Appeal No. 96-2243 Application 08/327,447 We agree with the Appellants, the pins of Kishida are not part of the printed circuit, and the printed circuit is claimed to extend externally of the package. For these reasons we will not sustain the 35 U.S.C. § 102 or 35 U.S.C. § 103 rejections of claim 30, and likewise the rejection of dependent claims 31 through 33 which contain the same limitation discussed supra. Independent claim 34 contains the same limitation as discussed with regard to claim 30 (i.e. printed circuit which extends externally of the package), and we will therefore not sustain the 35 U.S.C. § 103 rejection of this claim. Likewise, we will not sustain this rejection of dependent claims 35 through 39 which contain the same limitation. 9Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
