Abstract: In one embodiment, a fluid ejection device includes a substrate with a fluid slot and a membrane adhered to the substrate that spans the fluid slot. A resistor is disposed on top of the membrane over the fluid slot, and a fluid feed hole next to the resistor extends through the membrane to the slot. A shelf extends from the edge of the resistor to the edge of the feed hole, and a passivation layer covers the resistor and part the shelf. An etch-resistant layer is formed partly on the shelf and in between the fluid feed hole and the resistor.

Abstract: A digital microfluidic assembly includes an electrode control element, which includes an array of individually controllable electrodes supported on a first side of a substrate, a chamber sealed relative to an opposite second side of the substrate and a plurality of apertures. The apertures extend through, and between the respective first and second sides of, the substrate and in communication with the chamber. A support is to align a consumable microfluidic receptacle with the array of electrodes to receive charges on an anisotropic conductivity portion of the receptacle to induce electrowetting movement of a liquid droplet within the microfluidic receptacle. Upon application of negative pressure through the chamber and the apertures, the array of electrodes becomes releasably secured against the microfluidic receptacle.

Abstract: An example device includes a substrate and a cover separated from the substrate by a gap that includes a narrowed portion. The gap constrains a thickness of a fluid droplet situated between the substrate and the cover. The device further includes an array of electrodes at the substrate. The array of electrodes moves the fluid droplet within the gap in response to a charge applied to an electrode of the array of electrodes. The device further includes a thermal element positioned with respect to the substrate to change a temperature of the fluid droplet. The thermal element is positioned at the narrowed portion of the gap to reduce the thickness of the fluid droplet while undergoing the change in temperature.

Abstract: In an example implementation according to aspects of the present disclosure, a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprises a set of instructions that when executed by a controller are to transmit first control signals from to cause a first droplet of fluid to be pulled onto a microfluidic electrode of a digital microfluidic (DMF) array from a first reservoir; transmit second control signals to cause a second droplet of fluid to be pulled onto the microfluidic electrode of the DMF array from a second reservoir, wherein the first droplet of fluid and the second droplet of fluid are to be mixed on the microfluidic electrode responsive to mixing control signals to be transmitted by the controller and responsively yield a mixed fluid droplet; and transmit third control signals to cause the mixed fluid droplet to propagate to a feedhole.

Abstract: In some examples, a fluid dispensing device includes an inner chamber to contain a fluid. The fluid dispensing device further includes an orifice layer comprising a bubbler orifice to draw air through a bubbler chamber to the inner chamber responsive to a pressure satisfying a criterion, the bubbler chamber being adjacent the bubbler orifice. A circulation path circulates fluid drawn through a feed hole through the bubbler chamber.

Abstract: A die for a printhead is described herein. The die includes a number of fluid feed holes disposed in a line parallel to a longitudinal axis of the die, wherein the fluid feed holes are formed through a substrate of the die. A number of fluidic actuators are proximate to the fluid feed holes, to eject fluid received from the fluid feed holes A number of field-effect transistors are parallel to the fluid feed holes, where each of the fluidic actuators is powered by an associated field effect transistor. Logic circuitry to actuate the plurality of field-effect transistors is disposed on the die on an opposite side of the fluid feed holes from the field-effect transistors, wherein traces, disposed between the fluid feed holes, electrically couple the logic circuitry to the field-effect transistors. The die has a repeating structure comprising one fluid feed hole, two fluidic actuators, and two field-effect transistors placed at an interval of two times a dot pitch in a line along the die.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a fluid ejection device may include coupling a plurality of fluid ejection dies to an epoxy mold compound (EMC), partially curing the EMC, applying a force to the fluid ejection dies and EMC for a period of time, heating the fluid ejection dies and EMC for the period of time, and releasing the force when the EMC is cured. The completion of the curing causes the plurality of fluid ejection dies to be angled with respect to one another, the angle of the plurality of fluid ejection dies creating a curve in the fluid ejection device.
