    摘要: An epitaxial semiconductor layer or a stack of a silicon germanium alloy layer and an epitaxial strained silicon layer is formed on outer sidewalls of a porous silicon portion on a substrate. The porous silicon portion and any silicon germanium alloy material are removed and a semitubular epitaxial semiconductor structure in a three-walled configuration is formed. A semitubular field effect transistor comprising inner and outer gate dielectric layers, an inner gate electrode, an outer gate electrode, and source and drain regions is formed on the semitubular epitaxial semiconductor structure. The semitubular field effect transistor may operate as an SOI transistor with a tighter channel control through the inner and outer gate electrodes, or as a memory device storing electrical charges in the body region within the semitubular epitaxial semiconductor structure.

    摘要: A system is provided for detecting a fault in a signal transmission path. In one embodiment, the system can include a variable amplitude signal attenuator which is operable to modify an input signal by variably attenuating a signal voltage swing of the input signal. Desirably, the input signal is attenuated only when transitioning from a high signal voltage level towards a low signal voltage level d variably, such that a larger high-to-low signal voltage swing is attenuated more than a smaller high-to-low signal voltage swing. Desirably, a comparator, which may apply hysteresis to the output signals, may detect a crossing of a reference voltage level by the modified input signal. In this way, when the comparator does not detect an expected crossing of the reference voltage level by the modified input signal, a determination can be made that a fault exists in the signal transmission path.

    摘要: In a method for performing equalization of a communication system, a predetermined signal can be transmitted from a transmitter unit to a receiver unit in a downchannel direction on a transmission line, for example as a pair of differential signals which simultaneously transition in opposite directions on respective signal conductors of the transmission line. At the receiver unit, an eye opening of the signal received from the transmission line can be analyzed to determine equalization information. Equalization information can be transmitted from the receiver unit to the transmitter unit in an upchannel direction on the transmission line and be received at the transmitter unit. Using received equalization information, a transmission characteristic of the transmitter unit can be adjusted.
