Abstract: A method for fabricating a crown-shaped capacitor includes providing a first dielectric layer with a protective pillar formed thereover, including a first conductive layer, a protective layer, and a mask layer. A second conductive layer is formed over a sidewall of the protective pillar. A first capacitance layer and a third conductive layer are formed over the first dielectric layer. A sacrificial layer is formed over the third conductive layer. The sacrificial layer, the third conductive layer, the first capacitance layer, the second conductive layer, and the mask layer above the protective layer are partially removed. The second conductive layer and the third conductive are removed to form a recess adjacent to the first capacitance layer. The protective layer is removed and an opening is formed to expose the first and second conductive layers. A second capacitance layer and a fourth conductive layer are formed in the opening. The sacrificial layer is removed to expose the third conductive layer.

Abstract: An adaptive channel estimator for estimating channel frequency responses when receiving OFDM symbols. The adaptive channel estimator comprises a channel estimator and a channel tracking module. The channel estimator generates one first channel frequency response for each OFDM symbol when operated in the first mode, and generates the channel frequency responses of a second channel frequency response for every N-th OFDM symbols when operated in the second mode, wherein N is a constant integer exceeding one and j is a non-negative integer. The channel tracking module indicates a channel status, and controls the channel estimator to operate in a first mode or a second mode according to the channel status.

Abstract: A semiconductor device wafer 11 is integrated with a supporting board 13 by a double-faced thermally foaming adhesive sheet 12, and this assembly is fixed to a vacuum sucking pedestal 14 under vacuum sucking. A thermally foaming adhesive layer of the adhesive sheet 12 functions as a shock absorber, whereby the wafer 11 hardly cracks during a high-speed grinding operation even if the wafer uses a GaAs substrate which is susceptible to damages. Neither fixing of the wafer 11 using wax nor abrasion using an oil abrasive agent is necessary, so that contamination of wax and oil is prevented and cleaning of the wafer becomes easy. Heating at 130° C. makes the thermally foaming adhesive layer of the adhesive sheet 12 expand so that the wafer 11 is readily separated from the adhesive sheet.

Abstract: An electronic cash register includes a printer system for printing out a transaction data on a receipt bill or a journal paper. A print preset system is provided for selectively printing out the transaction data. A print inhibition preset key develops a print inhibition command which is stored at the last bit of a memory address of the corresponding transaction data. In a normal registration operation mode, a signal detection circuit functions to detect the print inhibition command stored in the last bit. When the print inhibition command is detected, the signal detection circuit functions to preclude the transaction data stored in the corresponding memory address from being transferred to the printer system.
