  • Publication number: 20230258678
    Abstract: In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, a system is described. The system includes a fluidic die to advance across an ejection path relative to a substrate. The fluidic die includes a channel to contain a portion of a sample fluid, a sensor to detect passage of a particle within the sample fluid into the channel, and an ejection device. The ejection device is to eject the particle. The system also includes a controller. The controller identifies discrete locations along the ejection path as waste sites as the fluidic die advances along the ejection path. This is done by 1) classifying the particle as a target particle or a non-target particle, 2) upon identification of a target particle, ejecting the target particle to a target site of the substrate, and 3) upon identification of a non-target particle, ejecting the non-target particle to a waste site.

  • Patent number: 11407229
    Abstract: A logic circuitry package for a replaceable print apparatus component includes an interface to communicate with a print apparatus logic circuit, and a logic circuit having a communication address to communicate with the print apparatus logic circuit. The logic circuit is configured to detect, via the interface, communications that include an other communication address. The logic circuit is configured to respond, via the interface, to a command series directed to the logic circuit that include the communication address of the logic circuit, based on the detected communications.

  • Patent number: 11351791
    Abstract: A logic circuitry package includes an interface to communicate with a print apparatus logic circuit and at least one logic circuit. The logic circuit is configured to receive, via the interface, a plurality of first requests in a heater disabled mode, each first request corresponding to a different sensor ID of a plurality of sensor IDs; transmit, via the interface, a first digital value in response to each first request; receive, via the interface, a plurality of second requests in a heater enabled mode, each second request corresponding to a different sensor ID of the plurality of sensor IDs; and transmit, via the interface, a second digital value in response to each second request. Delta values corresponding to a difference between the first digital value and the second digital value for each different sensor ID of the plurality of sensor IDs are indicative of a print material level.

  • Publication number: 20220001673
    Abstract: A replaceable print apparatus component includes a print material reservoir, a print material within the reservoir having a first print material level, and a logic circuitry package including an interface and a logic circuit. The logic circuit may receive, via the interface, a first calibration parameter and receive, via the interface, a first request corresponding to a first sensor ID associated with a second print material level above the first print material level. The logic circuit may transmit, via the interface, a first digital value in response to the first request and receive, via the interface, a second calibration parameter less than the first calibration parameter. The logic circuit may receive, via the interface, a second request corresponding to the first sensor ID, and transmit, via the interface, a second digital value in response to the second request. The second digital value is less than the first digital value.

  • Patent number: 10160203
    Abstract: A printhead assembly includes ink ejection devices having nozzles and arranged into primitive groups, and processing electronics in communication with the ink ejection devices. The processing electronics including logic to receive data packets for controlling the ink ejection devices. Each data packet includes primitive firing data and fire signal selection data. The processing electronics also include logic to select, for each data packet, a fire signal for application to the primitive groups from among selectable fire signals switchable among the primitive groups based on the fire signal selection data in each respective packet. The processing electronics also include logic to generate the selected fire signals, and to apply the selected fire signals to the ink ejection devices based on the primitive firing data for each data packet.
