Abstract: A method for performing wireless communication in MLO architecture is applicable to an AP MLD connected with a non-AP MLD through multiple links. The multiple links include at least a first link and a second link, the non-AP MLD operates in ML-SMPS mode. The method includes transmitting an initial control frame to the non-AP MLD via the first link, to trigger at least one link of the multiple links to be activated at the non-AP MLD to support a reception with respective negotiated number of spatial streams, receiving a response frame via the first link in response to the transmission of the initial control frame, and initiating frame exchange between the AP MLD and the non-AP MLD via a target link of the at least one link. The target link is selected from the at least one link according to the response frame. The first link is a primary link.

Abstract: Methods of cutting gate structures and fins, and structures formed thereby, are described. In an embodiment, a substrate includes first and second fins and an isolation region. The first and second fins extend longitudinally parallel, with the isolation region disposed therebetween. A gate structure includes a conformal gate dielectric over the first fin and a gate electrode over the conformal gate dielectric. A first insulating fill structure abuts the gate structure and extends vertically from a level of an upper surface of the gate structure to at least a surface of the isolation region. No portion of the conformal gate dielectric extends vertically between the first insulating fill structure and the gate electrode. A second insulating fill structure abuts the first insulating fill structure and an end sidewall of the second fin. The first insulating fill structure is disposed laterally between the gate structure and the second insulating fill structure.

Abstract: An ergonomic mouse has a sliding cap matching the curvature of a normal human palm. The sliding cap may be slid on the top of a hollow body to reach a desired operation position, then fine-tuned and anchored. Thus when the mouse is moved during operation, it can absorb reaction forces to avoid hurting the user's wrist and better meet ergonomic requirements.

Abstract: A structure for fastening a circuit board on a case includes a strut which has one end coupled on the case and other end coupled on the circuit board, and a coupling member which has two distal ends with surfaces not parallel with each other. One distal end is coupled on the circuit board with the distal end surface in parallel with the other end surface of the strut, and the other distal end surface is parallel with a holding section of a fastening element which fastens the coupling member, the circuit board and the strut in this order, to make the circuit board in parallel with a mounting surface, which an electronic device may be held on, of the case. The circuit board is easy to be fastened even if the circuit board is not vertical to the molding direction of the fastening structure. Assembly costs also are lower.

Abstract: A coupling structure for a handheld electronic device and a back cartridge thereof includes a first coupling assembly and a second coupling assembly. The first coupling assembly is located on the handheld electronic device. The second coupling assembly is located on the back cartridge corresponding to the first coupling assembly, and has a coupled position and a stored position. At the coupled position the second coupling assembly is extended outside the back cartridge to couple with the first coupling assembly, to thereby enable the handheld electronic device to couple with the back cartridge. At the stored position, the second coupling assembly is held in the back cartridge to allow the handheld electronic device to be separated from the back cartridge. Hence, the handheld electronic device and the back cartridge can maintain an integrated and self-contained profile.
