  • Patent number: 8098707
    Abstract: An ultra-wideband (UWB) receiver utilizing an Xn(n>1) device as a signal detector for short pulse(s), impulse(s) or ultra-wideband signal(s). The transmitted signal comes to antenna and passes through a band pass filter (BPF). The signal is fed into an Xn device. The output signal from the Xn device is fed into integration/dump block. The output from the integration/dump block is fed into decision block.

  • Patent number: 7385452
    Abstract: A VCO is based on a capacitively emitter degenerated topology which uses a cross-coupled MOS pair as the degeneration cell. The cross-coupled MOS pair contributes additional conductance and results in a higher maximum attainable oscillation frequency and better negative resistance characteristics as compared to the other topologies at high frequencies. These properties of the disclosed VCO combined with small effective capacitance enable low-power low-noise high-frequency VCO implementations.

  • Patent number: 6403406
    Abstract: A double level gate layer with an undercut lower gate layer can be formed by using the etching rate difference between the upper gate layer and the lower gate layer in a polycrystalline Si type TFT LCD that has P-channel TFTs and N-channel TFTs. An LDD structure can be easily formed by using an upper gate layer as ion implant mask during the N-type ion implantation. LDD size is decided by the skew size between the upper gate layer and the lower gate layer. Furthermore, a photolithography step necessary for masking the ion implantation can be skipped.

  • Publication number: 20010048502
    Abstract: A sealant pattern is interposed between an upper substrate having a common electrode and a lower substrate having a display area and driving circuits, and surrounds the display area. A liquid crystal layer is formed between the two substrates and inside the display area. Since the liquid crystal layer is not interposed between the driving circuits and the common electrode, a parasitic capacitance generated between bus lines of the driving circuits and the common electrode can be reduced. Moreover, it is possible to form an additional sealant pattern surrounding the driving circuits and inject a material having a lower dielectric constant than the liquid crystal into a region sealed off by the two sealant patterns.

  • Patent number: 6300987
    Abstract: A plurality of gate lines transmits scanning signals are formed on a substrate and a plurality of storage electrode lines are formed in parallel to the gate lines. The storage electrode lines and the gate lines are alternately arranged. A plurality of data lines transmitting image signals intersect the gate lines and the storage electrode lines with being insulated therefrom and a plurality of pixel electrodes are formed. The pixel electrode, which is connected to the thin film transistor which is turned on or off by the nth gate line 110, overlaps the nth and the (n−1)th storage electrode lines 210 which are respectively placed between the nth and the (n−1)th gate lines and between the (n−1)th and the (n 2)th gate lines, and the (n−1)th gate line 110. Therefore, abnormal electric field near the edges of the pixel electrodes is covered by the storage electrode lines and the gate lines.
