Patent EP-1024534-A3 (EP)
Inventor: CHANG CHORNG-PING
IPC: H01L23/522
Filed: 2000-01-19
Abstract: It has been discovered that for semiconductor devices such as
MOSFETs, there is significant capacitive coupling in the front-end
structure, i.e., the structure from and including the device substrate up
to the first metal interconnect level. The invention therefore provides a
device comprising a silicon substrate, an isolation structure in the
substrate (e.g., shallow trench isolation), an active device structure (e.g.,
a transistor structure), a dielectric layer over the active device structure,
and a metal interconnect layer over the dielectric layer (metal-1 level).
At least one of the dielectric components of the front-end structure
comprise a material exhibiting a dielectric constant less than 3.5. This
relatively low dielectric constant material reduces capacitive coupling in
the front-end structure, thereby providing improved properties in the
device.

IPC: H01L21/8249
Filed: 2000-06-27
Abstract: A method for forming a polysilicon resistor with a relatively low
temperature coefficient of resistance (TCRL) resistor (141). As a first step, a
protective oxide (140) is deposited over the epi layer (11). This layer protects any
exposed emitter polysilicon layer (132) from etching when the TCRL regions are
defined. A polysilicon layer (142) is deposited in the opening. Next, the polysilicon
layer is implanted with a BF2 implant (143). Finally, the TCRL (141) is covered
with a photoresist and etched to its suitable size. The TCRL layer (141) is then
covered with a protective oxide. The oxide is suitably patterned and masked to
protect the underlying portion of the TCRL (141).

IPC: G10L19/00
Filed: 2000-10-20
Abstract: A system for transmitting, receiving, recovering, and reproducing digitized samples of analog signals while concealing unrecoverable digitized samples of analog signals to maintain a level of fidelity in reproducing the analog signals. The digitized samples of the analog signals are burst transmitted such that the probability of interference with the transmission and thus corruption of the digitized samples of the analog signals is minimized. The digitized samples are received without synchronizing a receiving clock with a transmitting clock to capture the digitized samples of the analog signals. The digitized samples are converted from various sampling rates to digitized samples of the analog signals having a rate. Any large groups of digitized samples that are in error or corrupted in transmission are softly muted to avoid annoying clicks. Any long term difference between a transmit clock and a receive clock is tracked and the digitized samples are interpolated or decimated to eliminate any underrun or overrun of the digitized samples. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A removable snowboard boot liner (30) made from Ethyl Vinyl Acetate with an air bladder (10)
attached therein and a method of mass producing such liners. An oily chalk like substance
consisting of 90% sweet starch, 9% lubricant and 1% stearate is included between the two sheets
that make up the bladder. The bladder is attached to the EVA before the EVA is folded, stitched,
heated and molded. This allows the bladder to be attached while the EVA is still flat and allows
the attachment to be performed by machine stitching. The bladder is partially inflated before the
EVA is heated and molded. The oily chalk like substance and the partial inflation of the bladder
allows the installed bladder to pass through the heating and molding steps of the EVA without the
two sheets that make up the bladder melting together. The invention also consists of a design and
installation of the bladder that minimizes the amount of slipping of a wearer's foot and heal within
the boot.
