Patent number: 11989480Abstract: According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor that may, responsive to a secondary display being detected, cause a window including an option for a user to proceed with a location detection operation of the secondary display to be displayed on a primary display. The processor may also cause an icon to be displayed on the secondary display, track a movement of a cursor from the primary display to the icon displayed on the secondary display, and determine a position of the secondary display with respect to the primary display based on the tracked movement of the cursor. The processor may further store the determined position of the secondary display with respect to the primary display.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2022Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Gary De-Hong Liao, Yilin Song, Michael Paul Erich Von Hippel, Nina Emi Rothenhaus, Sankalp Gupta, Tomas Edward Morris, John Christopher Whytock, Hanna Landauer McLaughlin, Lee Dicks Clark, Fernando Evelio Alvarez, Albert Peter Yih

Patent number: 11984392Abstract: A semiconductor package includes: a carrier having an electrically insulative body and a first contact structure at a first side of the electrically insulative body; and a semiconductor die having a first pad attached to the first contact structure of the carrier, the first pad being at source or emitter potential. The first pad is spaced inward from an edge of the semiconductor die by a first distance. The semiconductor die has an edge termination region between the edge and the first pad. The first contact structure of the carrier is spaced inward from the edge of the semiconductor die by a second distance greater than the first distance such that an electric field that emanates from the edge termination region in a direction of the carrier during normal operation of the semiconductor die does not reach the first contact structure of the carrier. Methods of production are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 2021Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: Infineon Technologies AGInventors: Chee Yang Ng, Stefan Woetzel, Edward Fuergut, Thai Kee Gan, Chee Hong Lee, Jayaganasan Narayanasamy, Ralf Otremba
