    摘要: A system for processing a signal includes a detector configured to detect a two-level stream of bits; a converter configured to generate a three-level control signal based on two adjacent values within the two-level stream of bits; and a switch configured to determine which of three different paths to couple a current source to based on a value of the three-level control signal. Thus, based on adjacent values of the output stream a three-level control signal is generated which controls coupling of the current source to one of three different paths. This type of three-level digital-to-analog converter can be, for example, part of the feedback loop of an analog-to-digital converter. Similar techniques can also be utilized in a multi-segment digital-to-analog converter in which each segment of the DAC is controlled by a 3-level control signal and the DAC is implement using PMOS devices. The current source for each DAC segment is diverted to ground, the M-node, or the P-node depending on the value of the 3-level control signal.

    摘要: Methods of dicing semiconductor wafers, each wafer having a plurality of integrated circuits, are described. In an example, a method of dicing a semiconductor wafer having a plurality of integrated circuits on a front side of the semiconductor wafer includes adhering a back side the semiconductor wafer on the dicing tape of a substrate carrier. Subsequent to adhering the semiconductor wafer on a dicing tape, the dicing tape is treated with a UV-cure process. Subsequent to treating the dicing tape with the UV-cure process, a dicing mask is formed on the front side of the semiconductor wafer, the dicing mask covering and protecting the integrated circuits. The dicing mask is patterned with a laser scribing process to provide gaps in the dicing mask, the gaps exposing regions of the semiconductor wafer between the integrated circuits. The semiconductor wafer is plasma etched through the gaps in the dicing mask layer to singulate the integrated circuits.

An outer frame surrounds the inner opening. The outer frame has a bevel for accommodating an outermost portion of the substrate of the carrier and substrate assembly.
