    摘要: A single bridge magnetic field sensor includes a fluxguide mounted to a surface of a substrate. A bridge unit includes first, second, third, and fourth magnetoresistive elements mounted around the fluxguide and mounted on the surface of the substrate. A switching circuit is electrically connected to two voltage inputs, two grounding terminals, two voltage output terminals, and the four magnetoresistive elements. The switching circuit can proceed with circuit switching according to a magnetic field in each axis direction to be measured, thereby changing electrical connection between the voltage inputs, the grounding terminals, the voltage output terminals, and the four magnetoresistive elements. A measuring unit is electrically connected to the two voltage output terminals and the four magnetoresistive elements. The magnetoresistances of the four magnetoresistive elements measured by the measuring unit and output voltages of the voltage output terminals can be used to obtain a magnetic field measurement result.

    摘要: A method of reducing oxide thickness variations in a STI pattern that includes both a dense trench array and a wide trench is described. A first HDP CVD step with a deposition/sputter (D/S) ratio of 9.5 is used to deposit a dielectric layer with a thickness that is 120 to 130% of the shallow trench depth. An etch back is performed in the same CVD chamber with NF3, SiF4 or NF3 and SiF4 to remove about 40 to 50% of the initial dielectric layer. A second HDP CVD step with a D/S ratio of 16 deposits an additional thickness of dielectric layer to a level that is slightly higher than after the first deposition. The etch back and second deposition form a smoother dielectric layer surface which enables a subsequent planarization step to provide filled STI features with a minimal amount of dishing in wide trenches.
