Abstract

An inkjet printhead assembly includes a carrier and a plurality of printhead dies. The carrier includes a substrate and an electrical circuit. The substrate has a first side and a second side such that the electrical circuit is disposed on the second side of the substrate. The printhead dies are each mounted on the first side of the substrate and electrically coupled to the electrical circuit Thus, the substrate provides support for the printhead dies while the substrate and the electrical circuit together accommodate fluidic and electrical routing to the printhead dies.
