              Appeal No. 1999-0602                                                                                        
              Application 08/469,393                                                                                      



              the input coil 11.  Note the bottom of page 5 of the translation of this reference.  Finally,               
              appellant’s comment at the bottom of page 6 of the reply brief that the secondary                           
              references do not provide analog feedback with the simple circuitry that appellant claims is                
              misplaced.  Appellant only claims broadly an analog feedback means providing various                        
              functional features, which the secondary reference do teach and show.                                       
                     In view of the foregoing, we have sustained the examiner’s rejection based upon                      
              obviousness-type double patenting of claims 1-3, 6 and 8-14.  We have also sustained the                    
              rejection in the alternative of claim 15 under 35 U.S.C. § 102 and 35 U.S.C. § 103.  We                     
              have also sustained the examiner’s rejection of claims 12-14 under 35 U.S.C.                                
              § 103.  Therefore, the decision of the examiner is affirmed.                                                





















                                                           13
