摘要:
An outer-rotor variable-speed motor, to which single-phase AC power is applied and on which a rotor is provided outside a stator, comprises first and second main windings provided on a stator of the motor to form a plurality of poles, a frequency detector for detecting the frequency of AC power applied to the motor, and a relay for connecting the first and second main windings in series if the detected frequency is 60 Hz and connecting the first and second main windings in parallel if the detected frequency is 50 Hz. The speed of the motor is kept constant even when power at different frequencies is applied, so that it is possible to reduce the manufacturing cost of the motor and reduce the power consumption, and also to reduce electromagnetic noise from the motor.

摘要:
A semiconductor (10) has an active device, such as a transistor, with a directly underlying passive device, such as a capacitor (75, 77, 79), that are connected by a via or conductive region (52) and interconnect (68, 99). The via or conductive region (52) contacts a bottom surface of a diffusion or source region (22) of the transistor and contacts a first (75) of the capacitor electrodes. A laterally positioned vertical via (32, 54, 68) and interconnect (99) contacts a second (79) of the capacitor electrodes. A metal interconnect or conductive material (68) may be used as a power plane that saves circuit area by implementing the power plane underneath the transistor rather than adjacent the transistor.

A method for creating a vertical double-gate transistor design includes providing a planar transistor layout (10) having a gate layer (12) overlying an active layer (14). In one embodiment, a first intermediate layer (18) is defined based on an overlapping region of the gate and active layers, and, using the first intermediate layer, a second intermediate layer (22) is defined which defines a spacing between at least two fins of the vertical double-gate transistor design. The second intermediate layer may also define a length and a width of the at least two fins. One embodiment modifies a dimension of the first intermediate layer prior to defining the second intermediate layer. The method further includes defining a resulting layer (24) based on a non-overlapping region of the second intermediate layer and the active layer. The resulting layer may then be used to create a mask and a semiconductor device (30) corresponding to the vertical double-gate transistor design.

A single-phase induction motor comprises a main winding, an auxiliary winding, and a capacitor, and further comprises a switch for controlling current flow in the motor to change the amount of current flowing through the motor, thereby changing the effective capacitance of the capacitor. This reduces the number of capacitors used in the motor, thereby reducing manufacturing costs, and also attains a high effective capacitance using a low-capacitance capacitor.
