Appeal No. 2002-1173
Application No. 09/510,640
instruction. As indicated by Appellants (oral hearing), since
the power-on reset of Hsieh used “to initialize the various
components when power is first applied to the circuit” (col. 1,
lines 23-25) is also applied in the event of a power supply dip,
Hsieh does not repeat any of the operations influenced by the
dip. The subject matter of claims 1 and 9 would not, therefore,
have been prima facie anticipated by Hsieh. Accordingly, we do
not sustain the rejection of claims 1-9.
