SENSOR CIRCUITRY

Examples of a print liquid supply unit are described herein. In some examples, the print liquid supply unit includes a regulator assembly. In some examples, the regulator assembly includes an at least partially expandable or contractible pressure chamber. In some examples, the print liquid supply unit includes a port. In some examples, the print liquid supply unit includes sensor circuitry positioned between the regulator assembly and the port in a print liquid reservoir.

LOGIC CIRCUITRY PACKAGE

A logic circuitry package for a replaceable print apparatus component includes an I2C interface to communicate with a print apparatus logic circuit and at least one logic circuit. The at least one logic circuit is configured to respond to communications over the I2C interface that are directed to an initial or reconfigured I2C address. The at least one logic circuit is configured to receive, via the I2C interface, a write command to a first memory address of the logic circuit to initiate a first function of the logic circuit. The at least one logic circuit is configured to generate first data in response to the first function. The at least one logic circuit is configured to receive, via the I2C interface, a first read command to a second memory address of the logic circuit. The at least one logic circuit is configured to transmit, via the I2C interface, the first data in response to the first read command to the second memory address.

LOGIC CIRCUITRY PACKAGE

A logic circuitry package for a replaceable print apparatus component includes an interface to communicate with a print apparatus logic circuit and at least one logic circuit including a memory storing a reference parameter. The at least one logic circuit is configured to receive, via the interface, a first request sent to a first address to read the reference parameter; and transmit, via the interface, the reference parameter in response to the first request. The at least one logic circuit is configured to receive, via the interface, a second request sent to a second address to implement a task; and implement the task to output a digital value via the interface in response to the second request. The reference parameter corresponds to the digital value.

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.

LOGIC CIRCUITRY PACKAGE

A logic circuitry package for a replaceable print apparatus component includes an interface to communicate with a print apparatus logic circuit, and at least one logic circuit to transmit, via the interface, a sensor ID parameter and a limit parameter, the sensor ID parameter indicating a first sensor ID. The logic circuit is to receive, via the interface, a first request corresponding to the first sensor ID with the component connected to the apparatus and the apparatus not pneumatically actuating the component. The logic circuit is to transmit, via the interface, a first digital value in response to the first request. The logic circuit is to receive, via the interface, a second request corresponding to the first sensor ID with the component connected to the apparatus and the apparatus pneumatically actuating the component. The logic circuit is to transmit, via the interface, a second digital value in response to the second request. A difference between the first digital value and the second digital value is greater than the limit parameter.
