           Appeal No. 2001-1115                                                                    
           Application No. 08/946,693                                                              

           extend to the edge of the portion of board as shown.  Appellants                        
           state that such a modification would result in a non-functioning                        
           component.  We agree.                                                                   
                 In view of the above, we therefore reverse the rejection.                         

           III. The rejection of claim 20 under 35 U.S.C. § 103                                    
                 Because Nagase does not cure the deficiencies of                                  
           Marcantonio as discussed above, we reverse this rejection.                              

           IV.  The rejection of claim 21 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being                           
                 obvious over Marcantonio in view of Streit and further in                         
                 view of appellants’ admitted prior art                                            
                 Because the secondary references of Streit and appellants’                        
           admitted prior art do not cure the aforementioned deficiencies                          
           of Marcantonio, we reverse this rejection.                                              

           V. The rejection of claims 10, 11, and 15                                               
                 Because the secondary reference of Rostoker does not cure                         
           the aforementioned deficiencies of Marcantonio, we reverse this                         
           rejection.                                                                              

           VI. The rejection of claims 17 through 19 under 35 U.S.C.                               
           § 103 as being obvious over Marcantonio in view of Agarwala                             
                 Because the secondary reference of Agarwala does not cure                         
           the aforementioned deficiencies of Marcantonio, we reverse this                         
           rejection.                                                                              








                                                 7
