  • Publication number: 20240083556
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the technical field of water surface waste treatment, and in particular to a water surface floater collecting ship. The technical problems are: picking up floaters with the cooperation of labors consumes manpower and causes disturbance of water surface, which makes the floaters float further away with water waves, and the odor emitted by the collected floating waste will pollute the environment and affect the salvage efficiency. The technical solution is: a water surface floater collecting ship, comprising a hull, a collecting system, etc.; the left part of the hull is connected with the collecting system used for collecting waste.

  • Publication number: 20220262434
    Abstract: A ReRAM memory array includes ReRAM memory cells and a select circuit having two series-connected select transistors connected in series with a ReRAM device. When ReRAM memory cell(s) are selected for erasing, the bit line coupled to the ReRAM memory cell(s) to be erased is biased at a first voltage potential. The source line coupled to the ReRAM memory cell(s) to be erased is biased at a second voltage potential greater than the first voltage potential, the difference between the first voltage potential and the second voltage potential being sufficient to erase the ReRAM device. The gates of the series-connected select transistors coupled to the ReRAM memory cell(s) to be erased are supplied with positive voltage pulses. The gates of the series-connected select transistors coupled to the ReRAM memory cell(s) unselected for erasing are supplied with a voltage potential insufficient to turn them on.

  • Patent number: 11355187
    Abstract: A method for erasing a ReRAM memory cell that includes a ReRAM device having a select circuit with two series-connected select transistors. The method includes determining if the ReRAM cell is selected for erasing. If the ReRAM cell is selected for erasing, the bit line node is biased at a first voltage potential, the source line node is biased at a second voltage potential greater than the first voltage potential and the gates of the series-connected select transistors are supplied with positive voltage pulses. The difference between the first voltage potential and the second voltage potential is sufficient to erase the ReRAM device in the ReRAM cell. If the ReRAM cell is unselected for erasing, the gate of the one of the series-connected select transistors having its drain connected to an electrode of the ReRAM device is supplied with a voltage potential insufficient to turn it on.

  • Patent number: 9368623
    Abstract: A high-voltage transistor includes an active region including a diffused region of a first conductivity type defined by inner edges of a border of shallow trench isolation. A gate having side edges and end edges is disposed over the active region. Spaced apart source and drain regions of a second conductivity type opposite the first conductivity type are disposed in the active region outwardly with respect to the side edges of the gate. Lightly-doped regions of the second conductivity type more lightly-doped than the source and drain regions surround the source and drain regions and extend inwardly between the source and drain regions towards the gate to define a channel, and outwardly towards all of the inner edges of the shallow trench isolation. Outer edges of the lightly-doped region from at least the drain region are spaced apart from the inner edges of the shallow trench isolation.
