Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are presented herein for improved operation of a Universal Integrated Circuit Card (UICC) of one or more user equipment (UE). For example, an example method of wireless communications is presented, which may include monitoring, by a UE, one or more items received from a UICC of the UE during a UICC operation. In addition, the example method may also include determining that at least one of (a) a number of the one or more items having a first item type exceeds a threshold number, or (b) an elapsed time since the UICC operation started exceeds a threshold time. Moreover, the example method may include providing, based on the determining, a notification to a user interface associated with the UE indicating that the UICC operation is ongoing.
Abstract:
A 1-chip microcomputer of the present invention has (a) a monitor flag for setting a flag indicating that a specified address space is accessed, (b) an access permission address range setting register, for setting an address range in which an access is permitted while the flag is set, (c) an access permission area detection circuit for judging whether the access is made within the address range thus set, (d) an access permission setting register, for setting whether or not an access with respect to an address other than the address range should be permitted, and (e) memory read-out control circuit and memory writing control circuit for controlling an access with respect to a nonvolatile memory based on a result thus judged and content set by the access permission setting register. With the arrangement, it is possible to provide a 1-chip microcomputer that maintains the security among application programs.

Abstract:
A power IC for an automobile engine control unit incorporating at least one semiconductor device comprising an N-channel insulated-gate filed-effect transistor formed on an SOI substrate, having an N-type layer having a concentration higher than a concentration of an N-type layer in contact with a p-body layer contacting a gate oxide film of the transistor. The high concentration N-type layer is formed in a region covering at most 95% of the source-drain distance between the p-body layer and a drain electrode of the transistor in the silicon substrate over an interface of a buried oxide film, the silicon substrate being in contact with both the field oxide film and the high concentration N-type layer contacting the drain electrode.
Abstract:
In a circuit designed to output a varying output voltage, the substrate of the semi-conductor component is connected to a regulator, in particular a switch, connected to a lower potential than the potential of the substrate of the circuit. The circuit can for example he used in a Subscriber Line interface Circuit (SLIC).
Abstract:
A switch includes first and second switch terminals, at least one output MOS transistor for selectively connecting the first and second switch terminals, and a driving current source for driving the at least one output MOS transistor. The switch may also include a current limiter for limiting the driving of the at least one output MOS transistor by the driving current source to establish a current limit. Furthermore, a controller may be included for the current limiter for controlling the current limit, such as by causing the current limiter to decrease the current limit based upon an increase in temperature of the integrated circuit or at periodic intervals to control rise and fall times of the at least one output MOS transistor.

Disclosed is a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal comprises a body, an insulating bezel surrounding the periphery of the body, and a wire that is located in the insulating bezel and that acts as an antenna. The wire comprises a first line segment and at least two bending line segments that are connected to the first line segment. The bending line segments bend and extend into convex shapes from the connecting position of the first line segment, at least one bending line segment acts as the ground point of the antenna, and at least one bending line segment acts as the feed point of the antenna.
