Abstract: A power supply unit supplies power to a load, and the power supply unit includes a power factor corrector, a DC conversion module, and an isolated conversion module. The power factor corrector is plugged into a first main circuit board and converts an AC power into a DC power. The DC conversion module is plugged into the first main circuit board and converts the DC power into a main power. The isolated conversion module includes a bus capacitor, the bus capacitor is coupled to the DC conversion module through a first power copper bar, and coupled to the power factor corrector through a second power copper bar. The first power copper bar and the second power copper bar are arranged on a side opposite to the first main circuit board, and are arranged in parallel with the first main circuit board.

Abstract: A method includes forming a first conductive feature over a semiconductor substrate, forming an ILD layer over the first conductive feature, patterning the ILD layer to form a trench, and forming a conductive layer over the patterned ILD layer to fill the trench. The method further includes polishing the conductive layer to form a via contact configured to interconnect the first conductive feature with a second conductive feature, where polishing the conductive layer exposes a top surface of the ILD layer, polishing the exposed top surface of the ILD layer, such that a top portion of the via contact protrudes from the exposed top surface of the ILD layer, and forming the second conductive feature over the via contact, such that the top portion of the via contact extends into the second conductive feature.

Abstract: A transmission device for suppressing the glass-fiber effect includes a circuit board and a transmission line. The circuit board includes a plurality of glass fibers, so as to define a fiber pitch. The transmission line is disposed on the circuit board. The transmission line includes a plurality of non-parallel segments. Each of the non-parallel segments of the transmission line has an offset distance with respect to a reference line. The offset distance is longer than or equal to a half of the fiber pitch.

Abstract: A device includes: a stack of semiconductor nanostructures; a gate structure wrapping around the semiconductor nanostructures, the gate structure extending in a first direction; a source/drain region abutting the gate structure and the stack in a second direction transverse the first direction; a contact structure on the source/drain region; a backside conductive trace under the stack, the backside conductive trace extending in the second direction; a first through via that extends vertically from the contact structure to a top surface of the backside dielectric layer; and a gate isolation structure that abuts the first through via in the second direction.

Abstract: An infant care apparatus includes a piezoelectric sensor and an infrared array sensor. The piezoelectric sensor senses a respiration rate and a heart rate of an infant. The infrared array sensor senses a body temperature and an occupancy state of the infant in a non-contact manner. The abovementioned infant care apparatus can assist in determining an abnormality of the respiration rate and the heart rate of the infant based on the occupancy state of the infant output by the infrared array sensor, so as to reduce a false alarm rate.

Abstract: An optical system includes a light source array, a dichroic mirror set, a light converting device and a light guide pipe. The light source array is used for emitting a first homogeneous light. The dichroic mirror set is disposed in a light path of the first homogeneous light and used for reflecting a part of the first homogeneous light to the light guide pipe, transmitting the remaining part of the first homogeneous light to the converting device. The light converting device is disposed in the transmitting light path of the dichroic mirror and used for transferring the first homogeneous light into a second, third homogeneous light. The dichroic mirror is further used for reflecting the second, third homogeneous light to the light guide pipe. The light guide pipe is used for mixing the first, second and third homogeneous light to obtain a white light.

Abstract: A projector includes an interface unit, a control unit, and a projection unit. The interface unit includes a plurality of ports, each of which connects to a corresponding connector to allow the projector to connect to a corresponding signal source. The control unit identifies format of information read from the corresponding signal sources via the interface unit and identifies which port is connected. The projection unit projects a menu image, the menu image comprising a plurality of icons, each associated with a corresponding port and configured for indicating connection states of the corresponding ports.

Abstract: A projection device, having a number of light emitting diodes and an integration rod, includes a rotatable wheel. The rotatable wheel is averagely divided into different color sectors. The same color light emitting diodes are populated in the corresponding color sectors and emit the corresponding color light. The rotatable wheel and the integration rod are positioned in the path of the color light.
