Abstract: A low-ohmic chip resistor with high conductivity is fabricated. The chip resistor has an electrode of a base metal or base-metal alloy. The base-metal or base-metal-alloy electrode and a resistor layer are fabricated through thick-film printing with sintering at a low temperature in the air. Therein, a thick-film paste made of a cheap low-reduction-potential metal (such as aluminum (Al) or nickel (Ni)) is formed through screen-printing and sintering. Then, the layer of the cheap low-reduction-potential metal is used as a sacrificial layer to be immersed in a metal solution having a high reduction potential. Therein, a wet chemical alternation reaction is processed for obtaining a metal electrode having the high reduction potential. Or, the sacrificial layer may be immersed in a mixed solution of several different metal having high reduction potential to process wet chemical alternation reaction for obtaining an alloy of metal mixed with different composition.

Abstract: A piezoelectric energy harvesting apparatus includes a housing and a piezoelectric module disposed in the housing. The piezoelectric module includes a piezoelectric wafer unit and a clamp unit clamping the piezoelectric wafer unit. A resilient member is connected between the clamp unit and an inner wall of the housing to transmit an oscillation movement to the clamp unit, which in turn causes oscillation of the piezoelectric wafer unit for generating an electric power. An impact unit extends movably into the housing and is capable of pushing the clamp unit against the resilient member when being subjected to an ambient natural force such that the resilient member generates the oscillation movement.

Abstract: A method is provided to make a nano-silver paste. An organic acid is used as a protective agent. Silver nitrate is used as a source of silver ions to reduce silver nanoparticles on a surface protected by the organic acid. The particle size of the silver nanoparticle is 45 nanometers. In the other hand, a silver precursor of organic metal is synthesized. The organic metal is cracked at 200 celsius degrees (° C.) to fill pores left during sintering. After mixing the silver nanoparticle, the silver precursor and the solvent, the nano-silver paste is obtained. After being heated at 250° C. for 30 minutes, the nano-silver paste has a resistance of (3.09±0.61)×10?5 ?·cm. By being heated at 250° C. and applied with a pressure of 10 MPa to be hot-pressed for 30 minutes for joining copper to copper, the nano-silver paste obtains a bonding strength reaching 36 MPa.

Abstract: A distortion compensation method for a class-D audio amplifier has the steps of connecting a compensation circuit to the class-D audio amplifier; providing a feed-forward signal from the compensation circuit to the loop filter, wherein the feed-forward signal contains replicate high-frequency components replicated from original high-frequency components of the class-D audio amplifier; and adding the feed-forward signal to those of the class-D audio amplifier. By adding the feed-forward signal, PWM-intermodulated distortion resulted from the high-frequency components is reduced. The class-D audio amplifier still maintains loop stability without affecting its phase margin.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for buffering and obtaining resources as well as a resource buffering system are disclosed. The method includes: obtaining an access popularity value of a resource from a database at intervals of a first preset time, and obtaining load values of cache servers from the database if determining that the access popularity value reaches a preset first threshold; and determining a duplication cache server for duplicating the resource according to the access popularity value and the load values, and notifying the duplication cache server to duplicate the resource from a cache server that stores the resource and buffer the resource. The method overcome the problems in the prior art, namely, the same resource is buffered in only one cache server and the relatively idle cache servers are unable to share loads with busy cache servers. The method improves extensibility and working efficiency of the buffering system.

Abstract: An electronic device having a scratchpad memory and a management method are provided. A recording circuit records multiple counter values which correspond to entries in a Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB). A virtual address is matched with a first entry. If a cache miss occurs, the recording circuit updates a first counter value corresponding to the first entry, and determines if the first counter value meets a threshold criterion. If the first counter value meets the threshold criterion, the recording circuit transmits an interrupts signal to a processing unit, and the processing unit moves data into the scratchpad memory. If the first counter value does not meet the threshold criterion, the data is moved into a cache.
