          Appeal No. 2002-1219                                                        
          Application No. 09/471,667                                                  



          appellant has disclosed and is claiming but only that the claims            
          on appeal "read on" something disclosed in the reference, i.e.,             
          all limitations of the claim are found in the reference. See                
          Kalman v. Kimberly-Clark Corp. , 713 F.2d 760, 772, 218 USPQ 781,           
          789 (Fed. Cir. 1983), cert. denied, 465 U.S. 1026 (1984).                   



               Claim 1, the sole independent claim in the application, sets           
          forth a micro device processing system useable with a micro                 
          device using assembly system having a control system and a                  
          robotic handling system, comprising, inter alia, an input feeder,           
          a processing system, with the input feeder and the processing               
          system being capable of communication with the control system,              
          the input feeder being responsive to communication with the                 
          control system to feed micro devices, the processing system being           
          capable of processing the micro devices and communicating to the            
          control system, and the robotic handling system being responsive            
          to communication of the processing system with the control system           
          to take micro devices and place them on the assembly system.                


               The examiner concludes that the claimed invention is                   
          anticipated on the basis of an acknowledged prior art processing            

                                          6
