Abstract:
A method of providing special functions includes receiving from a host a first normal command and a first address, and identifying a first special function based on the first normal command and the first address when the first address is in an address range established for special functions according to a predefined rule.
Abstract:
A memory system includes a flash memory including a block having first sub-blocks and second sub-blocks different from each other, the second sub-blocks including free pages only; and a controller configured to erase the flash memory in units of the sub-blocks, and in a garbage collection operation, the controller is configured to copy data of a valid page of the first sub-blocks to at least one of the second sub-blocks.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an apparatus for atomizing molten slag and recovering valuable metals, and more particularly to an apparatus for atomizing molten slag and recovering valuable metals, which enables molten slag of a blast furnace or a converter or an electric furnace to be atomized and valuable metals to be recovered.
Abstract:
A junction box has a PCB, on which fuses, relays, and a control and communication unit are mounted. The PCB is provided with upper and lower surfaces, on which a first connector and a second connector are respectively positioned. Further, the junction box includes a cover covering the PCB in such a way as to expose the fuses, the first connector, and the second connector. Since the fuses, the relays, and the control and communication unit are mounted on a single board, the junction box reduces manufacturing costs of the board, reduces size and weight of the board, and effectively performs communication with external electronic modules.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a conductive lift pin used in an electrostatic chuck, an electrostatic chuck including same, and a semiconductor manufacturing method using same. Provided in the present invention are a conductive electrostatic chuck lift pin and an electrostatic chuck having the lift pin mounted therein, the lift pin including AlTiC, which has a TiC phase dispersed on an Al2O3 phase, and having electrical resistivity of 2.5x10−5 to 3.5x10−5 Ω·m. The electrostatic chuck lift pin of the present invention can solve the problem of defects induced by static electricity and electric reaction due to contact between the components and insulating ceramic when using existing insulating ceramic, and is conductive and thus can release residual charge between a semiconductor wafer and the electrostatic chuck even without the presence of plasma. Therefore, since the lift pin can be raised immediately after de-chucking, treatment time per wafer sheet is reduced.

Abstract:
A memory system, including a flash memory including multiple memory blocks, and a controller configured to erase each of the memory blocks using multiple steps. The controller stores, for each of the memory blocks, metadata indicating which of the multiple steps have been completed, and erases each of the memory blocks based on the stored metadata.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to an airburst simulation system and method. The airburst simulation system includes a laser emitting unit to emit laser beam to an airburst aiming position, preset above a target hidden behind an obstacle, such that a warhead is airbursted to shoot the target, a laser detecting unit mounted onto the target to detect an arrival of the laser beam above the target, and a determining unit to measure a distance between the airburst aiming position and an arrival position of the laser detected by the laser detecting unit, and determine whether or not the target has been shot based on the distance. This allows for a simulated engagement using an airburst apparatus, with no harm to human bodies by virtue of the use of laser.
Abstract:
Provided are an IC chip and a method of verifying data thereof. The present invention verifies integrity of data by comparing an integrity verifying value generated from data using an integrity verifying value generating algorithm before a write operation for storing data in a storing unit is performed and an integrity verifying value generated from data stored in the storing unit using the integrity verifying value generating algorithm after the write operation is completed. According to the present invention, the present invention can confirm whether data stored in the IC chip is normally stored when manufacturing/issuing the IC chip and whether data stored in the IC chip is normally stored during the IC chip is used.
