Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method and system for presetting an input mode for an input box, wherein the method comprises: in response to an input box being to receive an input, making a query for an input mode corresponding to the input box recorded in an input method; and presetting the input mode found through the query as the input mode for the input box. With the disclosed method and system, when a user needs to input information in an input box in accessing an application or the internet, the input method can automatically preset a desired input mode for the input box according to the use history of the input box, thus improving the user's experience.
Abstract:
The present application discloses new approaches to integrated power. Two new classes of structures each provide an integrated phase leg, in a process which can easily be integrated with low-voltage and/or peripheral circuits: in one class of disclosed structures, a lateral PMOS device is combined with an NMOS device which has predominantly vertical current flow. In another class of embodiments, a predominantly vertical n-channel device is used for the low-side switch, in combination with a lateral n-channel device. In either case, the common output node is preferably brought out at a backside contact. This device structure is advantageously used to construct complete power supply and/or voltage conversions circuits on a single chip (perhaps connected to external passive reactances).
Abstract:
A MOSFET switch which has a low surface electric field at an edge termination area, and also has increased breakdown voltage. The MOSFET switch has a new edge termination structure employing an N-P-N sandwich structure. The MOSFET switch also has a polysilicon field plate configuration operative to enhance any spreading of any depletion layer located at an edge of a main PN junction of the N-P-N sandwich structure.
Abstract:
Improved MOSFET structures and processes, where multiple polysilicon embedded regions are introduced into the n+ source contact area. A top poly Field Plate is used to shield the electric field from penetrating into the channel, so that a very short channel can be used without jeopardizing the device drain-source leakage current. A bottom poly Field Plate is used to modulate the electric field distribution in the drift region such that a more uniform field distribution can be obtained.
Abstract:
Improved highly reliable power RFP structures and fabrication and operation processes. The structure includes plurality of localized dopant concentrated zones beneath the trenches of RFPs, either floating or extending and merging with the body layer of the MOSFET or connecting with the source layer through a region of vertical doped region. This local dopant zone decreases the minority carrier injection efficiency of the body diode of the device and alters the electric field distribution during the body diode reverse recovery.
Abstract:
A vertical-current-flow device includes a trench which includes an insulated gate and which extends down into first-conductivity-type semiconductor material. A phosphosilicate glass layer is positioned above the insulated gate and a polysilicon layer is positioned above the polysilicate glass layer. Source and body diffusions of opposite conductivity types are positioned adjacent to a sidewall of the trench. A drift region is positioned to receive majority carriers which have been injected by the source, and which have passed through the body diffusion. A drain region is positioned to receive majority carriers which have passed through the drift region. The gate is capacitively coupled to control inversion of a portion of the body region. As an alternative, a dielectric layer may be used in place of the doped glass where permanent charge is positioned in the dielectric layer.
Abstract:
An electrostatic liquid-ejection actuation mechanism includes a membrane, a frame, and one or more deformable beams. The frame has two sides and a number of cross members that are non-parallel to the two sides. The two sides and the cross members define one or more areas individually corresponding to one or more liquid chambers. The deformable beams are disposed between the membrane and the frame. The deformable beams individually correspond to the liquid chambers, and define a number of slits. Each slit is adjacent to one of the two sides of the frame. The deformable beams have a width that is less than a width of the liquid chambers, due at least to the slits.
Abstract:
A high-voltage termination structure includes a peripheral voltage-spreading network. One or more trench structures are connected at least partly in series between first and second power supply voltages. The trench structures include first and second current-limiting structures connected in series with a semiconductor material, and also includes permanent charge in a trench-wall dielectric. The current-limiting structures in the trench structures are jointly connected in a series-parallel ladder configuration. The current-limiting structures, in combination with the semiconductor material, provide a voltage distribution between the core portion and the edge portion.
Abstract:
A manufacturing process and design structure for a super self-aligned trench power MOSFET. A plurality of super self-aligned trenches of different depths are formed into the body layer and epitaxial layers, preferably by using a multilayer stack of dielectric material etched to form spacers. Respective trenches contain gate conductors, body-contact conductors, and preferably a third trench containing a recessed field plate. This results in a MOSFET structure having high cell density and low gate charges and gate-drain charges.
