Abstract: A SiC-based MOSFET device and a method for manufacturing the same. Layout design of SiC-based MOSFET devices is optimized, which keeps the JFET region while introducing shielding regions extending into the JFET region, thereby retaining the current flow area of the JFET region to a great extent; each shielding region is connected to the respective well region and extends into the JFET region along a diagonal direction of the cellular structure, effectively shielding high electric field regions when the device is reverse biased, and significantly enhancing the device's reliability. The shielding regions and the well regions are simultaneously formed, requiring no additional process, avoiding increase in complexity and cost of manufacturing. This approach achieves low on-resistance and prevents a decrease in reliability caused by the electric field strength at the bottom of the gate oxide layer exceeding a critical breakdown electric field strength of the gate oxide layer.

Abstract: Systems and methods may provide for inserting one or more preemption instructions while compiling a computer program. The one or more preemption instructions being inserted within a preemption window in the computer program reduces the number of live registers at each preemption instruction position. Further, the preemption instruction instructs which registers are to be saved at a particular program position, typically the registers that are live at that program position. The compiled program may be run in an execution unit. A preemption request may be made to the execution unit and executed at a next available preemption instruction in the program being run in the execution unit.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for the performance of arithmetic operations on large numbers. The addition of large numbers may be parallelized by adding corresponding sections of the numbers in parallel. The multiplication of large numbers may be accomplished by applying a multiplier to a multiplicand after the latter is divided into sections, where the multiplication of the sections is performed in parallel. Products for each section are saved in high and low order vectors, which may then be aligned and added. The comparison of two large numbers may be performed by comparing the numbers, section by section, in parallel. In an embodiment, these processes may be performed in a graphics processing unit (GPU) having multiple cores. In an embodiment, such a GPU may be integrated into a larger die that also incorporates one or more conventional central processing unit (CPU) cores.
