摘要:
Methods and structures provide an electrostatic discharge (ESD) indicator including an electric field sensitive material configured to undergo a specific color change in response to an electric field. An exposure of the structure to an ESD can be visually determined via the specific color change of the ESD indicator.

Methods for making, and structures so made for producing integrated circuit (IC) chip packages without forming micro solder balls. In one embodiment, a method may include placing a solid grid made from an organic material between the IC chip and the substrate. The grid provides a physical barrier between each of a plurality of Controlled Collapse Chip Connections, and thereby prevents the formation of micro solder balls between them, thus improving chip performance and reliability.
摘要:
A rectangular-shaped controlled collapse chip connection (C4) is described. In one embodiment, there is a semiconductor chip package that comprises a semiconductor chip package substrate and a semiconductor chip having a plurality of rectangular-shaped C4 contacts attached thereto that connect the semiconductor chip to the semiconductor chip package substrate. The plurality of rectangular-shaped C4 contacts are arranged along a surface of the semiconductor chip in an orientation that extends radially from a center of the surface of the semiconductor chip.
摘要:
A method of attaching an integrated circuit chip to a module and a resultant structure. The method includes placing a solder bump tape between the chip and the module, the solder bump tape including an array of solder columns embedded in a dielectric sheet; aligning and contacting top surfaces of solder columns with respective chip pads of an array of chip pads of the chip and aligning and contacting bottom surfaces of the solder columns with respective module pads of an array of module pads; and reflowing the solder columns to form solder interconnections between chip pads and respective module pads.

An altered shopping experience can be provided in a retail store. Various devices can be used to provide a stimulus (e.g. a smell or sound) to encourage the customer to purchase a product, to entertain the customer, or to provide information to the customer. Devices can also be provided for creating a forced perspective to give the appearance that an aisle is shorter than it is. Devices can also be provided to automatically identify ingredients in a recipe and identify retail stores that offer the ingredients at the best price, or to accept reservations for particular products in the case of an emergency.

The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for providing a conversational user interface (CUI) which interacts audibly with a customer of a retail location. The CUI can ask questions to or respond to questions from the customer, provide audible information regarding products or services available within the retail location, or otherwise assist the customer as the customer shops at the retail location. The CUI can be provided on virtually any device capable of outputting audio content including portable devices such as mobile phones, smart phones, tablets, gaming devices, and stationary devices such as televisions, monitors, or other display devices.

The present invention relates to advertising in stores through the use of video displays that can present customized advertisements when a customer is recognized as being in proximity to the video display. Video displays can be used in stores to display customizable advertisements of a particular vendor. These advertisements can be selectively modified, personalized, and/or customized for a particular customer when that customer is recognized as being in proximity to the video display. This recognition can use the customer's mobile communication device, such as a cell phone, which can be recognized by the system as being in proximity to the video display. This recognition can also read information from a user's identification card, such as a loyalty card, in proximity to the video display. Customized content can be moved from one display to another as the customer moves through a store.
摘要:
A method for cosmetically restoring a stainless steel surface. The stainless steel surface is cleaned and a multi-layered material is applied over the stainless steel surface. The multi-layer material includes a first layer having the appearance of the stainless steel surface, and at least one clear protective layer over the first layer. The first layer has a peel strength of two to four times the peel strength of the clear protective layer and as a result, the clear protective layer is peelable and replaceable while leaving the first layer in place. In one embodiment, the first layer has a peel strength of at least two times the peel strength of the clear protective layer, for example, the first layer may have a peel strength of eleven to fifteen pounds per square inch and the clear protective layer may have a peel strength of four to five pounds per square inch.
摘要:
A method for restoring acid etched glass includes grinding the glass and then applying an acid resistant polyester film over the glass. Grinding may be performed in steps going from course to fine grinding pads, and stopping with a 400 grit pad, leaving a somewhat cloudy appearing surface. The polyester film fills in small irregularities in the cloudy glass surface thus eliminating the need to polish the glass.
