Abstract: A fluid ejection system includes a fluid ejection die, a service station assembly, and a controller. The fluid ejection die includes at least one strain gauge sensor to sense strain. The service station assembly is to service the fluid ejection die. The controller is to receive the sensed strain from the at least one strain gauge sensor during servicing of the fluid ejection die and adjust or stop servicing of the fluid ejection die in response to the sensed strain exceeding a servicing threshold.

Abstract: A fluid ejection device including a plurality of primitives each having a same set of addresses and including a plurality of fluid chambers, each fluid chamber corresponding to a different address of the set of addresses and including a firing mechanism. Input logic receives a series of fire pulse groups, each fire pulse group corresponding to an address of the set of addresses and including warming data having an enable value or a disable value and a series of firing bits, each firing bit corresponding to a different primitive and having a firing value or a non-firing value. For each firing bit of each fire pulse group, when the warming data has the enable value, activation logic provides a warming pulse to the firing mechanism of the fluid chamber corresponding to the firing bit when the firing bit has the non-firing value.

Abstract: A die controller to control a fluidic die having a plurality of primitives each including a plurality of nozzles addressed by a same set of addresses. The die controller provides operational data including a series of actuation data groups to the fluidic die to actuate the nozzles to eject fluid to form an article, each actuation data group including a series of fire pulse groups, with each fire pulse group corresponding to a different address of the set of addresses and including a set of actuation data for each primitive and a set of start bits to initiate actuation of the nozzles based on the actuation data of the immediately preceding fire pulse group. The die controller to provide a blank fire pulse group immediately following a last fire pulse group of the series of fire pulse groups of each actuation data group when operating in an edge sharpness mode.

Abstract: A method of operating a printing device during a power loss event includes, with a power loss protection supply voltage generator coupled to a printhead driving circuit, maintaining a power loss protection supply voltage (VDD—plp) to the printhead driving circuit until a high voltage power supply (VPP) to the high voltage devices drops below a threshold voltage.

Abstract: A fluidic die includes a sense architecture having a global sense block to provide an analog reference signal and an array of distributed sense blocks. Each distributed sense block is to receive a same set of addresses via an address bus and each is to receive a corresponding sense enable signal having an enable value or a disable value. Each distributed sense block includes an array of sensors, each sensor corresponding to a different address of the set of addresses and a sample circuit to apply the analog reference signal to the sensor corresponding to the address on the address bus when the corresponding sense enable signal has the enable value, and provide to the global sense block an analog sense signal from the sensor resulting from application of the analog reference signal.

Abstract: A fluid ejection system includes a group of actuators and a controller. The controller can determine an operational mode of the fluid ejection system. Examples of operational modes include a service mode. In response to determining the fluid ejection system is in the service mode, the controller can modify a firing event sequence of each actuator in the group of actuators. The modification of the firing event sequence can be based in part on determining the fluid ejection system is operating in the service mode.

Abstract: A fluid ejection die includes a plurality of nozzles to eject fluid drops and a plurality of strain gauge sensors to sense strain. Each strain gauge sensor corresponds to a nozzle and passes the sensed strain to a controller to determine the health of the nozzle based on the sensed strain.
