摘要： A filter, in particular, a finite impulse response (FIR) filter having a variable data input and output rate is disclosed. The FIR filter includes a first-in first-out (FIFO) architectural buffer, an address generator for circularly generating respective addresses for FIFO of data items and providing the addresses to the buffer, a filter for performing filtering on data items having different rates, which are input from the buffer, and outputting one or more data, and a controller for controlling address generation of the address generator and controlling transfer paths of data items for filtering of the filter. It is possible to variably control the input and output rate of filtering data by the FIR filter.

摘要： A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes defining a first voltage region, a second voltage region, and a third voltage region on a substrate. The first, second, and third voltage regions are configured to handle first, second, and third voltage levels, respectively, that are different from each other. A nitride layer overlying the first, second, and third voltage regions are formed. An oxide layer overlying the nitride layer is formed. The oxide layer is patterned to expose a portion of the nitride layer overlying the first voltage region. The exposed portion of the nitride layer is removed using a wet etch process. A first gate oxide layer overlying the first voltage region is formed. Portions of the oxide layer and the nitride layer overlying the second and third voltage regions are removed. Impurities are selectively implanted into the third voltage region while preventing the impurities from being provided in the second voltage region. A second gate oxide overlying the second voltage region and a third gate oxide overlying the third voltage region are formed simultaneously. The second gate oxide is thicker than the third gate oxide.

摘要： A method for making a semiconductor device having a first active region and a second active region includes providing first and second isolation structures defining the first active region on a substrate. The first active region uses a first operational voltage, and the second active region uses a second operational voltage that is different from the first voltage. A nitride layer overlying the first and second active regions is formed. An oxide layer overlying the nitride layer is formed. A first portion of the oxide layer overlying the first active region is removed to expose a first portion of the nitride layer. The exposed first portion of the nitride layer is removed using a wet etch method while leaving a second portion of the nitride layer that is overlying the second active region intact. Thereafter, a first gate oxide having a first thickness is formed on the first active region, the first gate oxide having a first edge facing the first isolation structure and a second edge facing the second isolation structure. The first edge is separated from the first isolation structure by a first distance. The second edge is separated from the second isolation structure by a second distance. Thereafter, a second gate oxide having a second thickness is formed on the second active region, the second thickness being different than the first thickness.
