Abstract:
An electrical circuit for measuring the shape of a voltage waveform in a print head of a printer includes an integrated circuit for generating one or more voltage amplitude waveforms. The electrical circuit includes an inkjet drop forming unit including a plurality of inkjet chambers, wherein each of the plurality of inkjet chambers includes a piezoelectric actuator and an ink nozzle, and a connecting circuit between the integrated circuit and the inkjet drop forming unit suitable for applying one of the one or more voltage amplitude waveforms generated by the integrated circuit to the piezoelectric actuator in one of the plurality of inkjet chambers. In order to measure the shape of the one or more generated voltage amplitude waveforms via capacitive crosstalk, the electrical circuit also includes a conductor in physical proximity to the connecting circuit.
