Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a first insulating structure, a second insulating structure, at least one first active semiconductor fin, and at least one second active semiconductor fin. The first insulating structure and the second insulating structure are disposed on the substrate. The first active semiconductor fin is disposed on the substrate and has a protruding portion protruding from the first insulating structure. The second active semiconductor fin is disposed on the substrate and has a protruding portion protruding from the second insulating structure. The protruding portion of the first active semiconductor fin and the protruding portion of the second active semiconductor fin have different heights.

Abstract: An inductor module includes a common inductor core, and first and second inductor windings. Each of the first and second inductor windings has an input end, an output end, and an inductor winding section disposed between the input and output ends. The inductor winding sections are wound on the common inductor core such that the distance between the input end of the first inductor winding and the output end of the second inductor winding is larger than the distance between the output end of the first inductor winding and the input end of the second inductor winding. The output end of the first inductor winding is free of an electrical connection with the input end of the second inductor winding.

Abstract: A power converter module includes a wave generator, a rectifier, and a switch controller. The rectifier includes first and second power switches, and an LC circuit. The switch controller is coupled electrically to the wave generator and control terminals of the first and second power switches, and includes a control coil coupled electromagnetically to an inductor coil of the LC circuit. The switch controller can turn the first power switch on and off periodically in response to a periodic output of the wave generator, and can ensure that the second power switch is turned off when the first power switch is turned on, and that the second power switch is turned on when the first power switch is turned off.
