A semiconductor circuit integrated with CMOS circuits for receiving a TTL input voltage and generating a large negative and positive voltage swing with respect to p-type or n-type substrate is disclosed. This invention is based on elimination of the electro-static discharge (ESD) protection circuit which is a requirement for any integrated circuit. Eliminating the ESD protection circuit also eliminates the clamping feature of the ESD protection circuit and therefore the circuit can be driven to negative voltages for PMOS circuits and to positive voltages for NMOS circuits. This provides the possibility of connecting the drain of a a P-channel type metal oxide silicon field effect (PMOS) transistor, which is fabricated on a p-type substrate within an n-well, to a voltage below the the substrate voltage. Also, in a n-channel type metal oxide silicon field effect (NMOS) transistor which is fabricated on a n-type substrate within a P-well, the drain can be connected to voltages higher than the substrate voltage. Utilizing this feature of a MOS transistor provides a way to design an integrated circuit which can handle negative voltage swings as well as positive voltage swings.

An acoustic inkjet printhead utilizes a pulse width modulation to control droplet size or ejection velocity. An individual control pulse controls the duration and the time a RF signal is applied to each transducer. To modify the RF signal of each transducer, the pulse width of each control signal can be modified according to a predetermined correction data. The rising edge of the control data is delayed according to the correction data while the falling edge is kept the same.

A fluid ejector including a silicon wafer having a first side and a second side. A multi-layer monolithic structure is formed on the first side of the silicon wafer. The multi-layer monolithic structure includes a first structure layer formed on the first side of the silicon wafer, and the first structure layer has an aperture. A second structure layer has a horizontal portion and closed, filled trenches or vertical sidewalls. The first structure layer, horizontal portion and the closed, filled trenches or vertical sidewalls of the second structure layer define a fluid cavity. An actuator is associated with the horizontal portion of the second structure layer, and an etched portion of the silicon wafer defines an open area which exposes the aperture in the first structure layer.

A liquid drop ejector comprising a jet stack, thin film or thick film heaters formed on the surface of the jet stack, and at least one thin film or thick film temperature sensor operative to provide feedback temperature control for the thin film or thick film heater elements is provided. In one form, the liquid drop ejector also has the thin film or thick film heater elements grouped in segments that are operative to be individually controlled. In addition, in another form, the signal lines provided to the liquid drop ejector are patterned to allow for more uniform resistance over the span of the liquid drop ejector.

A method is provided that includes providing a mold on a temporary substrate, e.g., a sapphire substrate. Next, a material such as PZT paste is deposited into the mold. Then, the mold is removed to obtain elements formed by the mold. The formed elements will then be sintered. After sintering, electrode deposition is optionally performed. The sintered elements are then bonded to a final target substrate and released from the temporary substrate through laser liftoff. Further, electrodes may also be optionally deposited at this point.

An electronic circuit is utilized to correct scan non-linearity of a raster output scanner. The circuit modulates a clock frequency to match a scan linearity error profile. Because it is a separate circuit, the exiting closed-loop clock generator does not need to be modified. The correction circuit synchronizes itself with the clock signal using a counter/subtractor phase detector, which ensures that the phase and frequency of the internal clock matches the phase and frequency of the master.

An electronic driver circuitry for an RF switch diode used in Acoustic Ink Jet Printing (AIP) systems is disclosed The electronic driver circuitry consists of a PMOS transistor and a poly resistor used to control the on/off states of the RF switch diode wherein the drive current for the RF switch diode is the same as the current in the PMOS transistor. To compensate for undesirable variations in the RF switch diode, the driver circuitry is designed such that the current in the PMOS transistor is adjusted in an opposite direction to cancel the unwanted variations.
