Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide an image recording condition setting apparatus, an image recording condition setting method, and a drive recorder that can always set an optimum recording condition in the drive recorder. In particular, the invention provides an image recording condition setting apparatus, an image recording condition setting method, and a drive recorder, wherein the apparatus includes a receiving unit for receiving vehicle driving condition information from the drive recorder, determining means for determining recording condition setting information based on the received vehicle driving condition information, and a transmitting unit for transmitting the recording condition setting information, determined by the determining means, to the drive recorder.

Abstract: Memory devices having improved TPD characteristics and methods of making the memory devices are provided. The memory devices contain two or more memory cells on a semiconductor substrate and bit line dielectrics between the memory cells. The bit line dielectrics can extend into the semiconductor. The memory cell contains one or more charge storage nodes, a first poly gate, a pair of first bit lines, and a pair of second bit lines. The second bit line can be formed at a higher energy level, a higher concentration of dopants, or a combination thereof compared to an energy level and a concentration of dopants of the first bit line.

Abstract: Memory devices having an increased effective channel length and/or improved TPD characteristics, and methods of making the memory devices are provided. The memory devices contain two or more memory cells on a semiconductor substrate and bit line dielectrics between the memory cells. The memory cell contains a pair of first bit lines and a pair of second bit lines. The first and second bit lines can be formed by an implant process using first and second spacers that have different lateral lengths from each other. The spacers can be used to offset the implants, thereby controlling the lateral lengths of the bit lines.

Abstract: Memory devices having an increased effective channel length and/or improved TPD characteristics, and methods of making the memory devices are provided. The memory devices contain two or more memory cells on a semiconductor substrate and bit line dielectrics between the memory cells. The memory cell contains a charge trapping dielectric stack, a poly gate, a pair of pocket implant regions, and a pair of bit lines. The bit line can be formed by an implant process at a higher energy level and/or a higher concentration of dopants without suffering device short channel roll off issues because spacers at bit line sidewalls constrain the implant in narrower implant regions.

Abstract: Memory devices having improved TPD characteristics and methods of making the memory devices are provided. The memory devices contain two or more memory cells on a semiconductor substrate and bit line openings containing a bit line dielectric between the memory cells. The memory cell contains a charge storage layer and a first poly gate. The bit line opening extends into the semiconductor substrate. By containing the bit line dielectric in the bit line openings that extend into the semiconductor substrate, the memory device can improve the electrical isolation between memory cells, thereby preventing and/or mitigating TPD.
