Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for fabricating IC structures that include stacked vias providing electrical connectivity between metal lines of different layers of a metallization stack, as well as resulting IC structures. An example IC structure includes a first and a second metallization layers, including, respectively, a bottom metal line and a top metal line. The IC structure further includes a via that has a bottom via portion and a top via portion, where the top via portion is stacked over the bottom via portion (hence, the via may be referred to as a "stacked via"). The bottom via portion is coupled and self-aligned to the bottom electrically conductive line, while the top via portion is coupled and self-aligned to the top electrically conductive line. The bottom via portion is formed using subtractive patterning, while the top via portion may be formed using a different fabrication technique, such as Damascene fabrication.
Patent EP-4080374-A1 (EP)

IPC: G06F13/42
Filed: 2022-02-18
Abstract: According to one embodiment, a device control apparatus includes a communication interface connectable to several client terminals via a network and a local device interface connectable to several peripheral devices. The device control apparatus functions as registration unit configured to receive an occupation request for a peripheral device from a client terminal and then register the peripheral device for which the occupation request has been received as occupied by the client terminal if the peripheral device is not registered as occupied by another client terminal. A setting unit sets a release time for releasing the occupation of the registered peripheral device, and an update unit updates the release time whenever communication occurs between the registered peripheral device and the client terminal. A release unit releases the registered occupation of the peripheral device once the release time elapses.

Abstract: Provided is an apparatus for taking out a molded product, which is capable of determining occurrence of a suction error and/or likelihood of a suction error of the molded product with high accuracy and of knowing a cause thereof. A pressure data storing section stores time-series pressure data from a pressure detector. A suction error cause determining section determines occurrence of a suction error and/or likelihood of a suction error of a molded product by a suction member on a basis of a time-series comparison result obtained by comparing the stored time-series pressure data with predetermined time-series reference data. When the suction error cause determining section determines the occurrence of the suction error and/or the likelihood of the suction error, the suction error cause determining section determines a cause of the occurring suction error and a solution therefor based on a time-series change pattern.
