Electrostatic Discharge Protection Of Electrically-Inactive Components In A Thermal Ink Jet Printing System

View page
US Patent:
6361150, Mar 26, 2002
Filed:
Aug 30, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/385298
Inventors:
Donald W. Schulte - Corvallis OR
Matthew Giere - San Diego CA
Tyler Sims - San Diego CA
Noah C. Lassar - San Diego CA
Mary Kent - Corvallis OR
Assignee:
Hewlett-Packard Company - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
B41J 205
US Classification:
347 56, 347 64
Abstract:
This present invention is embodied in a system and a method for protecting an electrically-inactive component of a microsystem from an ESD event. The invention includes embodiments that protect the microsystem from ESD events that directly strike an electrically-inactive component and that are external to the electrically-inactive component. The present invention includes an ESD dissipation device having a connected chain of electrically-inactive components that are electrically floating. Alternatively, the electrically-inactive components can be held at the same potential as an electrical component. Further, a sacrificial ESD breakdown device is included that provides a preferential ESD breakdown site away from the protected component. Also, capacitively coupled thin-film layers can provide shielding to electrically-inactive components.

Segmented Resistor Inkjet Drop Generator With Current Crowding Reduction

View page
US Patent:
6367147, Apr 9, 2002
Filed:
Mar 5, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/802534
Inventors:
Matthew Giere - San Diego CA
Noah C. Lassar - San Diego CA
Satya Prakash - Poway CA
Assignee:
Hewlett-Packard Company - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
H05K 320
US Classification:
29611, 29831
Abstract:
In order to overcome inefficient power dissipation in parasitic resistances and to provide economies in the power supply, a higher resistance value heater resistor is employed in a thermal inkjet printhead. Higher current densities in a high resistance segmented heater resistor are reduced by employing a shorting bar divided by a current balancing resistor.

View page
US Patent:
6464316, Oct 15, 2002
Filed:
Apr 30, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/846484
Inventors:
Ronald A. Askeland - San Diego CA
Matthew D Giere - San Diego CA
Clayton L. Holstun - San Marcos CA
Assignee:
Hewlett-Packard Company - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
B41J 2938
US Classification:
347 9, 347 14
Abstract:
A method for incremental printing with an inkjet swath printer by ejecting drops of an ink from a printhead while scanning the printhead over a print medium, including determining a first edge and a second edge of each pixel in each row with respect to a first scanning direction. Moving the printhead in the first scanning direction while ejecting the drops of ink on the first edge of the pixels at a first firing frequency and on the second edge of the pixels at a second firing frequency and moving the printhead in a second direction opposite to the first scanning direction while ejecting the drops of ink on the second edge of the pixels at the first firing frequency and on the first edge of the pixels at the second firing frequency. Also a printing system for ejecting ink drops onto a medium, which includes a mechanism for scanning a carriage through a print zone over the medium, a printhead mounted on the carriage, the printhead having ink firing elements for ejecting an ink, and a controller for determining a first edge an d a second edge of each pixel in each row with respect to a first scanning direction; the controller causing the carriage to scan the printhead in a first scanning direction while ejecting the drops of ink on the first edge of the pixels at a first firing frequency and on the second edge of the pixels at a second firing frequency; and the controller causing the carriage to scan the printhead in a second scanning direction opposite to the first scanning direction while ejecting the drops of ink on the second edge of the pixels at the first firing frequency and on the first edge of the pixels at the second firing frequency.

US Patent:
6565178, May 20, 2003
Filed:
Oct 29, 2001
Appl. No.:
10/002751
Inventors:
Matthew D Giere - San Diego CA
Satya Prakash - Poway CA
Michael J. Barbour - Corvallis OR
Assignee:
Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. - Houston TX
International Classification:
B41J 2938
US Classification:
347 17
Abstract:
An apparatus includes a substrate and a resistive element attached to a region of the substrate and formed of a first material having a first temperature coefficient of resistivity. In addition, the apparatus includes a pair of traces coupled to the resistive element, attached to the substrate, and formed of a second material having a second temperature coefficient of resistivity with the first material selected so that the first temperature coefficient of resistivity exceeds the second temperature coefficient of resistivity. An apparatus includes a substrate and a resistive element disposed onto a first region of the substrate and formed of a first material having a first temperature coefficient of resistivity. In addition, the apparatus includes a pair of traces coupled to the resistive element and each formed of a first plurality of sections of a second material having a second temperature coefficient of resistivity and a second plurality of sections of a third material having a third temperature coefficient of resistivity.
