Abstract:
Semiconductor devices, transistors, and methods of manufacture thereof are disclosed. In one embodiment, a semiconductor device includes a gate dielectric disposed over a workpiece, a gate disposed over the gate dielectric, and a spacer disposed over sidewalls of the gate and the gate dielectric. A source region is disposed proximate the spacer on a first side of the gate, and a drain region is disposed proximate the spacer on a second side of the gate. A metal layer is disposed over the source region and the drain region. The metal layer extends beneath the spacers by about 25% or greater than a width of the spacers.
Abstract:
A valve stem assembly for clamping tire pressure detector has a valve stem and a fastener. The valve stem has an outer section and an inner section. The inner section has a distal end, an outlet hole, a sidewall and a side fixing hole. The distal end has a domical surface. The outlet hole is centrally formed through the domical surface. The side fixing hole is formed in the inner section, is oblique to the outlet hole and communicates with the outlet hole inside the inner section. The fastener corresponds to the outlet hole and the side fixing hole and is selectively and detachably and selectively screwed into the outlet hole or the side fixing hole to hold a tire pressure detector on the valve stem assembly.

Abstract:
The tire pressure detector and valve stem assembly has a valve stem, a wireless pressure detector and a fastener. The valve stem has an outer section and an inner section. The inner section is integrally and coaxially formed on the outer section and has a distal end, an outlet hole, a sidewall and at least one clamping surface. The at least one clamping surface is flat and is tangentially formed on the sidewall. To assemble, only a regular tool such as a clamp or a spanner is necessary to clamp the inner section on the clamping surface when mounting or dismounting the valve stem onto or from a rim.
Abstract:
A mobile communication device comprises a communication unit and a processor. The communication unit initiates a wireless communication channel within a range. The processor coupled to the communication unit automatically determines if a server offering point of interest (POI) data exists in the range. If so, the communication unit initiates a wireless communication channel with the server and downloads the POI data therefrom.
Abstract:
A collision avoidance method for transmitting data from multiple wireless tire condition sensors on a vehicle is executed by each wireless tire condition sensor having a unique ID and multiple different wake-up times. After the sensor is operated to sense data, the method has steps of reading the ID and computing a determination value with the ID and a variable, selecting one of the wake-up times according to the determination result, and after the selected wake-up time expires, transmitting the sensed data. As the selected wake-up times of the sensors differ from one another, data collision at the receiving end arising from data transmission from the sensors can be avoided. Additionally, besides the wake-up time, a time gap between data transmitted twice consecutively from each sensor can be employed to achieve data collision avoidance.
Abstract:
A tire pressure detecting apparatus has a micro-controller, a detecting module and a transceiver. The detecting module is electronically connected to the micro-controller and has a tire pressure detecting unit controlled by the micro-controller to detect a tire pressure inside a tire. The transceiver is electronically connected to the micro-controller, transmits a high frequency signal corresponding to detected characteristic tire parameters from the detecting module to a monitoring system inside a car and receives an external high frequency signal sent from external tire pressure detecting apparatus for the micro-controller, with the micro-controller temporarily delaying sending of the high frequency signal until a waiting time has expired to prevent signal collision between the high frequency signal and the external high frequency signal.
Abstract:
A valve stem with a connecting cap for a tire pressure detector has a body, a connecting cap and a fastener. The body is tubular, is a valve stem applied for truck and has an outer section, an inner section and a fixing nut. The inner section is integrally formed coaxially on the outer section and has an outlet hole being formed thereon. The fixing nut is movably mounted on the outer section. The connecting cap is cylinder, has an outer end and a hole and is detachably mounted on the inner section. The hole is coaxially and longitudinally formed on the connecting cap. The fastener corresponds to the hole and the outlet hole and holds a wireless pressure detector on the outer end of the connecting cap.
Abstract:
A valve stem assembly for tire pressure detecting systems has a valve stem, a connector and a tire pressure detector. The valve stem is conductive. The connector is connected coaxially on the valve stem and is conductive and has a connecting section. The connecting section has an adjusting slot and a domical end. The adjusting slot is formed through the connecting section. The tire pressure detector has at least one tab and at least one conducting washer, the at least one tab protrudes from the tire pressure detector, corresponds to and is adjustably mounted on the connecting section. The at least one tab has a tab slot being formed therethrough. A bolt assembly is mounted in the tab slot and the adjusting slot to hold the tire pressure detector on the connector.
Abstract:
A data processing method for an electronic device is provided. Tree-like data groups have been stored in the electronic device. Each first level data group of the tree data groups has a data group name, and each data group has a plurality of character strings. The data processing method includes the following steps. First, a key word is received, and the first word of the first level data group name of the tree data groups is compared with the key word to display the first level data group name conforming to the key word. Then, a select order is received, and the character string of the first level data group or the second level data group corresponding to the select order is displayed.
