Abstract:
A cable bundling device includes a cable positioning and a wrapping mechanism. The cable positioning mechanism includes a first clamping member and a second clamping member, which are set in a working zone. The first and second clamping members function to respectively clamp ends of a cable. One of the wrapping mechanism and the cable positioning mechanism is selectively rotatable to have the bundling material loaded in the wrapping mechanism wrapped around the cable.
Abstract:
Provided is a circuit board based connector with raised projection section, which is formed by applying substrate bonding and formation techniques to make a connector that features a raised projection section. The circuit substrate has an end that is provided with conductive terminals and an opposite end that is provided with flat cable connection terminals for connection with a flat cable. The circuit substrate has a first surface on which the projection section is formed. A shielding layer covers the projection section and a portion of the first surface. The circuit substrate has a second surface on which a second shielding layer is selectively formed. When the circuit substrate is inserted into an insertion space defined in a connection socket with the conductive terminals thereof, the shielding layer and the projection section of the circuit substrate are put into engagement with and thus retained by the insertion space of the connection socket to thereby fix within the connection socket.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for cell acquisition and downlink synchronization acquisition in an OFDMA wireless communication system are provided. In an SS apparatus in a broadband wireless communication system, a preamble subcarrier acquirer extracts subcarrier values having a preamble code from an FFT signal. A multiplier code-demodulates the subcarrier values by multiplying the subcarrier values by a preamble code. A correlator calculates a plurality of differential correlations in the code-demodulated signal. An IFFT processor IFFT-processes the differential correlations by mapping the differential correlations to subcarriers. A maximum value detector detects a maximum value from the IFFT signal and calculates a timing offset using an IFFT output index having the maximum value.

The method includes acquiring an identifier of a selected item and coordinates of the client device, searching for items relevant to the selected item in a storage system, and refining the search results according to the coordinates of the client device. The method further includes sending corresponding discount information of the search results to the client device if at least one item in the storage system is determined to be relevant to the selected item.
Abstract:
A trace detector is disclosed. The trace detector comprises: a desorption chamber defining a desorption region, and the desorption chamber has a housing. The housing has a sample feeding port for introducing a substance to be detected into the desorption chamber and a gas discharge port for discharging gas entraining the sample from the desorption chamber. A controller is used for controlling the trace detector in such a manner that the sample feeding port and the gas discharge port are in fluid communication with the desorption chamber during pre-concentration process of the trace detector, thereby continuously feeding and collecting the sample. With the above manner, data collecting, processing and analyzing processes may be performed by the trace detector throughout the sample feeding process and the gas pre-concentrating process. The trace detector has an excellent detecting period of time whether the substance to be detected in the gas is in a high concentration state or a low concentration state, and the trace detector can perform continuous sampling for a long time, thereby improving a ratio of the amount of trapped substance to the amount of the substance entrained in the gas to be detected and the amount of the cumulated trapped substance, decreasing the probability of failing to detect the substance, and increasing detection sensitivity. In addition, the detection efficiency of the detector is increased during the gas pre-concentration process.

An etchant for removing a porous low-k dielectric layer on a semiconductor substrate includes a hydrofluoric acid-based solvent, a dilating additive for dilating the pores in the porous low-k dielectric, and a passivating additive that forms a passivation layer at the interface between the low-k dielectric layer and the semiconductor substrate.
Abstract:
A method for forming a shallow trench isolation (STI) structure with a predetermined target height is provided. A substrate having a pad oxide layer formed on the substrate is provided. A nitride-containing layer with a thickness is formed on the pad oxide. A STI structure is formed and extends through the nitride-containing layer, the pad oxide layer, into the substrate. The thickness of the nitride-containing layer is measured to calculate the height of STI structure according to a correlation between the thickness of the nitride-containing layer and the height of STI structure. A thickness of the top portion STI structure to be removed is determined according to the difference between the height of the STI structure and the predetermined target height and is removed in a first etching process. The nitride-containing layer is removed without etching the STI structure or the pad oxide layer in a second etching process.

Disclosed is a flat signal transmission cable with bundling structure, including at least one flexible circuit. The flexible circuit includes a plurality of clustered flat cable components that are formed by slitting in a direction parallel to extension direction of the flexible circuit to impose free and independent flexibility for bending to each clustered flat cable component. At least one bundling structure is formed on a lateral side edge of a predetermined clustered flat cable component of the cluster section of the flexible circuit. The bundling structure forms a fastening section. When the clustered flat cable components of the cluster section of the flexible circuit are stacked to form a bundled structure, the bundling structure bundles the plurality of clustered flat cable components and is secured by being fastened by the fastening section.
