Abstract: The invention concerns generally the technological field of planar antenna arrangements in portable radio devices. Especially but not exclusively the invention concerns inverted-F antenna arrangements. The invention also concerns a portable radio device equipped with such a planar antenna arrangement. And additionally the invention concerns a method for producing and testing a portable radio device comprising a planar antenna. One idea of the present invention is providing an aperture (322) in the radiator element (316) of the planar antenna. An RF test point (324) is also provided for aligning the RF electronics, and the RF test point is located in such a way related to the aperture of the radiator that the test signal (320) is easily led through the aperture. It is further advantageous that an RF switch (324, 326) is provided for coupling/decoupling a connection between the planar antenna and the RF electronics. In a preferred embodiment the RF switch is integrated with the RF test point. The inventive arrangement thus allows testing the RF electronics after the radiator plate (316) has been attached to the printed wired board (334).

IPC: H01L29/732
Filed: 2002-03-08
Abstract: In the manufacture of a semiconductor device,
after an insulating film (4) and a first polycrystalline
silicon film (5) are selectively dry etched to form a
contact hole, the substrate is cleaned with a cleansing
agent composed, for example, of ammonia, hydrogen
peroxide and water, to remove anomalous residues (8).
This suppresses the single-crystallization in
polycrystalline silicon that is to form the emitter
electrode, as well as preventing an interface oxide film
from remaining when a heat treatment is conducted to
diffuse dopants, and thereby it also regulates the
emitter dopant concentrations and thus lowers the emitter
electrode resistance, which will provide a stable h FE .
Anomalous bodies such as water-marks are not accidentally
produced in the cleaning step following dry etching step
to form the emitter electrode, and thereby an increase in
yield and enhancement of device reliability are achieved.

Abstract: A novel battery with a venting device and overcharge protection system. The battery
casing has an inner tube that completely surrounds a hollow core, an outer tube that
surrounds the inner tube, and end plates. The inner tube is welded at its ends to two
end plates. The inner tube, outer tube, and end plates form a sealed, hermetic
annular space in which the battery components are held. The inner tube is designed
to collapse into the hollow core when a pressure inside the annular space exceeds a
predetermined collapsing pressure, acting as a vent, and the welds connecting the inner tube to the
end plates are designed to break when the pressure inside the annular space exceeds
a predetermined breaking pressure. In addition, the invention can take advantage of
the fact that the inner tube is negatively charged by have a connecting member,
which is electrically connected to the anode and thus positively charged, that extends
into the hollow core. When the negatively charged inner tube collapses, it makes
contact with the positively charged connecting member, to provide a short circuit for
reducing the voltage of the battery.
