  • Patent number: 7419838
    Abstract: A method for one-way coupling an input signal to an integrated circuit on a semiconductor chip with the integrated circuit electrically isolated from the input signal comprises forming a MOS isolation coupler on the semiconductor chip by a CMOS process. The MOS isolation coupler comprises an inductor coil for generating a magnetic field in response to an input signal applied to terminals thereof. A MAGFET having a split drain formed by respective drain portions is formed on the semiconductor chip below the inductor coil, so that a current difference is induced between the drain currents in the drain portions which is proportional to the strength of the magnetic field generated by the inductor coil resulting from the input signal. The MAGFET is formed prior to the inductor coil. An oxide isolating layer is provided over the MAGFET, and the inductor coil is formed on the oxide layer.

  • Publication number: 20060041464
    Abstract: A system and method is provided for developing an analytic fraud model to predict likelihood that a transaction is fraudulent comprising a first database storing a log of credit transaction information comprising requests for credit reports and including application information used by a credit requestor. A second database stores deleted credit inquiries. The deleted credit inquiries comprise fraudulent requests for credit reports. A programmed processing system is operatively associated with the first and second databases and operates in accordance with a sampling program.
