Patent TW-I241590-B (TW)
Title: Novel method and structure for efficient data verification operation for non-volatile memories
Inventor: CONLEY KEVIN M
IPC: G11C16/02
Filed: 2001-12-28
Granted: 2005-10-11
Abstract: An improved flash EEPROM memory-based storage subsystem includes one or more flash memory arrays, each with three data registers and a controller circuit. During a flash program operation, one data register is used to control the program operation, a second register is used to hold the target data value, and a third register is used to load the next sector's data. Subsequent to a flash program operation, a sector's data are read from a flash array into the first data register and compared to the target data stored in the second register. When the data is verified good, the data from the third register is copied into the first and second registers for the next program operation. This creates an improved performance system that doesn't suffer data transfer latency during program operations that require data verification after the program operation is complete. Alternate embodiments perform the comparison using two register implementations and a single register implementations. The post-writer verification can be repeated and use different bias conditions for reading the data. The process can be automatic or executed by command that can specify the read conditions.

Title: Method of producing a semiconductor device with a T-shaped contact electrode
Inventor: BEHAMMER DAG
IPC: H01L21/285
Filed: 2002-03-04
Granted: 2003-07-21
Abstract: For producing a semiconductor device with a cross-sectionally T-shaped metallic contact electrode, in particular a field-effect transistor with a T gate, a self-aligning method with optical lithography is specified for creating a foot width of the electrode in the submicrometer range, in which method a first wide aperture with the head structure of the T electrode is created by an optical lithography mask. This wide aperture is constricted by opposing spacers to a significantly smaller width, which fixes the dimension of the electrode foot. A protective layer, which is only opened in a late process step and is later removed, prevents damage to sensitive semiconductor regions during the production process.

Abstract: The present invention provides an OPC mask manufacturing method, OPC mask, and chip, which enable suppression of variation of the line width of a pattern to be actually formed over a wafer by doing simulations reflecting the influence of the space dependence with fidelity. According to the present invention, the actually measured data on a new test pattern of a testing mask is about the line width of each gate pattern. On the basis of the actually measured data and the design data of the new test pattern, simulation calculation is carried out to output the simulation data on the new test pattern having a shape varied by an optical proximity effect. If the simulation accuracy is judged to be acceptable, a kernel is created. By this kernel, simulations are done.

Title: Compressor
Inventor: SHIU WEN-SHAU
IPC: F04C18/30
Filed: 2002-12-25
Granted: 2003-10-21
Abstract: A compressor comprises a casing, a rotor rotatably and eccentrically arranged in the casing and defining a slot, and a slide plate slidably received in the slot. The casing has a circumferential wall with an inner circumferential face and defining an inlet and an outlet connected to the inner circumferential face. The rotor and the circumferential wall define a hermetic space. An edge of the slide plate abuts against the inner circumferential face and an opposite edge is adjacent to the inner circumferential face to divide the hermetic space into two compression chambers, respectively connecting with the inlet and the outlet. When the rotor rotates, the slide plate is forced to slide in the slot, whereby fluid that is drawn into the compression chamber via the inlet is compressed and then discharged through the outlet. The above-mentioned design results in reduction of the centrifugal force of the slide plate and the wall contact friction so as to realize long-term operation.

Abstract: Apparatus for reversing a sheet such as a banknote from a front face to a rear face, and vice versa. A reversing apparatus 1 is constructed on the basis of a path configuration wherein one end of common path S communicates with an exit of a first conveyance path 6, the other end of common path S communicates with an exit of a second conveyance path 7, and the one end of common path S communicates with a merging path 8. Since this path arrangement is provided with the merging path 8 immediately after the common path S, no delay is caused in the timing of feeding a banknote R into the next processing step. As a result, an improvement is made in reversing process performance. Furthermore, first reversing roller 21 undergoes rotation based on on/off of first electromagnetic clutch 23 and, likewise, second reversing roller 22 also undergoes rotation based on on/off of second electromagnetic clutch 27. Thus, the banknote R can be quickly and surely conveyed in the common path S. <IMAGE>
