    Abstract: A fluid-ejection printhead includes channel, interposer, and fluidejection layers. The channel layer has first and second supply channels and first and second return channels. The interposer layer defines first and second inlet ports respectively fluidically connected to the first and second supply channels, and first and second outlet ports respectively fluidically connected to the first and second return channels. The fluid-ejection layer includes first and second fluid-ejection element groups fluidically connected to the first supply and return channels and the second supply and return channels, respectively. The first fluid-ejection element group, ports, and channels are asymmetrically configured relative to the second fluid-ejection element group, ports, and channels.

    Abstract: In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, a fluidic die is described. The fluidic die includes an array of fluid actuators grouped into primitives. Each actuator is disposed in a fluid chamber. The fluidic die also includes an array of fluid sensors. Each fluid sensor is disposed within a fluid chamber and determines a characteristic within the fluid chamber. A data parser of the fluidic die extracts from an incoming signal, firing instructions and measurement instructions for the fluidic die. The measurement instructions indicate at least one of a peak measurement during a nucleation event and a reference measurement during a non-nucleation event. A firing controller generates firing signals based on the firing instructions and a measurement controller activates, during a measurement interval of a printing cycle for the primitive, a measurement for a selected actuator based on the measurement instructions.

    Abstract: According to examples, an apparatus may include a plurality of fluidic actuators and a fluidic actuator control circuit to control operation of the plurality of fluidic actuators. The fluidic actuator control circuit may have on-die logic. In some examples, a controller may generate a signal to cause the fluidic actuator control circuit to control the plurality of fluidic actuators. The controller may monitor a condition of a selected fluidic chamber. Based on the signal, the on-die logic may suppress an operation of a selected fluidic actuator of the plurality of fluidic actuators corresponding to the selected fluidic chamber for a predetermined time period.

    Abstract: The fluid ejection device includes a plurality of nozzles and a plurality of ejection chambers that includes a respective ejection chamber fluidically coupled to a respective nozzle. A plurality of inlet passages are fluidically coupled to the ejection chambers and input fluid to the ejection chambers at a first pressure. A plurality of outlet passages are fluidically coupled to the ejection chambers and output fluid from the ejection chambers at a second pressure that is less than the first pressure. Fluid circulates through the ejection chambers based on the pressure difference between the first and second pressure. The fluid ejection device also includes at least one micropump fluidically coupled to at least one ejection chamber to pump fluid through the at least one ejection chamber.
