  • Publication number: 20240145398
    Abstract: A carrier structure is provided, in which at least one positioning area is defined on a chip-placement area of a package substrate, and at least one alignment portion is disposed on the positioning area. Therefore, the precision of manufacturing the alignment portion is improved by disposing the positioning area on the chip-placement area, such that the carrier structure can provide a better alignment mechanism for the chip placement operation.

  • Patent number: 11968817
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a fin structure. A source/drain region is formed on the fin structure. A first gate structure is disposed over the fin structure. A source/drain contact is disposed over the source/drain region. The source/drain contact has a protruding segment that protrudes at least partially over the first gate structure. The source/drain contact electrically couples together the source/drain region and the first gate structure.

  • Publication number: 20220300252
    Abstract: A sum-of-products calculation apparatus is provided. The sum-of-products calculation apparatus includes an analog-to-digital conversion circuit having an encoder circuit and multiple inverters. The inverters have different threshold voltages, and generate bit signals in response to an analog sum-of-products signal. The encoder circuit encodes the bit signals to generate a digital signal.
