Substrate for use of an ink jet recording head, an ink jet head using such substrate, a method for driving such substrate, and an ink jet head cartridge, and a liquid discharge apparatus

摘要

A substrate for an ink jet recording head is provided with a plurality of heat generating resistors for discharging ink. The wiring for applying the electric power supplied from outside to the plurality of heat generating resistors is divided into plural numbers, and each of the plurally divided wiring is arranged to provide substantially the same wiring resistive value from each of electrode pads arranged together therewith for receiving the supply of electric power from outside to each of the heat generating resistors. With the structure thus arranged, it is made possible to make the difference smaller in the voltage drop at the time of driving all the heat generating resisters simultaneously and driving only one of them, respectively, as well as to perform stabilized discharging of liquid for the formation of recorded images in good condition.
