Abstract: An interface device includes a housing defining a first conduit between an inlet and an outlet, wherein at least one of the inlet and the outlet is connectable to at least one port of a digital microfluidic device. A first pump is supported by the housing and coupled relative to the first conduit to move at least one sample liquid droplet through the conduit, on a one-way basis, from the inlet to the outlet.

Abstract: An example overfill-tolerant microfluidic structure can include an inlet microfluidic channel. A sample chamber can be connected to the inlet microfluidic channel to receive liquid from the inlet microfluidic channel. A gas-permeable liquid barrier can be connected to the sample chamber and positioned to allow gas to flow out of the sample chamber. An overflow chamber can be connected to the inlet microfluidic channel. A capillary break can be positioned between the inlet microfluidic channel and the overflow chamber. The capillary break can include a narrowed opening with a smaller width than a width of the inlet microfluidic channel. In some examples, the gas-permeable liquid barrier can allow gas to flow out of the sample chamber at a pressure lower than the break pressure, and prevent liquid from flowing out of the sample chamber at the break pressure.

Abstract: In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, a method is described. According to the method, sacrificial structures that define fluid structures to be formed on a fluid analysis device and interconnect structures that define electrical interconnects to be formed on the fluid analysis device are formed on a surface. The structures are embedded in a plastic compound and multiple layers of plastic compound embedded with structures are stacked. The fluid structures are formed by removing the sacrificial structures.

Abstract: A fluid ejection device may include fluid actuators, ejection chambers adjacent the fluid actuators, nozzles extending from the ejection chambers, and fluid feed holes to supply fluid from a fluid supply passage to the ejection chambers. The fluid feed holes have ports connected to the ejection chambers. The ports are sized to pass bubbles formed by the fluid actuators out of the ejection chambers.
