Patent EP-0439948-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FRANKNEY RICHARD FRANCES
IPC: H01L21/66
Filed: 1990-12-20
Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for testing integrated circuit devices (10). A ferromagnetic test substrate (16) is manufactured, utilizing a process substantially similar to the process utilized to create the integrated circuit devices to be tested, such that the test substrate and the integrated circuit devices are thermally matched. The test substrate preferably includes a plurality of electrical contact points which correspond to a plurality of electrical contact points within the integrated circuit device. By aligning the ferromagnetic test substrate and integrated circuit device to be tested in a position proximate to an electromagnet (14) and selectively energizing the electromagnet, the electrical contact points within the ferromagnetic test substrate are magnetically urged into contact with the electrical contact points within the integrated circuit device. An integrated circuit device tester (20) is then electrically coupled to the ferromagnetic test substrate and utilized to test each integrated circuit device during this magnetically induced electrical connection. In one embodiment of the present invention, a second electromagnet (28) having a magnetic polarity opposite that of the first electromagnet is provided and positioned opposite the first electromagnet such that upon energization the electromagnets are urged together, further ensuring electrical contact between the test substrate and the integrated circuit device. In this embodiment, a flexible cushion (30) is provided to equally distribute the pressure between the two electromagnets.

Abstract: An output controller of an internal combustion engine of this invention determines a target torque of a driving shaft in an automobile based on a step-in stroke of an acceleration pedal, determines the difference between this target torque and an actual torque of the driving shaft and determines a steady output torque necessary for providing the target torque to the driving shaft by assuming that the automobile inclusive of the internal combustion engine as a whole is in a steady operating state. In the output controller, a steady intake of the internal combustion engine which provides the steady output torque to the engine is determined and corrected by a feedback quantity based on the difference described above. In this manner, a target intake of the internal combustion engine is determined and the opening of the throttle value is controlled so as to attain this target intake.

Patent EP-0455197-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SCHULZ WILLIAM JAMES
IPC: C07F7/12
Filed: 1991-04-29
Abstract: The present invention is a process for reducing the number of halogens on organohalosilanes and volatile organohalopolysilanes, while preventing unwanted reactions. The process takes advantage of the high susceptibility of the silicon-halogen bond to chemical reduction by an alkylaluminum hydride. This susceptibility allows the halogen to be quickly removed from the organohalosilane, forming reduced product, before less favorable reactions can occur. The reduced product is immediately removed from the reaction mixture by vacuum distillation, preventing further reactions. The process may be used to remove one or more, or all, of the halogens from organohalosilanes and volatile organohalopolysilanes.
