layer prevents: 1) passivation damage and cavitational damages of the heater elements; and 2) degradation of heater robustness, hot spot formations and heater failures well into the 109 pulse range. The printhead incorporating the new heater element design can be incorporated into drop-on-demand printing systems of a carriage type or a full width type.

摘要: A thermal ink jet printhead includes a switched power supply for the intermediate voltage predriver sections. The power supply is switched by a MOSFET connected between an intermediate point of a voltage divider and ground. By switching the power supply, the predriver sections are turned off, unnecessary power consumption and overheating the printhead are avoided.

摘要: The systems and methods of this invention allows for an electrical contact structure of the drop ejecting transducer in an inkjet printhead to be designed in such a way that the relatively thick electrical contact lines are not in the ink drop ejection path between the drop ejector transducer and the corresponding nozzle. Such a design thereby minimizes any visible defects due to misdirected satellite drops.

摘要: A "roofshooter" pagewidth printhead for use in a thermal ink jet printing device is fabricated by forming a plurality of subunits, each being produced by bonding a heater substrate having an architecture including an array of heater elements and an etched ink feed slot to a secondary substrate having a series of spaced feed hole openings to form a combined substrate in which said series of spaced feed hole openings communicates with said ink feed slot, and dicing said combined substrates through said ink feed slot to form a subunit. An array of butted subunits having a length equal to one pagewidth is formed by butting one of said subunits against an adjacent subunit. The array of butted subunits is bonded to a pagewidth support substrate. The secondary substrate provides an integral support structure for maintaining the alignment of the heater plate which, if diced through the feed hole without the secondary substrate, would separate into individual pieces, thereby complicating the alignment and assembly process.
