    摘要: A semiconductor integrated circuit device includes first to k-th decoders, and a MOS transistor switch group having a hierarchical structure of first to k-th hierarchies and operated on a second voltage level. An n-bit input signal of a first voltage level is divided into k groups (k is an integral number equal to or larger than 2) and input to the first to k-th decoders. The first to k-th decoders decode the input signal, shift the decode results to the second voltage level higher than the first voltage level and output the same. The MOS transistor switch group is supplied with 2n analog inputs at the first hierarchy, selects one of the 2n analog inputs and outputs the selected analog input from the k-th hierarchy.

    摘要: A semiconductor integrated circuit is fabricated in a substrate having a semiconductor layer and an underlying insulator layer. The fabrication process includes a step of locally oxidizing the semiconductor layer to form a field oxide, during which step the semiconductor layer is protected by a nitride film. The nitride film has both openings to permit local oxidization in the integrated circuit area, and an opening defining an alignment mark adjacent to the circuit area. The alignment mark may be formed either in the semiconductor and insulator layers, or in a part of the nitride film left after the nitride film is removed from the circuit area. In either case, the edge height of the alignment mark is not limited by the thickness of the semiconductor layer. Using the nitride layer to define both the alignment mark and the field oxide reduces the necessary number of fabrication steps.

    摘要: A forward direction-only path (first substrate transport path) is formed for transporting substrates in a forward direction to pass the substrates on to an exposing apparatus. A separate, substrate transport path (second substrate transport path) is formed exclusively for post-exposure bake (PEB). Substrate transport along each path is carried out independently of substrate transport along the other. A fourth main transport mechanism is interposed as a predetermined substrate transport mechanism between transfer points consisting of a buffer acting as a temporary storage module for temporarily storing the substrates and a post-exposure bake (PEB) unit corresponding to a predetermined treating unit. This arrangement forms the path for transporting the substrates between the buffer and the PEB unit, to allow PEB treatment of the substrates to be performed smoothly. Similarly, the substrates are transported smoothly to the buffer.

    摘要: A liquid crystal display device significantly reduces power consumption and causes no signal delay when a liquid crystal panel performs an inversion-type drive. The liquid crystal display device comprises a digital controller, a level shift circuit, a digital-to-analog (D/A) converter, a liquid crystal panel, and a plurality of capacitors. In the D/A converter, a charging control circuit is provided corresponding to each capacitor. The charging control circuit comprises a switch, a diode and an inverter, the switch and the diode being coupled in parallel. The switch is turned on and off in response to a switching signal from the digital controller. The switch is changed to a turning- on state during a blanking period after one horizontal displaying. Upon turning-on of the switch, the capacitors are charged. Digital pixel data outputted from the digital controller undergoes a level changing depending on a voltage across the electrodes of the capacitors, according to a charge conservation.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a phase shifting mask for use in a photolithographic process of forming a wiring pattern. The phase shifting mask comprises a transparent base plate (11), shading layers (12) formed selectively on the transparent base plate (11), and two kinds of phase shifting layers (13a, 13b) formed on transparent portions of the transparent base plate between the adjacent shading layers, respectively. The phase difference of the two kinds of phase shifting layers (13a, 13b) relative to the transparent base plate (11) is 90.degree., and the phase difference between the phase shifting layers is 180.degree.. The transfer of an unnecessary pattern in the shifter edge portion can be obviated by using the shading layers having a phase difference of 90.degree. relative to the transparent base plate.
