Patent number: 7487488Abstract: A mechanism is disclosed for assigning repeaters to signal paths in an integrated circuit design. The mechanism involves reserving, in a first metal layer of the integrated circuit design, metal tracks for routing signals. Access points to a plurality of repeaters are reserved in a second metal layer of the integrated circuit design. Each access point is associated with a particular repeater. The design may have other layers between the second metal layer and a region reserved for the repeaters. The number of repeaters may be based on the number of metal tracks that are available to route signals through the first region. Signal paths are assigned routes that comprise at least a portion of one or more of the metal tracks. A route from signal paths requiring a repeater to access points to a particular repeater is determined. Thus, the signal paths are assigned to a repeater.Type: GrantFiled: October 6, 2006Date of Patent: February 3, 2009Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Dajen Huang, Yi Wu, Arjun Dutt, Yu L.

Patent number: 5905656Abstract: The present invention discloses a system and method for controlling the dispensing of a fine liquid for coating or other applications, by detecting the volume of liquid dispensed when coating a single workpiece and sending a signal to a controller to disable the dispensing when an insufficient volume of liquid is being dispensed. In a preferred embodiment, the fine liquid is spin-on-glass (SOG) used in semiconductor processing machinery during wafer fabrication and the the SOG volume dispensed when coating a semiconductor wafer is measured using a weight measurement instrument, e.g., an electronic scale capable of 0.1 gm. accuracy, which outputs a weight signal that is input, along with a dispenser condition signal from the SOG dispensing machine, to a programmable logic controller (PLC). A set point is selected to produce a desired weight of dispensed liquid, e.g., 1.7 gms. when 2 ccs. are desired, and is programmed into the PLC.Type: GrantFiled: April 18, 1997Date of Patent: May 18, 1999Assignee: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd.Inventors: Wen Y.
