Abstract: A method of forming a semiconductor device includes providing a substrate including a circuit region and a well strap region, forming a mandrel extending from the circuit region to the well strap region, depositing mandrel spacers on sidewalls of the mandrel, removing the mandrel in the circuit region, while the mandrel in the well strap region remains intact, patterning the substrate with the mandrel spacers in the circuit region and the mandrel in the well strap region as an etch mask, thereby forming at least a first fin in the circuit region and a second fin in the well strap region, and epitaxially growing a first epitaxial feature over the first fin in the circuit region and a second epitaxial feature over the second fin in the well strap region. A width of the second fin is larger than a width of the first fin.

Abstract: A programming system includes a mobile device and a programmer, in which the programmer includes a wireless communication module, a control module, and a communication module. A programming method of the programming system includes: storing a program code in the mobile device; establishing wireless communication between the control module and the mobile device via the wireless communication module to obtain the program code of the mobile device; and, sending the program code from the control module to a tire pressure detector via the communication module to program the program code whereby it is convenient for the user to operate and the manufacturing cost of the programmer can be reduced.

Abstract: A wireless programming method for tire pressure detectors includes the following steps. A wireless programmer sends an activating command. The tire pressure detectors send a responding message. The wireless programmer receives the responding messages and records identification codes in the received responding messages. The wireless programmer sends a stop-responding command to make the tire pressure detector with the identification codes, which is recorded in the wireless programmer, enter a stop-responding mode. The wireless programmer sends the activating command again. The tire pressure detectors not in the stop-responding mode send the responding messages. The wireless programmer receives the responding message and records the identification code in the received responding message. The wireless programmer sends a code to the tire pressure detectors corresponding to the recorded identification code to program the code.

Abstract: A method for monitoring a tire condition includes the following steps: sense a rotational speed of a tire of a moving vehicle via at least one monitoring device of a wireless monitoring system disposed in the vehicle; when the sensed rotational speed reaches a predetermined rotational speed range, obtain a condition of the rotating tire through at least one monitoring device to generate first condition data; compare the first condition data with a plurality of pavement feature data to obtain the corresponding pavement feature data; process with the obtained pavement feature data and the first condition data to filter a pavement feature out of the first condition data, generating second condition data; determine whether the condition of the tire is abnormal based on the second condition data; and send out a warning message when the condition of the tire is determined as being abnormal.

Abstract: A method for monitoring a tire condition includes the following steps: sense a rotational speed of a tire of a moving vehicle; when the sensed rotational speed reaches a predetermined rotational speed range, obtain a condition of the rotating tire through at least one sensor to generate a piece of first condition data; compare the first condition data with a plurality of pieces of pavement feature data to obtain the corresponding one; process with the obtained piece of pavement feature data and the first condition data to filter a pavement feature out of the first condition data, generating a piece of second condition data; determine whether the condition of the tire is abnormal based on the second condition data; and send out a warning message when the condition of the tire is determined as abnormal Whereby, the road security is improved.
