Appeal No. 1999-1131 Application No. 08/754,758 and the first and second sides are substantially perpendicular to each other. We have already established that neither Michael, Takeda, Murai nor Werther teaches or suggests, either individually or in combination, first and second pins arranged on perpendicular sides. Therefore, based on this prior reasoning, we reverse the Examiner's rejection of claims 14-17 as obvious over the combination of Michael, and Takeda. Considering independent claim 18, it likewise includes the claim limitation common to independent claims 1, 10, and 14. Specifically, claim 18 recites first pins and second pins, wherein first pins are provided on a first side of a semiconductor and second pins are provided on a second side and the first and second sides are substantially perpendicular to each other. Having already established that neither Michael nor Werther teaches or suggests, either individually or in combination, first and second pins arranged on perpendicular sides, we reverse the Examiner's rejection of claim 18 as obvious over the combination of Michael and Werther. 15Page: Previous 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
