  • Patent number: 7632132
    Abstract: A module connector reliably locks a module such as a camera module, which is accommodated, to prevent the module from falling and make a module connector in lower profile. This module connector has contact pins (120) that electrically connect with the module inside a container (110) in which the camera module is inserted. Retaining members (150) are provided in sides of the container (110), elastically deform when the module is inserted such that claw parts (159), which form the tip parts of arm parts (158) projecting toward the container (110), move to the sides of the container (110), and engage with an engaged part (230) of the camera module accommodated in the container (110). An arm part (158) connects with an upper end part of a second body part (156) bent from the tip of a first body part (154), which projects toward the container (110) in the side of the container (110), in the direction going away from the container (110) and extends upward.

  • Patent number: 7604925
    Abstract: A production method of a semiconductor device which includes the steps of exposing a resist coated on a substrate of a semiconductor device by projecting a light pattern on the substrate of the semiconductor device, developing the resist exposed by the light pattern to form a wafer pattern with the resist, and etching the substrate on which the wafer pattern with the resist is formed. In the step of exposing the light pattern is formed by illuminating a mask with excimer laser light having an annular shape.

  • Patent number: 7598020
    Abstract: A production method of a semiconductor device which includes the steps of exposing a resist coated on a substrate of a semiconductor device by projecting a light pattern on the substrate of the semiconductor device through an object lens, developing the resist exposed by the light pattern to form a wafer pattern with the resist, and etching the substrate on which the wafer pattern with the resist is formed. In the step of exposing, the light pattern projected on the substrate is formed by excimer laser light which is emitted from an annular shaped light source and which is passed through a mask having a phase shifter.
