  • Patent number: 10903204
    Abstract: A lateral transient voltage suppressor device is provided, comprising a doped substrate, a lateral clamping structure disposed on the doped substrate, a buried doped layer disposed between the doped substrate and the lateral clamping structure for isolation, at least one diode module, and at least one trench arranged in the doped substrate, having a depth not less than that of the buried doped layer, and being disposed between the lateral clamping structure and the at least one diode module for electrical isolation. The doped substrate and the buried doped layer have opposite conductivity types such that the doped substrate is electrically floating.

    Abstract: A ticket authentication method and a ticket authentication device are provided. The ticket authentication method includes the following steps. A first electronic device outputs an e-ticket. A second electronic device acquires the e-ticket. The second electronic device outputs a visible light verification code. The first electronic device acquires the visible light verification code and generates a composite code according to a certification data and the verification code. The second electronic device acquires the visible light composite code, and determines whether the composite code matches the certification data and the verification code. When the composite code matches the certification data and the verification code, the second electronic determines that the authentication of the e-ticket is successful.
