Abstract: Systems and methods to achieve an auto-focus camera with a movable lens barrel having a mechanic shock detection capability combined with a re-initialization of the camera module have been disclosed. This re-initialization may comprise moving the lens barrel displaced by the shock to a home position. In a preferred embodiment of the invention a motor with integrated position detection has been used. In a normal operation the position detection feature senses the actual position of the lens, e.g. during auto-focusing of the lens barrel, and provides this position information to a control unit which is controlling the movement of the lens barrel to a target position. In case of a mechanic shock, e.g. if the camera module drops to ground, the control unit detects an extreme rapid displacement of the lens barrel and initiates a re-initialization of the camera module.
Abstract: A method is described to fabricate a MOSFET device with increased threshold voltage stability. After the pad oxide and pad nitride are deposited on the silicon substrate and shallow trenches are patterned and the pad nitride removed. As+ or P+ species are then implanted using low energy ions of approximately 5 keV into the pad oxide. Conventional As+ or P+ implant follows the shallow implant to form the n-wells. With this procedure of forming a sacrificial shallow implantation oxide layer, surface dopant concentration variation at pad oxide:silicon substrate interface is minimized; and threshold voltage stability variation of the device is significantly decreased.
