Abstract: Procédé de codage et de décodage d'une séquence d'informations numériques qui fait appel à une combinaison de deux codes de blocs pour corriger et détecter simultanément des erreurs. La fiabilité des données décodées par un code de bloc de correction d'erreurs est vérifiée par comparaison du résultat de l'opération de décodage à l'aide de la parité brute ou d'une parité corrigée déterminée grâce à l'utilisation d'un second code de blocs correcteur d'erreurs, comme suit: la séquence d'informations est codée par un premier étage du codeur pour produire un mot de code d'informations comportant un vecteur d'informations et un vecteur de redondance primaire. Le vecteur de redondance primaire est codé dans un second étage du codeur pour obtenir un mot de code de redondance. Le mot de code d'informations et le mot de code de redondance sont imbriqués et transmis au récepteur où ils sont décodés dans un premier étage du décodeur pour obtenir une première estimation du mot de code d'informations. La première estimation du mot de code d'informations est décodée dans un second étage du décodeur pour produire une seconde estimation du mot de code d'informations. La distance entre les première et seconde estimations du code d'informations est évaluée. Si elle est supérieure à un, le mot de code reçu est effacé. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, la séquence d'informations est répétée au niveau du récepteur. Chaque répétition comporte un contrôle de parité résultant du même code ou de codes différents. Les vecteurs d'information reçus sont sélectivement combinés et ensuite individuellement décodés à l'aide de vecteurs de parité individuels pour générer des estimations multiples de la séquence d'informations. Les estimations sont ensuite combinées à l'aide de techniques de combinaison dures ou douces.

Abstract: A method for forming a copper interconnect (54)
begins by depositing a barrier layer (48). An
intermediate layer (50) is formed over the barrier
layer (48) by exposing the barrier layer (48) to a
plasma silane environment. The layer (50) is
conductive when deposited so that contact resistance
is not affected. The layer(50) is insitu covered with a
copper seed layer (52). The layer (52) is not formed in
an edge exclusion region (20) thereby exposing a
portion (50a) of the layer (50). This portion (50a) will
natively oxidize in a room ambient to form a copper
electroplating prevention barrier whereby copper will
not electroplate in the region (20). Therefore, the
region (50a) prevents barrier-to-copper interfaces to
avoid delamination of the copper while preserving the
edge exclusion region desired for copper
electroplating.
