摘要:
Embodiments contemplate one or more techniques for packet filtering. One or more embodiments may apply specific routing and/or forwarding rules on some or each packet when a device has one or more, or multiple, interfaces. Contemplated filtering techniques may be implemented in a module and/or without modifying an IP stack. The contemplated packet filtering techniques may apply to a terminal in uplink and/or downlink as well as to any network node. An incoming packet table may be created using 5-tuple, 6-tuple, and/or tags, among other mechanisms, to support incoming and/or outgoing packet filtering.
摘要:
A low noise (1/f) junction field effect transistor (JFET) is disclosed, wherein multiple implants push a conduction path of the transistor away from the surface of a layer upon which the transistor is formed. In this manner, current flow in the conduction path is less likely to be disturbed by defects that may exist at the surface of the layer, thereby mitigating (1/f) noise.

A semiconductor memory device and a method for performing a memory operation in the semiconductor memory device are provided. The semiconductor memory device includes a plurality of predetermined memory arrays, a bitline decoder, and a controller. The controller provides the memory operation signal to the bitline decoder and, after precharging bitlines of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays, performs the memory operation on selected memory cells in the one or more of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays in accordance with the memory operation signal. The bitline decoder includes a plurality of sector select transistors and determines selected ones of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays and selected rows and unselected rows within the selected ones of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays in response to the memory operation signal. The bitline decoder also precharges the bitlines of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays to a first voltage potential then shuts off the sector select transistors of unselected ones of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays and the unselected rows of the selected ones of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays while maintaining the sector select transistors of the selected rows of the selected ones of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays at the first voltage potential prior to the controller performing the memory operation.
摘要:
A method for reducing the drain resistance of a drain-extended MOS transistor in a semiconductor wafer, while maintaining a high transistor breakdown voltage. The method provides a first well (502) of a first conductivity type, operable as the extension of the transistor drain (501) of the first conductivity type; portions of the well are covered by a first insulator (503) having a first thickness. A second well (504) of the opposite conductivity type is intended to contain the transistor source (506) of the first conductivity type; portions of the second well are covered by a second insulator (507) thinner than the first insulator. The first and second wells form a junction (505) that terminates at the second insulator (530a, 530b). The method deposits a photoresist layer (510) over the wafer, which is patterned by opening a window (510a) that extends from the drain to the junction termination. Next, ions (540) of the first conductivity type are implanted through the window into the first well; these said ions have an energy to limit the penetration depth (541) to the first insulator thickness, and a dose to create a well region (560) of high doping concentration adjacent to the junction termination (530a).
摘要:
A drain-extended MOS transistor in a semiconductor wafer (300) of a first conductivity type comprises a first well (315) of the first conductivity type, operable as the extension of the transistor drain (305) of the first conductivity type, and covered by a first insulator (312) having a first thickness, and further a second well (302) of the opposite conductivity type, intended to contain the transistor source (304) of the first conductivity type, and covered by a second insulator (311) thinner than said first insulator (312). First and second wells form a junction (330) that terminates (320, 321) at the second insulator. The first well has a region (360) in the proximity of the junction termination, which has a higher doping concentration than the remainder of the first well and extends not deeper than the first insulator thickness. Region (360) of higher doping concentration reduces the transistor drain resistance so that the drain current is increased to approximately twice the value it had without the higher doping concentration, while the transistor breakdown voltage remains determined by the (low) doping concentration of the remainder of first well (315).
