Appeal No. 1997-4069 Page 14
Application No. 08/282,913
the claimed limitations of an IC die mounted over an opening
in a PCB so that a sensor probe can access the die through the
opening. The examiner impermissibly relies on the appellant’s
teachings or suggestions; he has not established a prima facie
case of obviousness. Therefore, we reverse the rejections of
claims 18-21 under 35 U.S.C. § 103.
CONCLUSION
To summarize, the rejection of claims 1-21 under 35
U.S.C. § 103 is reversed.
REVERSED
