Abstract:
A watch phone and a method for handling an incoming call using the watch phone are provided. In the watch phone, a display device includes a touch screen panel and a display, turns off the touch screen panel in a watch mode, turns on the touch screen panel in an idle mode or upon receipt of an incoming call, and displays at least two areas for call connection and call rejection, upon receipt of the incoming call. A single mode selection key selects one of the watch mode and the idle mode. A controller performs control operations so that the touch screen panel is turned off in the watch mode and is turned on in the idle mode or upon receipt of the incoming call, and connects or rejects the incoming call, when the at least two areas for call connection or call rejection, which are displayed upon receipt of the incoming call, are pointed to or dragged to.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate with first and second surfaces facing each other, an etch stop pattern in a trench formed in the first surface of the semiconductor substrate, a first insulating layer on the first surface of the semiconductor substrate, and a through via penetrating the semiconductor substrate and the first insulating layer. The etch stop pattern surrounds a portion of a lateral surface of the through via.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate having a first surface, and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The second surface defines a redistribution trench. The substrate has a via hole extending therethrough. The semiconductor device also includes a through via disposed in the via hole. The through via may include a via hole insulating layer, a barrier layer, sequentially formed on an inner wall of the via hole. The through via may further include a conductive connector adjacent the barrier layer. The semiconductor device additionally includes an insulation layer pattern formed on the second surface of the substrate. The insulation layer pattern defines an opening that exposes a region of a top surface of the through via. The semiconductor devices includes a redistribution layer disposed in the trench and electrically connected to the through via. The insulation layer pattern overlaps a region of the conductive connector.
Abstract:
Semiconductor devices having through-vias and methods for fabricating the same are described. The method may include forming a hole opened toward a top surface of a substrate and partially penetrating the substrate, forming a sacrificial layer partially filling the hole, forming a through-via in the hole partially filled with the sacrificial layer, forming a via-insulating layer between the through-via and the substrate, and exposing the through-via through a bottom surface of the substrate. Forming the sacrificial layer may include forming an insulating flowable layer on the substrate, and constricting the insulating flowable layer to form a solidified flowable layer.

Abstract:
A semiconductor chip includes a semiconductor substrate including a bump region and a non-bump region, a bump on the bump region, and a passivation layer on the bump region and the non-bump region of the semiconductor substrate. No bump is on the non-bump region. A thickness of the passivation layer in the bump region is thicker than a thickness of the passivation layer in the non-bump region. The passivation layer includes a step between the bump region and the non-bump region.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a protective layer, a redistribution pattern, a pad pattern and an insulating polymer layer. The protective layer may be formed on a substrate. The redistribution pattern may be formed on the protective layer. An upper surface of the redistribution may be substantially flat. The pad pattern may be formed directly on the redistribution pattern. An upper surface of the pad pattern may be substantially flat. The insulating polymer layer may be formed on the redistribution pattern and the pad pattern. An upper surface of the insulating polymer layer may be lower than the upper surface of the pad pattern.

Semiconductor devices are provided. The semiconductor devices include a substrate, a first interlayer insulating layer disposed on a front-side of the substrate, a TSV structure passing through the first interlayer insulating layer and the substrate. The TSV structure has a bottom end protruding from a back-side of the substrate, a back-side insulating layer and a back-side passivation layer disposed on the back-side of the substrate, and a bumping pad buried in the back-side insulating layer and the back-side passivation layer and disposed on the bottom end of the TSV structure. The bottom end of the TSV structure protrudes into the back-side bumping pad, and top surfaces of the back-side passivation layer and the back-side bumping pad are coplanar.
Abstract:
The inventive concept provides semiconductor devices having through-vias and methods for fabricating the same. The method may include forming a via-hole opened toward a top surface of a substrate and partially penetrating the substrate, forming a via-insulating layer having a first thickness on a bottom surface of the via-hole and a second thickness smaller than the first thickness on an inner sidewall of the via-hole, forming a through-via in the via-hole which the via-insulating layer is formed in, and recessing a bottom surface of the substrate to expose the through-via. Forming the via-insulating layer may include forming a flowable layer on the substrate, and converting the flowable layer into a first flowable chemical vapor deposition layer having the first thickness on the bottom surface of the via-hole.
