  • Patent number: 7340091
    Abstract: A method for adjusting image contrast has the steps of constructing a luminance histogram of an original image; acquiring an image characteristic of the luminance histogram; judging whether there is a peak wave or deviation of luminance existed in that image characteristic; determining a control point after performing a specific algorithm; deriving a linear equation from the control point and a contrast adjusting value in a Cartesian coordinate system; establishing a gamma table from the correspondent relationship between the horizontal and vertical axis in the coordinate, where the relationship can be calculated according to the linear equation; and finally generating a luminance value from the gamma look-up table using the input luminance of each pixel in the original image.

  • Patent number: 7014342
    Abstract: The light-guiding apparatus has a light tunnel and an ellipsoidal reflector. Light emitted from the light tunnel is reflected and focused on a DMD chip by the ellipsoidal reflector. The light tunnel and a long axis of the ellipsoidal reflector form an angle. The angle and an eccentricity of the ellipsoidal reflector are used to modify the light emitted from the light tunnel. Thus, the light is made to match an incident angle and an effective dimension of a digital micro-mirror device receiving the light.

  • Publication number: 20050206924
    Abstract: A printer driving method for supporting asymmetric graphic resolution first calls a GUI command based on a symmetric graphic resolution structure, deciphers a conversion command to the symmetric graphic resolution to generate 24-bit RGB data, converts the 24-bit RGB data into 32-bit CMYK data, half-tone processes the 32-bit CMYK data, converts CMYK tones into a plurality of one-bit scan lines, and scales each of the one-bit scan lines along the horizontal and vertical directions for the CMYK colors, respectively, in order to generate an asymmetric graphic printing.

  • Publication number: 20050206940
    Abstract: A printer driving method for fast release of control privilege provides a printer processor processing a render module and a filter module in the background. After processing the print command by an application program, a printer driver converts the print command of an output object into a particular meta file using a kind of printer language. Meanwhile, the meta file is submitted to the printer processor in the background and the control privilege is released to the application program at the same time. Thereby, the operation system has enhanced efficiency since the application program will not be suspended during the printing process.

  • Publication number: 20040191572
    Abstract: The present invention comprises a radiation curable composition for in-line printing containing magnetic pigments capable of being magnetized to possess permanent magnetic properties after the composition is cured. The composition is cured by an ionizing radiation source, preferably by UV light or electron beam radiation (UV/EB). The present invention is also directed to an in-line process for printing magnetic images on non-magnetic substrate, comprising: pattern applying the above mentioned radiation curable composition on the substrate opposite to a print side, pre-aligning the magnetic pigment particles (if necessary) of the applied composition, curing the composition by ionizing radiation source (UV/EB), magnetizing the cured composition, then finishing the final piece.

  • Patent number: 6258622
    Abstract: A packaging method for integrated circuit device, which is fit to apply flip chip bonding technique to a leadframe-type chip carrier. The packaging method will not increase the difficulty in assembly of the integrated circuit chip with the leadframe and is able to ensure that the integrated circuit chip be assembled with the lead fingers of the leadframe without false soldering. Also, the packaging method can achieve less inductance of the transmission line and faster transmission speed. In addition, the cost required of the packaging method can be much lower than that for the organic or ceramic base board.

  • Patent number: 6221689
    Abstract: A hole is generated in a substrate. A chip is connected to the substrate by using the chip receiving area of the substrate by using flip chip assembly. The hole is aligned to the chip receiving area of the substrate. Then, a underfill process is performed such that the space between the chip and the substrate will be encapsulated using liquid capsulated material. The liquid capsulated material is injected into the hole from the back side surface of the substrate to the front side surface of the substrate.

  • Patent number: 6048775
    Abstract: A method of planarizing a non-conformal HPDCVD STI oxide isolation using an underlying first nitride layer and an overlying second nitride polish stop layer. The HPDCVD oxide is deposited so that the second nitride polish stop is formed coplanar with the first nitride layer over the center of narrow trenches. Both first and second nitride layers act as polish stops. The invention forms a first nitride layer over the substrate. Wide and narrow trenches are then etched in the substrate. In an important step, a non-conformal HDPCVD oxide layer is formed filling the trenches to a level about 500 .ANG. above the substrate surface. Then a second nitride layer is formed over the non-conformal HDPCVD oxide layer. Next, the structure is chemical-mechanical polished using both the first and nitride layers as polish stops. The second nitride layer and narrow extruded parts of the HDP-CVD oxide layer are removed in a DHF etch. Next, the first nitride layer is removed.
