          Appeal No. 96-2576                                                          
          Application 08/148,271                                                      


          This is a decision on the appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 134                      
          from the examiner's rejection of claims 1-9, which constitute all           
          the claims in the application.                                              
          The disclosed invention pertains to a battery mounted                       
          integrated circuit device.  Specifically, the invention relates             
          to a thin film laminated battery mounted on a semiconductor chip.           
          Power receiving circuits within the semiconductor chip receive              
          battery power through switches located within the semiconductor             
          chip.                                                                       
          Representative claims 1 and 4 are reproduced as follows:                    
               1.  A battery mounted integrated circuit device,                       
          comprising:                                                                 
               a semiconductor chip in which an integrated circuit                    
          including a plurality of power receiving circuits with different            
          operating voltages is formed;                                               
               a thin film laminated battery, made of a solid                         
          electrolytic film mounted on said semiconductor chip, for                   
          producing a plurality of voltages; and                                      
               a power source switch incorporated in said integrated                  
          circuit for connecting said battery to said power receiving                 
          circuits to supply said plurality of voltages from said battery             
          to said power receiving circuits on demand.                                 
               4.  A battery mounted integrated circuit device,                       
          comprising:                                                                 
               a semiconductor chip in which an integrated circuit                    
          including at least one power receiving circuit is formed;                   
               a normal power source for supplying power to said                      
          integrated circuit;                                                         
                                          2
