    摘要: A method and apparatus for updating motion vector memories used for prediction of motion vectors in a video compression coding/decoding method and system. For a frame composed of N macroblocks in the horizontal direction, only (2N+1) motion vector memories are used to store all motion vectors necessary to motion prediction, and only three memories per macroblock are used to update motion vectors, thereby reducing the size of a circuitry, the amount of computation and the amount of power consumed.

    摘要: A transistor and a method for fabricating the same that involves a forming a device isolation oxide film semiconductor substrate, forming an opening in the device isolation oxide to open the substrate and define an active region, the junction between the oxide and the substrate having a rounded profile, and then forming a complex gate electrode structure in the active region. The preferred gate electrode structure comprises a gate oxide and a stacked conductor structure having a first and a second conductor, an optional hard mask layer formed on the second conductor, an oxide layer formed on the first conductor, and nitride spacers formed on the oxide layer on the sidewalls of the gate electrode. On either side of the gate electrode structure lightly doped drain (LDD) regions and source drain regions are then formed in the active region of the semiconductor substrate. The wafer is then planarized with one or more insulating films to condition the wafer for subsequent processing.

    摘要: A ferroelectric memory device, e.g., nonvolatile, has an effective layout by eliminating a separate cell plate line. The ferroelectric memory device includes first and second split word lines formed over first and second active regions of a semiconductor substrate, and the first and second active regions are isolated from each other. Source and drain regions are formed in the first active region on both sides of the first split word line and the second active region on both sides of the second split word line. A conductive barrier layer, a first capacitor electrode and a ferroelectric layer are sequentially formed on the first and second split word lines. Two second capacitor electrodes with one connected to one of the source and drain regions of the second active region is formed over the first split word line. The other one is connected to one of the source and drain regions of the first active region and is formed over the second split word line. First and second bit lines are respectively connected to the other one of the source and drain regions of the first active region, and the other one of the source and drain regions of the second active region.
