          Appeal No. 96-2025                                                          
          Application 07/860,254                                                      


          brief that Inada does not teach the claimed symmetrical                     
          voltage because Inada teaches in Figure 4 that the waveform                 
          X2-Y1 has a voltage in the N frame that is not symmetrical to               
          the voltage in the P frame.                                                 
               Appellants reemphasize the point in all of the reply                   
          briefs.  In particular, Appellants argue on page 4 of the June              
          19, 1995 reply brief that Figure 6 (3) illustrates a negative               
          voltage being applied to a picture element and a positive                   
          voltage being applied to the same picture element.  Appellants              
          further argue                                                               




          that if the first pulse in Figure 6 (3), namely the negative                
          voltage pulse, is reoriented to a positive pulse, the first                 
          pulse is identical to the second pulse shown in Figure 6 (3).               


          Accordingly, Appellants submit that the waveform applied to                 
          the picture element in independent claims 1 through 9 is                    
          symmetrical, because a value represented by a binary coded                  
          signal is applied first to the picture element, and then the                
          binary complement of the binary code signal is applied to the               
                                          8
