  • Patent number: 11916487
    Abstract: An asymmetric half-bridge converter is provided. The asymmetric half-bridge converter includes a switch circuit, a resonance tank, a current sensor, and a controller. The current sensor senses a waveform of a resonance current flowing through the resonance tank to generate a sensing result. The controller determines the sensing result. When the sensing result indicates that an ending current value of a primary resonance waveform of the resonance current is greater than a predetermined value, the controller performs a first switching operation on the switch circuit. When the sensing result indicates that the ending current value of the primary resonance waveform is less than or equal to the predetermined value, the controller performs a second switching operation on the switch circuit.

  • Publication number: 20220379433
    Abstract: Provided is a dressing device for a carrier. The dressing device comprises a dresser, a swing arm, a base and at least one damper. A first end and a second end of the swing arm are coupled to the dresser and the base, respectively, and the at least one damper is disposed inside the swing arm. Any axial vibration of the dresser or the swing arm during dressing for the carrier can be compensated or attenuated by the damper in an active manner properly, so as to make the surface of the carrier flatter and more uniform, which not only improves a removal rate of material and a polishing result of the surface in the subsequent chemical mechanical planarization process, but also prolongs the service life of the carrier. The present disclosure further relates to a polishing system for dressing the carrier by using the said dressing device.
