  • Publication number: 20230317827
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a process of tunning sidewall profiles of gate openings prior to filling a replacement gate electrode layer therein to improve etching rate uniformity and stability during a subsequent gate electrode etch back process. Particularly, the profile sacrificial gate electrode is adjusted to be more straight profile rather than a bowl type profile, which reduces the seam void created in the replacement gate electrode during the replacement gate process. In some embodiments, tuning the profile of gate opening further includes performing a pullback etching process of the sidewall spacers prior to depositing gate dielectric layer and work function metal layer to achieve a wider opening for metal gate filling in the replacement gate process.

  • Publication number: 20230318430
    Abstract: Several current sensing techniques are described that may be used to obtain an accurate current signal, which may help to achieve the best performance with a trans-inductor voltage regulator (TLVR) topology. The techniques may have the coupling effect from the secondary side included, so the current sensing signal is accurate for the regulation and other functions related to the current signal. The current sensing techniques may have more accurate gain and phase information in the middle frequency and high frequency ranges. The coupling effect from the secondary side may be well represented in the current sensing signal. The advantages of TLVR topology may be enhanced with accurate current information.
