  • Publication number: 20120274174
    Abstract: A stator includes annular segment assembly portions of phases wound on a stator core in a distributed winding manner. The annular segment assembly portion of each phase includes segment coils that are each formed in a coil shape by connecting conductor segments to each other. An annular protrusion-equipped electrical insulation sheet is inserted between two conductor segments adjacent to each other in the radial direction in a turn portion-side coil end portion that is formed of portions of the segment coils which portions are protruded to an outer side from an end surface of the stator core in the axial direction. The protrusion-equipped electrical insulation sheet has a protrusion that is provided on an end edge of an annular main body portion on the side opposite to the stator core side in the axial direction so that the protrusion is protruded in the axial direction from the end edge.

  • Publication number: 20120100693
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device formed by fractionization and division after a plurality of semiconductor elements are formed over a semiconductor substrate, includes forming a first resist portion over the semiconductor substrate prior to its fractionization. Trenches are formed in areas for dicing the semiconductor substrate. A second resin portion different in composition from the first resin portion is formed in each of the trenches. The semiconductor substrate is diced with respect to the second resin portion with widths each narrower than the trench thereby to bring the semiconductor device into fractionization and division.

  • Patent number: 8053910
    Abstract: To provide a semiconductor substrate whose columnar member for alignment is difficult to fall off and a manufacturing method thereof. An alignment mark 24 (columnar member for alignment) and protection posts 26 surrounding the alignment mark 24 to protect the alignment mark are disposed in an alignment mark forming region 14 of a semiconductor wafer 101 (semiconductor substrate). Each of the protection posts has a diameter (maximum diameter) of, for example, 0.6 ?m. The protection posts 26 are arranged such that the diameter of each of the columnar protection posts 26 is greater than a diameter (for example, 0.2 ?m) of the alignment mark 24. That is, the protection posts 26 are arranged such that the contact area between each of the protection posts 26 and an underlayer thereof (dummy wire layer 22) is greater than the contact area between the alignment mark 24 and an underlayer thereof (dummy wire layer 22).
