Abstract: A semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) structure and a method for forming the SOI structure. The method includes forming a first dielectric layer on a first semiconductor layer. A second semiconductor layer is formed over an etch stop layer. A cleaning solution is provided to a first surface of the first dielectric layer. The first dielectric layer is bonded under the second semiconductor layer in an environment having a substantially low pressure. An index guiding layer may be formed over the second semiconductor layer. A third semiconductor layer is formed over the second semiconductor layer. A distance between a top of the third semiconductor layer and a bottom of the second semiconductor layer varies between a maximum distance and a minimum distance. A planarization process is performed on the third semiconductor layer to reduce the maximum distance.

Abstract: A self-aligning busbar assembly includes a housing, a busbar having a first terminal connecting end, a second terminal connecting end, and a jog portion disposed therebetween, and a front holder coupled to the housing and the busbar. The front holder includes an inner wall defining a busbar receiving aperture to receive at least a portion of the busbar, and at least one flexible tab extending inwardly from the inner wall into the busbar receiving aperture. The at least one flexible tab is configured to bias and center the at least a portion of the busbar within the busbar receiving aperture. At least one clearance is defined in the busbar receiving aperture between the inner wall and the busbar and is configured to enable at least one of the first and second terminal connecting ends to move to account for tolerances and/or variances during installation of the busbar assembly.

Abstract: An interface seal for an electrical connector assembly that includes a housing and a seal retainer defining a seal recess and configured to couple to the housing, is disclosed. The interface seal includes a main body portion configured to substantially surround the housing to create a sealing interface, and an anti-rotation projection coupled to and extending from the main body portion. The anti-rotation projection includes (i) an engagement portion extending in a first direction and (ii) a connecting portion that couples the engagement portion with the main body portion and that extends in a second direction different from the first direction. The anti-rotation projection cooperates with the seal recess to inhibit movement of the interface seal with respect to the housing and seal retainer.

Abstract: A method for communication between near field communication (NFC) devices includes generating a transmission signal, an in-phase local oscillator signal, and a quadrature local oscillator signal from edges of an input clock signal. The method further includes mixing a load modulated signal with the in-phase local oscillator signal to generate an in-phase baseband signal. The method further includes mixing the load modulated signal with the quadrature local oscillator signal to generate a quadrature baseband signal. The method further includes adjusting a phase delay of at least one of the in-phase local oscillator signal or the quadrature local oscillator signal in response to a first signal strength of the in-phase baseband signal and a second signal strength of the quadrature baseband signal.

Abstract: A frequency modulation (FM) transmitter implemented with a delta-sigma modulator and a phase-locked loop (PLL) is described. The delta-sigma modulator receives a modulating signal (e.g., an FM stereo multiplex (MPX) signal) and provides a modulator output signal. The PLL performs frequency modulation based on the modulator output signal and provides an FM signal. The FM transmitter may further include a gain/phase compensation unit and a scaling unit. The compensation unit may compensate the modulating signal for the closed-loop response of the PLL. The scaling unit may scale the amplitude of the modulating signal based on a gain to obtain a target frequency deviation for the FM signal. The PLL may operate in a transmit mode or a receive mode, may perform frequency modulation in the transmit mode, and may provide a local oscillator (LO) signal at a fixed frequency in the receive mode.
