Liquid Discharge Apparatus - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240109298 titled 'Liquid Discharge Apparatus
Simplified Explanation
The liquid discharge apparatus described in the patent application includes a first substrate and a second substrate positioned facing each other along a specific direction. The first drive circuit on the first substrate overlaps with part of the second drive circuit on the same substrate, while the first integrated circuit in the first drive circuit does not overlap with the second integrated circuit in the second drive circuit. Additionally, the first drive circuit overlaps with part of a third drive circuit on the second substrate, and the first integrated circuit in the first drive circuit does not overlap with the third integrated circuit in the third drive circuit.
