Abstract: A heat sink includes a first adhesive layer, and a heat dissipation layer disposed on the first adhesive layer, and has ventilation ports that extend therethrough including through the first adhesive layer and the heat dissipation layer. The heat sink forms an outermost part of a semiconductor package. Thus, when the heat sink is bonded via its adhesive layer to underlying structure during a manufacturing process, the ventilation ports allow air to pass therethrough. As a result, air is not trapped in the form of bubbles between the heat sink and the underlying structure.

Abstract: A battery-powered RFID tag capable of reducing power consumption and a method of waking up the RFID tag are provided. The battery-powered RFID tag has an activated mode where a general command is detected by decoding a signal received from an RFID tag reader and the general command is executed and a standby mode where the general command is not detected. If a voltage of a continuous wave detected from the signal is equal to or higher than a predetermined voltage or if a wake-up command is detected from the signal, the state of the RFID tag is changed from the standby mode to the activated mode. In addition, the RFID tag is driven by a higher one between the voltage of the continuous wave and a voltage of a built-in battery.
