Abstract
A wide-array inkjet printhead assembly includes a carrier and N printheads and a module manager disposed on the carrier. The module manager receives a serial input data stream and corresponding input clock signal from a printer controller located external from the inkjet printhead assembly. The module manager demultiplexes the serial data stream into N serial output data streams. The module manager provides the N serial output data streams and N corresponding output clock signals based on the input clock signal to the N printheads.
