Abstract:
Disclosed is an electronic device includes a flexible display, a support structure that supports the flexible display and a housing, into which the flexible display and the support structure are inserted. When the support structure is inserted into the housing, the flexible display is inserted into the housing together with the support structure while being wound in a specific direction. When the support structure extends outside the housing, the flexible display is deployed so that the flexible display is substantially flat.
Abstract:
A global shutter image sensor according to an exemplary embodiment of the present inventive concepts includes a semiconductor substrate including a first surface and a second surface, a photo-electric conversion region formed in the semiconductor substrate, a storage diode formed in a vicinity of the photo-electric conversion region in the semiconductor substrate, a drain region formed above the photo-electric conversion region in the semiconductor substrate, a floating diffusion region formed above the storage diode in the semiconductor substrate, an overflow gate transferring first charges from the photo-electric conversion region to the drain region, a storage gate transferring second charges from the photo-electric conversion region to the storage diode, and a transfer gate transferring the second charges from the storage diode to the floating diffusion region. The overflow gate, the photo-electric conversion region, the storage gate, the storage diode, the transfer gate, and the floating diffusion region are formed in a row.
Abstract:
A memory system includes a nonvolatile memory device including a first memory area formed of memory blocks which store n-bit data per cell and a second memory area formed of memory blocks which store m-bit data per cell, where n and m are different integers, and a memory controller configured to control the nonvolatile memory device. The memory controller is configured to execute a read operation, and to execute a read reclaim operation in which valid data of a target memory block of the second memory area is transferred to one or more memory blocks of the first memory area, the target memory block selected during the read operation. The read reclaim operation is processed as complete when all the valid data of the target memory block is transferred to the one or more memory blocks of the first memory area.
Abstract:
Image sensors and image processing devices including the image sensors are provided. The image sensors may include a semiconductor substrate including a plurality of pixel areas, a photodiode provided in the semiconductor substrate in one of the plurality of pixel areas and a transfer transistor having a transfer gate electrode. A portion of the transfer gate electrode may be in the semiconductor substrate and may extend toward the photodiode. The image sensors may also include a floating diffusion configured to accumulate charges transferred from the photodiode by the transfer transistor, and the floating diffusion may include a first area and a second area disposed on different sides of the transfer gate electrode.
Abstract:
A data storage device according to an exemplary embodiment includes: a non-volatile memory which includes a first region configured to store vendor data and a second region configured to store user data; and a memory controller configured to receive a first command from a host, determine whether there is a first ID of a program, which is allowed to access the first region, in the first command, and decide whether to enter a vendor mode for accessing the first region according to a result of the determination.
