Appeal No. 1998-0096
Application No. 08/518,182
Fujimoto, Saito (JP4-6841), Chun and Tsukagoshi, because
Tsukagoshi does not make up for the deficiencies of Fujimoto,
Saito (JP4-6841), and Chun, as discussed above regarding
claims 21 through 23.
Rejection under 37 CFR § 1.196(b)
Pursuant to the provisions of 37 CFR § 1.196(b), we
hereby enter the following new grounds of rejection:
Claims 7 through 18, 21 through 27, and 29 through 33 are
rejected for failure to comply with the written description
requirement of the first paragraph of 35 U.S.C. § 112. In
particular, we find that the originally filed application
disclosure does not support the recitations "the cross section
area of said single polymer body. . .has a circular shape and
is smaller than that of each said integrated circuit element
input/output pad; . . ." (claims 7 and 9), "the cross section
area of said single polymer body. . .has a circular shape and
is smaller than that of each said substrate input/output pad;
. . ." (claim 8), "said composite bumps have a circular cross
section; . . ." (claim 21), "the cross section area of said
single polymer body. . .is smaller than that of each said
integrated circuit element input/output pad. . . " (claim 22),
