Patent EP-1361501-A3 (EP)
Inventor: WATTS LAVAUGHN
IPC: G06F1/28
Filed: 1996-02-26
Abstract: A real-time power conservation and thermal management apparatus
and method for portable computers employs a monitor (40) to
determine whether a CPU may rest based upon a real-time sample
of the CPU activity and temperature levels and to activate a
hardware selector(500, 510, 520, 530) to carry out the monitor's
determination. If the monitor determines the CPU may rest, the
hardware selector reduces CPU clock time (280); if the CPU is to
be active, the hardware selector returns the CPU to its previous
high speed clock level (330). Switching back into full
operation from its rest state occurs without a user having to
request it and without any delay in the operation of the
computer while waiting for the computer to return to a "ready"
state. Furthermore, the monitor adjusts the performance level
of the computer to manage power conservation and thermal
management in response to the real-time sampling of CPU activity
(10) and temperature (24). Such adjustments are accomplished
within the CPU cycles and do not affect the user's perception of
performance and do not affect any system application not affect
any system application software executing on the computer.

Abstract: In the present invention, when a CG object is overlapped onto a photographed real scenery image as a background and an image of a photographed real photographic subject is synthesized in front of the overlapped image, an image in which the photographed real background and the photographic subject are photo-taken simultaneously without photo-taking the photographed real background and the photographic subject independently is synthesized with CG. In the present invention, the photographed real image including a specific image is acquired, and area information representing an area of the specific image from the photographed real image, and an area other than the area of the specific image of the photographed real image is synthesized with a computer graphics image by using the area information detected.

Abstract: In a semiconductor fabrication facility, a conveyor
(12) transports substrates carriers (14). The substrate
carriers are unloaded from the conveyor and loaded onto the
conveyor without stopping the conveyor. A load and/or
unload mechanism (32) lifts the substrate carriers (14) from
the conveyor during unloading operations, while matching the
horizontal speed of the conveyor. Similarly, during loading
operations, the load/unload mechanism lowers a substrate
carrier into engagement with the conveyor while matching the
horizontal speed of the conveyor. Individual substrates,
without carriers, may be similarly loaded and/or unloaded
from a conveyor.

Abstract: A high-frequency voltage whose amplitude is small is applied as a d-phase command voltage, and an excitation phase is changed to a predetermined degree at predetermined intervals, whereby a motor is driven. As the d-phase command voltage has the small amplitude and high frequency, the rotor of the motor does not rotate. A d-phase feed back current is detected, and the product of a derivative of the d-phase feed back current by the high-frequency voltage command is calculated. A high-frequency component is removed from the product. An excitation phase (direction of a magnetic flux) associated with a deviation of 0 or n from the position of a magnetic flux and also associated with a peak value assumed by the product having the high-frequency component removed therefrom is detected. A plurality of thus detected excitation phases is averaged in order to determine the direction of a magnetic flux. The excitation phase associated with one of two peak values assumed by the product is adopted on a fixed basis. Positive and negative rectangular waves having a magnitude causing magnetic saturation are applied as d-phase voltage commands. The polarity of a magnetic pole is determined based on positive and negative d-phase feed back currents. As the direction of a magnetic flux and the polarity thereof are detected separately from each other, the position of a magnetic pole can be detected accurately and reliably.

Abstract: A means of neutralizing the excess charge on workpieces, such as semiconductor wafers, that results from ion-implantation processes, wherein the excess positive charge on a small area of the workpiece surface is locally sensed, and in response, an appropriate dose of charge-compensating electrons is delivered from an electron emission source to the area of excess charge on the workpiece. A charge-sensing probe and a voltage-controlled electron generator array are configurationally and operatively coupled in a closed feedback loop, and are made to scan the surface of the workpiece, in close but non-contacting proximity to the workpiece. Arrays of charge-sensing probes and electron generator arrays can be configured for rapid coverage of the implanted areas of the workpiece. The present invention has significant advantages over other methods, such as plasma and electron showers and plasma flood systems, for neutralizing the excess charge due to ion implantation.
