  • Patent number: 8564629
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display device capable of performing image signal writing and display with a field-sequential method in parallel, with a simple pixel configuration. In the liquid crystal display device, image signal writing to pixels in a row can be followed by image signal writing to pixels in a row which is separate from the row by at least two rows. Therefore, in the liquid crystal display device, image signal writing and lighting of the backlights are not performed per pixel portion but can be performed per unit region of the pixel portion. Accordingly, image signal writing and lighting of the backlight can be performed in parallel in the liquid crystal display device.

  • Publication number: 20130275003
    Abstract: [Object] The present invention provides a suspension control apparatus that allows miniaturization of a solenoid valve. [Solution] When a controller is started up by a power source controller (a power source unit), the controller switches a control current from 0 ampere to a maximum current value I6 at the same time as the startup. After that, the control shifts to normal control. As a result, even if a hysteresis of a damping force characteristic is large relative to the control current, it is possible to promptly move a solenoid valve to a position to be used in the normal control.

  • Publication number: 20130270614
    Abstract: Systems and methods are presented for controlling formation of a silicide region. A selective etch layer is utilized to control formation of a trench opening, and further can be utilized to open up a trench to facilitate correct exposure of an active Si region to subsequently form a silicide. Issues regarding over-dimension, under-dimension, and misalignment of a trench are addressed. The selective etch material is chosen to facilitate control of the trench formation and also to enable removal of the selective etch layer without affecting any adjacent structures/material. The selective etch layer can be an oxide, for example aluminum oxide, Al2O3. The selective etch layer can be utilized to prevent formation of silicide in a channel beneath a raised source/drain.
