  • Publication number: 20240153558
    Abstract: A memory device includes a main array comprising main memory cells; a redundancy array comprising redundancy memory cells; and write circuitry configured to perform a first programming operation on a main memory cell, to detect whether a current of the main memory cell exceeds a predefined current threshold during the first programming operation, and to disable a second programming operation for a redundancy memory cell if the current of the main memory cell exceeds the predefined current threshold during the first programming operation.

  • Publication number: 20240154015
    Abstract: A method includes forming a first fin and a second fin protruding from a frontside of a substrate, forming a gate stack over the first and second fins, forming a dielectric feature dividing the gate stack into a first segment engaging the first fin and a second segment engaging the second fin, and growing a first epitaxial feature on the first fin and a second epitaxial feature on the second fin. The dielectric feature is disposed between the first and second epitaxial features. The method also includes performing an etching process on a backside of the substrate to form a backside trench, and forming a backside via in the backside trench. The backside trench exposes the dielectric feature and the first and second epitaxial features. The backside via straddles the dielectric feature and is in electrical connection with the first and second epitaxial features.

  • Patent number: 6659760
    Abstract: A plastic injection molding machine includes a rod having an end engaged with a slide member located beside the lower mold, and a position block connected to the upper mold. A pin is movably inserted in two respective inclined holes in the position block and the slide member so that the threaded section on the tip end of the rod is moved into the cavity with the movement of the slide member. The rod is located between two side members each have a threaded semi-circular recess. Another threaded section has the same threads of the thread section on the tip end of the rod is engaged with the two threaded semi-circular recesses so that the rod is rotatably withdrawn from the cavity smoothly when the rod is rotated by a motor.
