Appeal No. 2006-1049
Application No. 09/667,826
(3)
35 U.S.C. § 102
87. The Examiner rejected reissue application claims 1, 5, 21-22, 40, 42,
and 48 as being unpatentable under 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) as being clearly anticipated
by U.S. Patent 4,752,694, to Hegel, Jr. et al (Hegel).
88. The Examiner reasoned in-part as follows (see Final Office Action
entered January 17, 2002, page 6):
[Hegel discloses] means 60 for selectively electrically connecting the
circuit elements 14 into the detector readout circuit in response to
stored offset correction values.
(4)
35 U.S.C. § 103
89. The Examiner rejected reissue application claims 6, 7, 12, 13, 15, 19,
24, 25, 44-47, and 50 have also been rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) on the
grounds that these claims are unpatentable over Hegel.
