LOGIC CIRCUITRY
A sensor circuit for a replaceable print apparatus component comprises an interface to transmit signals with respect to a print apparatus logic circuit, and further comprises, connected to the interface, at least two sensor cell arrays, each array including nominally the same cells, the cells of one array being nominally different than the cells of the other array, and at least one single cell sensor that is nominally different than the other cells.
LOGIC CIRCUITRY
In an example, a method comprises, by logic circuitry associated with a replaceable print apparatus component installed in a print apparatus, receiving a sensor data request and determining whether the request is for data indicative of a print material level or for data indicative of a pressurisation event. In the event that the request is a request for data indicative of the print material level, the method may comprise responding with a first data response in a first value range; and in the event that the request is a request for data indicative of a pressurisation event, the method may comprise responding with a second data response in a second value range.
LOGIC CIRCUITRY
In an example, a method includes, by logic circuitry associated with a replaceable print apparatus component installed in a print apparatus, responding to a sensor data request received from the print apparatus by returning a first response; receiving a calibration parameter from the print apparatus; and returning a second response which is different from the first response.
Logic circuitry
Disclosed herein are sensor circuits for a replaceable print material container, the sensor circuit to communicate with a printer logic circuit. An example sensor circuit includes a first sensor to detect at least one of a pneumatic stimulus or a pressurization applied by a printer, a second sensor, and an interface to communicate with at least one of a voltage source or a data source of the printer logic circuit. The example sensor circuit also includes logic circuitry, responsive to a class parameter, to: (a) output a first signal based on at least one of the pneumatic stimulus or the pressurization sensed by the first sensor when the class parameter is a first class parameter; and (b) output a second signal based on at least one of an output of the second sensor, different data, or a different algorithm when the class parameter is a second class parameter.

HIGH FREQUENCY RESPONSE PRESSURE SENSOR BASED ON DIRECT CURRENT GLOW DISCHARGE PLASMA PRINCIPLE
A high frequency response pressure sensor based on direct current glow discharge plasma principle is provided, including: discharging electrodes including a cathode and an anode and used for generating a plasma between the cathode and the anode under the effect of a high voltage direct current power supply; a support structure used for supporting and fixing the discharging electrodes and ensuring that a stable gap is provided between the cathode and the anode; and a shielding casing used for shielding the plasma from an external gas so that the plasma remains unaffected by a flow speed of the external gas and senses only a change in pressure of the external gas. The high frequency response pressure sensor is not affected by mass inertia and has the potential of breaking through MHz high frequency response.
