Abstract (en)

In an ink jet printhead (100) comprising ejection resistors (Ri) and MOS transistors (TRi) for supplying the resistors the energy for ejecting droplets of ink, integrated on the same semiconductor substrate, a given range of values is defined for the ratio of the channel resistance (Rc) during conduction of the MOS transistor to the resistance (R) of the ejection resistor so that the energetic operating point (El) of the ejection resistor is automatically compensated for variations in temperature (Ts) of the substrate, thereby assuring quality of printing and preventing ejection resistor conditions of operation liable to damage the resistor itself. <IMAGE>
