`Axonics’ Insufficient Showing under

`
`• Axonics’ fails to make the requisite analysis to establish a
`prima facie case of obviousness
`
`• Axonics’ simply points to an input in Fischell and allegedly
`another input in Fischell ’260, and provides the following
`conclusory statement:

`Schulman Does Not Disclose Two Separate Inputs

`battery voltage as an input

`
`The single measurement
