    摘要: A high-density plasma process is proposed for depositing a layer of Silicon Nitride on a substrate in a plasma reactor. The process includes the steps of: providing a gas including precursor components of the Silicon Nitride, generating a plasma applying a radio-frequency power to the gas, and the plasma reacting with the substrate to deposit the layer of Silicon Nitride. The power applied to the gas is in the range from 2.5 kW to 4 kW.

    摘要: Digital video signals, such as the signals generated by an image sensor in a Bayer format, are converted into an encoded format. In the Bayer format, the pixels of each line are alternately coded with two colors, and then converted into the encoded format. In the encoded format, the pixels of the digital video signals are reordered into sets of adjacent pixels, such that the sets group pixels coded with the same color. The encoded signal data results in a reduced switching activity when transmitted over a bus.

    摘要: A method for incrementing, decrementing or two's complementing a first string of bits includes generating an auxiliary string of bits as a function of the first string, and logically combining the auxiliary string with the first string to generate a corresponding output string. A least significant bit of the auxiliary string is independent from the bits of the first string, and any other bit of the auxiliary string. The method is particularly convenient for generating an overflow flag when the number to be output exceeds the representation interval. An overflow flag is generated by logically combining the most significant bits of the first and auxiliary strings.

    摘要: A method for detecting a null current condition in a PWM driven inductor connected between a voltage source node and a second circuit node of a line for outputting current to a load includes generating a derivative signal by time differentiating a voltage on the second node. The method further includes monitoring an instant when the derivative signal becomes negative, and signaling verification of the null current condition each time the derivative signal becomes negative.

    摘要: A method of estimating a global motion vector representative of the motion of a first digital image with respect to a second digital image, the first and the second image forming part of a sequence of images and being made up of, respectively, a first and a second pixel matrix.

    摘要: A method of self-calibrating a modulator includes at least one integrator likely to incur a phase error may include reading a pulse response of the modulator, calculating a phase error parameter of the at least one integrator, and calibrating the phase error parameter. In addition, the calibration may provide a count of pulse response samples above suitable threshold values, as well as a change in the value of a capacitor associated with the integrator based upon the sample count.
