Abstract: A non-volatile memory device includes a plurality of MOS transistors 34 and 36 connected to respective word lines 16 and 18 to allow individual pages of memory stored in the memory cells 8a, 10a and 8b, 10b on the respective word lines 16 and 18 to be erased and erase verified. A method of erasing a page of memory cells includes the steps of applying an erase voltage to one of the MOS transistors 16 and 18 to erase the page of memory cells along the respective word line, and applying an initial erase-inhibit floating voltage to other MOS transistors which are connected to the word lines unselected for page erase. In an erase verify mode, an erase verify voltage is applied to the word line which was selected for page erase in the erase mode, and an erase verify unselect voltage is applied to the word lines which was not selected for page erase.

Title: Alternative structure to SOI using proton beams
Inventor: LIAU JUNG-BIN
IPC: H01L21/00
Filed: 1999-12-16
Granted: 2001-07-21
Abstract: An alternative to conventional silicon on insulator (SOI) substrate and dielectric filled trenches for conventional electrical isolation of integrated circuits is disclosed. This has been achieved by using proton beam bombardment to form semi-insulating regions. For all embodiments, the process of the invention begins only after the integrated circuit has been fully formed. In a first embodiment, protons bombard the entire back surface of the wafer thereby forming a silicon wafer of semi-insulating material (resistivity greater than 10<SP>5</SP> ohm-cm) on which the active and passive components rest. In the second embodiment, isolation trenches are formed by proton beam bombarding on a contact mask formed by means of LIGA or similar technology. The third embodiment is a combination of the first two wherein both isolation regions and the semi-insulating substrate are formed.

Title: Ferroelectric memory device
Inventor: YAMADA JUNICHI
IPC: G11C14/00
Filed: 2000-09-01
Granted: 2002-05-21
Abstract: There is provided a highly reliable non-volatile ferroelectric memory device in which the permitted number of read/write operation cycles is increased. The device comprises a step-down power supply circuit which generates a supply voltage VINT which is lower than a supply voltage VDD fed from the outside but not less than a coercive voltage of the ferroelectrics for the purpose of improving the resistance to fatigue of and imprinting to the ferroelectrics. Since the characteristics of the ferroelec tries deteriorate more due to fatigue and imprinting as the voltage applied to the ferroelectrics increases, a supply voltage for sense amplifiers and voltage supply circuits are selected to be VINT so that VINT is applied to the ferroelectric capacitors, while a supply voltage for other peripheral circuits is selected to be VDD. With this structure, the reliability of the device with respect to its read/write operations can significantly be improved as compared to the conventional ferroelectric memory devices by minimizing the effect that the signal voltage is reduced and by increasing the permitted number of operation cycles.

Title: Photosensor array using multiple exposures to reduce thermal noise
Inventor: SPEARS KURT
IPC: H04N5/361
Filed: 2000-12-01
Granted: 2003-02-21
Abstract: In an image scanner, multiple exposures are used for each scan line, and only part of the pixels for each scan line are used for each exposure. For example, with two exposures, half the pixels (112) may be used for the first exposure, and half (114) for the second exposure. For each exposure, half of the charges are shifted out rapidly and discarded, without waiting for the A/D conversion time. As a result, for each exposure, the time required to empty the charge shift register (104) is greatly reduced, reducing the thermal noise for all pixels.

Title: Selected data compression for digital pictorial information
Inventor: VAN DE VEN ANTONY
IPC: H04N5/66
Filed: 2001-06-21
Granted: 2003-12-01
Abstract: This invention provides a method and apparatus to selectively compress digital image data for the supply of that information to digital display screens or storage. The invention utilizes a digital input containing a non-linear representation between the value and the intended intensity and linearizes this into a higher order number. If the higher order number is below at least a first threshold, it is transmitted or stored on a lower order data system noting that the higher order bits or channels should all be zero. If the higher order value is above the threshold, the highest order bits of that value are transmitted or stored on the lower order data system so that only the lowest order bits are lost, The received input from the lower order data system can then be decoded and the data sent to drive a digital display or otherwise utilized. As the linearization process introduces substantial errors in the lower order numbers and minimal errors in the higher order numbers, this invention seeks to increase the accuracy of those lower order numbers by offsetting this against introducing some additional error into the higher order numbers. Further embodiments utilize multiple stages of compression.
