    Abstract: The present subject matter relates to evaluating nozzle condition of a plurality of nozzles. In one example, drive bubble detect (DBD) test results for a set of nozzles from among the plurality of nozzles are stored by a print head in a test result register, where the test result register is provided onto the print head. Further, status bits of a result-ready register provided in the print head are set to a predetermined value by the print head responsive to storing of the DBD test results in the test result register. Further, based on the setting, the DBD test results are obtained by a control unit, from the test result register, for evaluating the nozzle condition.

    Abstract: The present subject matter relates to evaluating print head nozzle condition of a plurality of nozzle columns. Each of the plurality of nozzle columns comprises a set of nozzles. A plurality of drive bubble detect modules are activated, by a timing circuit coupled to each of the plurality of nozzle columns upon occurrence of at least a first predetermined time instant and a second predetermined time instant. For each of the plurality of nozzle columns, test results for a nozzle of the nozzle column are registered by the corresponding drive bubble detect module. Test results obtained based on impedances measured across a nozzle associated with the nozzle column corresponding to a drive bubble detect module are registered by the drive bubble detect module at the first predetermined time instant and the second predetermined time instant. The print head nozzle condition of the nozzle is evaluated based on the test results.

    Abstract: Methods to program a floating gate memory array include, in response to a request to program a second bit of the floating gate memory array, at a first time, outputting a programming voltage to cause a first node voltage at a first source of a first transistor corresponding to a first bit, wherein the first node voltage is greater than a second node voltage at a second source of a second transistor corresponding to the second bit. The method further includes at a second time, increasing the programming voltage of the floating gate memory array to program the second bit of the floating gate memory array.

    Abstract: According to examples, an apparatus may include a substrate having a fluid recirculation channel and a membrane adjacent to the fluid recirculation channel, in which the membrane is portion of the substrate having a smaller thickness than other portions of the substrate. The apparatus may also include a component layer, in which a fluid ejection chamber may be formed in the component layer. The fluid ejection chamber may include a nozzle and fluid may be received into the fluid ejection chamber through an inlet port and recirculated to the fluid recirculation channel through an outlet port. The apparatus may further include active circuit elements formed on the membrane, in which the active circuit elements may control ejection of fluid from the fluid ejection chamber through the nozzle.

    Abstract: In some examples, a fluid dispensing device includes a plurality of fluidic actuators and a decoder to detect that a first fluidic actuator is to be activated, and detect that a sense measurement is to be performed. In response to detecting that the first fluidic actuator is to be activated and the sense measurement is to be performed, the decoder is to suppress activation of the first fluidic actuator at a first time, and activate the first fluidic actuator at a second time corresponding to a sense measurement interval to perform the sense measurement of the first fluidic actuator.

    Abstract: A fluidic die includes primitives arranged to form a number of primitive zones, each primitive zone including a memory to store adjustment data, and at least one signal adjuster to receive a fire signal, and to adjust the received fire signal based on the stored adjustment data to provide an adjusted fire signal to each primitive of the primitive zone. The fluidic die includes an address bus and a set of data lines, each data line corresponding to a different one of the primitives. Mode circuitry directs address data from the address bus to each primitive and print data from each data line to the corresponding primitive when a mode signal has a first value, and directs data representing adjustment data from one of the address bus and the set of data lines to at least one of the memories when the mode signal has a second value.
