Patent EP-0616372-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HSHIEH FWU-IUAN
IPC: H01L29/08
Filed: 1994-03-15
Abstract: A DMOS transistor having a trenched gate is formed in a substrate such that the P body region of the transistor may be formed heavier or deeper while still maintaining a "short" channel. This is accomplished by forming a portion of the N+ type source region within the P body region prior to forming the trench, followed by a second implantation and diffusion of a relatively shallow extension of the N+ source region formed overlying a part of the P body region. The increased depth or doping concentration of the P body region advantageously lowers the resistance of the P body region, while the short channel lowers the on-resistance of the transistor for improved performance.

Abstract: A technique for modifying the IEEE 802.3 standard for selecting backoff times in a Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) network, in the event that a collision is sensed by a node that has captured the network communication channel. If there is a small number of active nodes on the network, one node may capture the channel and the standard backoff algorithm makes it increasingly unlikely for another node to transmit. The new technique provides for less aggressive, i.e. longer, backoff times before at least the first retransmission attempt made by a node that has captured the channel. Three specific examples of the technique are disclosed. Even though the invention represents a departure from the standard CSMA/CD backoff algorithm, the overall average backoff times provided by the invention can be selected to be consistent with the average times provided by the standard. Moreover, nodes using the invention interoperate successfully with nodes that do not.

Abstract: 64 regions are set on an image sensed picture of a video camera, where evaluating values r<sub>ij</sub>, b<sub>ij</sub>, and y<sub>ij</sub> are obtained by averaging color difference signals R-Y and B-Y and luminance signal Y obtained from an image sensing signal for over 1 field period by each region. When determination is made that the difference in the evaluating values between two continuing regions do not exceed a predetermined value according to the obtained evaluating values, that is, when determination is made that continuing regions have the same color, the weighing amount of the color evaluating values of a corresponding region is reduced in producing gain control signals regarding the color difference signals. As a result, the effect of objects of the same color towards white balance adjustment is reduced.

Abstract: The drill body (3) carries one or more cutters (4) of radial width (R), with tapering relief rearward (K), and having both radial and axial projection from the body. The rearward taper terminates in a novel reduced step (S) which improves the long-term cutting and wearing characteristics. The maximum axial projection (B) of the free end of the cutter from the step, is 0.3-0.5 times the total axial length of the cutter. The step is located close to the tip of the body, at the cutting end. The projecting radial width of the cutter reduces by 30% at the step, on both sides of the cutter. The body may be a core drill, in which the radial cutter width, at first tapering rearward, is then similarly step-reduced into the inner and outer contours of the body.

Abstract: The microelectronic integrated sensor has a shaped cantilever (13) on a support with side (15) and upper (16) movement limits at a gap from the cantilever edge. They allow compensating cantilever movements to absorb mechanical stress, but only at the support. Also claimed is a mfg. process where an oxide is formed on a substrate as a start material for the support. A second oxide layer (3) is deposited on it, with a higher etching rate than the first oxide. A polysilicon layer (4) is deposited to form the cantilever (13), dosed and recrystallised, together with an array of holes for further isotropic etching of the two oxide layers (3). A third oxide layer (6) is deposited, with the same etching rate as the second layer (3) for them to form the side movement limit (15). A layer (7), of a material with a lower etching rate than the second and third (3,6) oxide layers is applied to form the upper movement limit (16), followed by a second polysilicon layer (8) as a cover. The cover (8) layer has an array of holes to allow the passage of an etching fluid with an isotropic oxide etching of the hollow zone (10). The second and third (3,6) oxide layers can be covered by a deposited layer of boron phosphor silicate glass.

Abstract: The panel consists of an inner and a transparent outer wall shell (2,1), two heat insulation layers (3,5), and an absorbent border layer (6). The surface of the border layer towards the outer insulation layer (5) is coloured or structured. This determines the outer visual appearance of the wall construction. The heat passage resistance applied by outer and inner wall shells and outer heat insulation, the border layer absorption capability, determine that with maximum solar radiation and outside heat levels, the maximum temperature inside the wall construction does not rise above levels, which damage construction materials.
