Abstract: An electrical connection wire connects an electrical connection pad of an electrical chip and an electrical connection pad of a carrier substrate to which the electronic chip is mounted. A dielectric layer surrounds at least the bonding wire. The dielectric layer may be a dielectric sheath or a hardened liquid dielectric material. A dielectric material may also cover at least a portion of the electrical chip and carrier substrate. A liquid electrically conductive material is deposited and hardened to form a local conductive shield surrounding the dielectric layer at the bonding wire.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method wherein a state of an integrated circuit between a first state (e.g., CLOSED), allowing a reading access to the first area of fuse-type non-volatile memory by a processor, and a second state (e.g., OPEN), forbidding the reading access to the memory to the processor, is conditioned to a verification, by a finite state machine, of values of a first fuse word of the memory, representative of a number of transitions to the first state and of a second fuse word of the memory, representative of a number of transitions to the second state.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments, methods and systems for utilizing multiple threshold checkers are provided. A range sensor collects measurement data. The range sensor examines the measurement data based on multiple threshold checkers to determine satisfaction of a trigger condition. In response to the satisfaction of the trigger condition, the range sensor provides the measurement data to a host computing device of the range sensor.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a read-out circuit comprising N inputs configured to be connected to N respective outputs of a pixel array of an image sensor, with N being an integer strictly greater than 1; and N analog-to-digital converters organized in K groups, with K being an integer strictly greater than 1 and strictly less than N, and each having a first input coupled to a respective one of the N inputs and a second input. In each group, the second inputs of the analog-to-digital converters of the group are connected together, electrically decoupled from the second inputs of the analog-to-digital converters of the other groups, and configured to receive a first reference signal that is identical for all the analog-to-digital converters of the group.
