    摘要: A capacitive type MEMS switch having a conductor arrangement comprised of first and second RF conductors deposited on a substrate. A bridge member having a central enlarged portion is positioned over the conductor arrangement. In one embodiment, the first RF conductor has an end defining an open area in which is positioned a pull down electrode, with the end of the first RF conductor substantially surrounding the pull down electrode. In another embodiment, two opposed RF conductors, each having ends with first and second branches, define an open area in which a pull down electrode is positioned. A dielectric layer is deposited on the conductor arrangement such that when a pull down voltage is applied to the pull down electrode, the switch impedance is significantly reduced so as to allow signal propagation between the RF conductors.

    摘要: A solid state microwave switch having a plurality of adjacent parallel fingers covered with an oxide layer. One end of a finger is an N+ source region while the other end is an N+ drain region, with a current conducting N region between them. The oxide layer is covered with a gate layer to which a gate signal is applied for control of current between the N+ regions through the N region. The gate layer is highly resistive and has a sheet resistance on the order of millions of ohms per square. The length from the source to drain region is around 2 &mgr;m, and the fingers are spaced with a pitch of around 1 &mgr;m.

    摘要: A memory redundancy circuit is described incorporating a sequential row or column counter associated with a plurality of programmable row or column decoders. The sequential row counter includes a sequence circuit for each programmable row decoder. The sequence circuit and programmable row decoder incorporate fixed and variable threshold transistors such as metal nitride oxide semiconductor (MNOS) transistors. The threshold of the variable threshold transistors are switched in response to address signals and control signals to permit redundancy. A disable circuit is also described to permit removal of the redundancy circuits to permit retest of the other circuits.

    摘要: A segmented retention closure forms a lid that detachably attaches to a container for holding and orienting an item, such as debris, a gardening tool, a baseball, and a string of lights. The closure comprises a panel and a rim. The rim detachably attaches the panel to an opening of the container. The panel substantially covers an opening in the container. The panel has a perimeter region and a central region. Gaps extend from the perimeter region to the central region. The gaps segregates the panel into panel sections, such that each panel section has freedom to bend, laterally flex, and fold in relation to the other sections. An aperture positions concentric to the panel and in communication with the gap. The aperture also has adjustable size and dimension, such that the aperture and the gap can conform to the shape and dimensions of the item for reception.
