摘要:
A design structure for an impedance matcher that automatically matches impedance between a driver and a receiver. The design structure for an impedance matcher includes a phase-locked loop (PLL) circuit that locks onto a data signal provided by the driver. The impedance matcher also includes tunable impedance matching circuitry responsive to one or more voltage-controlled oscillator control signals within the PLL circuit so as to generate an output signal that is impedance matched with the receiver.
摘要:
A semiconductor device and a method for forming the semiconductor device, include forming a mandrel, forming spacer wordline conductors on sidewalls of the mandrel, separating, by using a trim mask, adjacent spacer wordline conductors, and providing a contact area to contact alternating ones of pairs of the spacer wordline conductors.
摘要:
A semiconductor memory device including at least three different types of memory cell structures. The types include an NVRAM cell structure, an FERAM cell structure, a DRAM cell structure, and an SRAM cell structure. The cell structures are disposed on the same substrate.
摘要:
An arrangement of pillar shaped p-i-n diodes having a high aspect ration are formed on a semiconductor substrate. Each device is formed by an intrinsic or lightly doped region (i-region) positioned between a P+ region and an N+ region at each end of the pillar. The arrangement of pillar p-i-n diodes is embedded in an optical transparent medium. For a given surface area, more light energy is absorbed by the pillar arrangement of p-i-n diodes than by conventional planar p-i-n diodes. The pillar p-i-n diodes are preferably configured in an array formation to enable photons reflected from one pillar p-i-n diode to be captured and absorbed by another p-i-n diode adjacent to the first one, thereby optimizing the efficiency of energy conversion.
摘要:
In a first aspect, a first method is provided for semiconductor device manufacturing. The first method includes the steps of (1) providing a substrate; and (2) forming a first silicon-on-insulator (SOI) region having a first crystal orientation, a second SOI region having a second crystal orientation and a third SOI region having a third crystal orientation on the substrate. The first, second and third SOI regions are coplanar. Numerous other aspects are provided.
