                   Before HAIRSTON, JERRY SMITH, and SAADAT, Administrative Patent Judges.                                           
                   HAIRSTON, Administrative Patent Judge.                                                                            
                                                ON REQUEST FOR REHEARING                                                             
                           In a decision dated June 22, 2006, the Board found that evidence presented by the                         
                   appellant was not sufficient to antedate the effective filing date of the Telya publication                       
                   which was used by the examiner to reject all of the claims on appeal.                                             
                           Appellant now argues (request, page 2) that “[t]he Board, in its decision, appears to                     
                   focus on evidence prior to the Telya date, i.e., Rule 131 Declaration and Exhibits 2 & 3,                         
                   while ignoring the evidence of invention on the Telya date, i.e. the Rule 131 Declaration                         
                   and Exhibit 1.”  We find that “[t]he mere recital of timing registers, control registers, an                      
                   interface and a state machine in the last paragraph on page 1 of Exhibit 1 is not evidence
