  • Publication number: 20250157852
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate having one or more inner surfaces defining trenches that define an active pattern of the substrate, the trenches including a first trench and a second trench which have different widths, a device isolation layer on the substrate such that the device isolation layer at least partially fills the trenches, and a word line intersecting the active pattern. The device isolation layer includes a first isolation pattern covering a portion of the second trench, a second isolation pattern on the first isolation pattern and covering a remaining portion of the second trench, and a filling pattern filling the first trench under the word line. A top surface of the second isolation pattern is located at a higher level than a top surface of the filling pattern.

  • Patent number: 9013109
    Abstract: An LED lighting device includes a first luminescent device, a second luminescent device, a first current controller and a second current controller. The first current controller is coupled in parallel with the first luminescent device and configured to operate according to a first current setting, a switch-on voltage and a switch-off voltage. The second current controller is coupled in series to the second luminescent device and configured to operate according to a second current setting. The first current setting, the second current setting, the switch-on voltage and the switch-off voltage are adjusted by setting the mode selection pins of the first and second current controllers.

  • Publication number: 20070115207
    Abstract: A display with a window assembly includes a display unit and a backlight unit on the a first side of the display unit. The backlight unit has a housing unit enclosing. at least a portion of the display unit, exposing a second side of the display unit. The housing unit has at least one protrusion protruding toward the exposed, second side of the display unit. A window member closely adheres to the housing unit and the exposed second side of the display unit, and is coupled with the protrusion. An adhesion unit is arranged between the window member and the housing unit of the backlight to adhere the window member to the housing unit. A case unit has an opening exposing the window member, and has a stepped part on an opening edge of the opening. The stepped part is coupled with the window member.
