A nozzle assembly for an inkjet printhead is disclosed. The nozzle assembly includes an inkjet nozzle having an actuator for ejecting an ink droplet from the inkjet nozzle, and control logic for outputting a control pulse in response to input data. The nozzle assembly also includes a drive transistor for providing an energy pulse to the actuator upon receipt of the control pulse. Each energy pulse applied to the actuator for ejecting the ink droplet has a pulse voltage of less than 5 Volt and energy of less than 800 nano Joule. |
