Abstract: A method for programming a phase-change-memory device of a differential type comprises, in a first programming mode, supplying, during a first time interval, a same first programming current, of a type chosen between a SET current and a RESET current, to all the direct and complementary memory cells that are to be programmed with said first programming current; and, in a second programming mode, supplying, during a second time interval, a same second programming current, of the other type chosen between a SET current and a RESET current, to all the direct and complementary memory cells that are to be programmed with said second programming current, thus completing, in just two time steps, writing of a logic word in the memory device.

Abstract: In an embodiment, the column decoder of a PCM device is divided into two portions that can be governed independently of one another, and the driving signals of the two portions are configured so as to guarantee comparable capacitive loads at the two inputs of a sense amplifier in both of the operations of single-ended reading and double-ended reading. In particular, during single-ended reading, the sense amplifier has a first input that receives a capacitive load corresponding to the direct memory cell selected, and a second input that receives a capacitive load associated to a non-selected complementary memory cell.

Abstract: For manufacturing an optical microelectromechanical device, a first wafer of semiconductor material having a first surface and a second surface is machined to form a suspended mirror structure, a fixed structure surrounding the suspended mirror structure, elastic supporting elements which extend between the fixed structure and the suspended mirror structure, and an actuation structure coupled to the suspended mirror structure. A second wafer is machined separately to form a chamber delimited by a bottom wall having a through opening. The second wafer is bonded to the first surface of the first wafer in such a way that the chamber overlies the actuation structure and the through opening is aligned to the suspended mirror structure. Furthermore, a third wafer is bonded to the second surface of the first wafer to form a composite wafer device. The composite wafer device is then diced to form an optical microelectromechanical device.

Abstract: A semiconductor substrate such as a semiconductor wafer includes a cutting line having a length. The semiconductor substrate is cut along the line by first selectively applying laser beam ablation energy to the semiconductor substrate a certain locations along the cutting line and then blade sawing along cutting line. The semiconductor substrate thus includes one or more ablated regions as well as one or more unablated regions at the cutting line.

Abstract: First and second n-channel FETs are connected in series between first and second terminals with an intermediate switching node. First and second driver circuits drive gates of the first and second n-channel FETs, respectively, in response to drive signals. The first driver circuit does not implement slew-rate control. A first resistor and capacitor are connected in series between the output of the first driver circuit and an intermediate node. A first electronic switch is connected between the intermediate node and the first terminal. A second electronic switch is connected between the intermediate node and the gate terminal of the first n-channel FET. A second resistor and a third electronic switch are connected in series between the gate terminal of the first n-channel FET and the switching node. A control circuit generates the drive signals and a first, second and third control signal for the first, second and third electronic switch.

Abstract: A MOS transistor, in particular a vertical channel transistor, includes a semiconductor body housing a body region, a source region, a drain electrode and gate electrodes. The gate electrodes extend in corresponding recesses which are symmetrical with respect to an axis of symmetry of the semiconductor body. The transistor also has spacers which are also symmetrical with respect to the axis of symmetry. A source electrode extends in electrical contact with the source region at a surface portion of the semiconductor body surrounded by the spacers and is in particular adjacent to the spacers. During manufacture the spacers are used to form in an auto-aligning way the source electrode which is symmetrical with respect to the axis of symmetry and equidistant from the gate electrodes.

Abstract: A first RF-to-DC circuit receives a radiofrequency signal and produces a first converted signal delivered to an energy storage circuit. A second RF-to-DC circuit, which is a down-scaled replica of the first RF-to-DC circuit, produces a second converted signal from the radiofrequency signal that is indicative of an open-circuit voltage of the first RF-to-DC circuit. The first RF-to-DC section includes N sub-stages, with a sub-set of sub-stages being selectively activatable. A window comparison of the second converted signal generates a first signal and a second signal indicative of whether the second converted signal is within a range of values proportional to a voltage reference signal. The sub-set of sub-stages is selectively deactivated, respectively activated, when the performed window comparison has a first result, respectively, a second result.

A gate region, of conductive material, is arranged above and in contact with the semiconductor body. A first insulating layer extends over the semiconductor body, laterally to the conductive gate region. A second insulating layer extends over the first insulating layer and the gate region. A first field plate region, of conductive material, extends between the first and the second insulating layers, laterally spaced from the conductive gate region along a first direction. A second field plate region, of conductive material, extends over the second insulating layer, and the second field plate region overlies and is vertically aligned with the first field plate region.
