  • Microelectromechanical machined array valve
    Patent number: 5927325
    Abstract: A valve to allow digitally addressable flow controllers is provided. An array of micromachined valves having a range of flow capacities and individually addressable while functioning in an On/Off mode allows flow controllers and similar devices high resolution, linearity and reproducibility.
