Publication number: 20240145379Abstract: Methods and semiconductor devices are provided. A method includes determining a location of a polyimide opening (PIO) corresponding to an under-bump metallization (UBM) feature in a die. The die includes a substrate and an interconnect structure over the substrate. The method also includes determining a location of a stacked via structure in the interconnect structure based on the location of the PIO. The method further includes forming, in the interconnect structure, the stacked via structure comprising at most three stacked contact vias at the location of the PIO.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 23, 2023Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Yen-Kun Lai, Wei-Hsiang Tu, Ching-Ho Cheng, Cheng-Nan Lin, Chiang-Jui Chu, Chien Hao Hsu, Kuo-Chin Chang, Mirng-Ji Lii

Publication number: 20240106104Abstract: An electronic device includes a device body and an antenna module disposed in the device body and including a conductive structure and a coaxial cable including a core wire, a shielding layer wrapping the core wire, and an outer jacket wrapping the shielding layer. The conductive structure includes a structure body and a slot formed on the structure body and penetrating the structure body in a thickness direction of the structure body. A section of the shielding layer extends from the outer jacket and is connected to the structure body. A physical portion of the structure body and the section of the shielding layer are respectively located on two opposite sides of the slot in a width direction of the slot. A section of the core wire extends from the section of the shielding layer and overlaps the slot and the physical portion in the thickness direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 8, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Applicant: COMPAL ELECTRONICS, INC.Inventors: Hung-Yu Yeh, Shih-Chia Liu, Yen-Hao Yu, Li-Chun Lee, Chih-Heng Lin, Jui-Hung Lai

Patent number: 11935757Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a first layer of a first planarizing material over a patterned surface of a substrate, forming a second layer of a second planarizing material over the first planarizing layer, crosslinking a portion of the first planarizing material and a portion of the second planarizing material, and removing a portion of the second planarizing material that is not crosslinked. In an embodiment, the method further includes forming a third layer of a third planarizing material over the second planarizing material after removing the portion of the second planarizing material that is not crosslinked. The third planarizing material can include a bottom anti-reflective coating or a spin-on carbon, and an acid or an acid generator. The first planarizing material can include a spin-on carbon, and an acid, a thermal acid generator or a photoacid generator.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 2023Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: TAIWAN SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING COMPANY, LTD.Inventors: Yen-Hao Chen, Wei-Han Lai, Ching-Yu Chang, Chin-Hsiang Lin

Patent number: 11923886Abstract: An antenna device and a method for configuring the same are provided. The antenna device includes a grounding metal, a grounding part, a radiating part, a feeding part, a proximity sensor, and a sensing metal. The radiating part is electrically connected to the grounding metal through the grounding part. The feeding part is coupled to the grounding metal through a feeding point. The sensing metal is electrically connected to the proximity sensor. The sensing metal is separated from the radiating part at a distance. The distance is less than or equal to one thousandth of a wavelength corresponding to an operating frequency of the antenna device.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: COMPAL ELECTRONICS, INC.Inventors: Jhih-Ciang Chen, Shih-Chia Liu, Yen-Hao Yu, Li-Chun Lee, Yan-Ming Lin, Jui-Hung Lai

Patent number: 8376850Abstract: A game controller includes a housing, a number of press sensors and touch sensors, and a main circuit embedded in the housing powered by a battery. The main circuit includes a collecting module, a comparing module and a controlling module. The press sensors detects pressure from the housing and outputting a number of pressure signals. The touch sensors detects a plurality of touch signals. The collecting module collects and combines the pressure signals and the touch signals into a first positioning signal and a second positioning signal correspondingly. The comparing module predetermines a number of preset signal values and a number of preset pitches correspondingly and compares the first and second positioning signals with the preset signal values. The controlling module triggers one of the preset pitches when the first positioning signal and the second positioning signal are equal to the preset signal values.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2009Date of Patent: February 19, 2013Assignee: Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd.Inventors: Chen-Ter Lin, Yen-Hao Lai
