  • Patent number: 12093629
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, a corresponding layout diagram being stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium, the layout diagram including layout cells, the method including generating the layout diagram including: for a candidate cell amongst the layout cells in the layout diagram, avoiding a discrete calculation of a corresponding parasitic capacitance (PC) description including, within a database which stores predefined cells and corresponding parasitic capacitance (PC) descriptions thereof, searching the database for one amongst the predefined cells (matching predefined cell) that is a substantial match to the candidate cell; and, when a substantial match is found, assigning the PC description of the matching predefined cell to the candidate cell.

  • Patent number: 9281558
    Abstract: A high isolation electromagnetic transmitter and receiver is revealed. An isolation portion, a first antenna body and a second antenna body are extended from and formed over a grounding portion. The isolation portion is extended to and formed between the first antenna body and the second antenna body. A parasitic element corresponding to the isolation portion is disposed between the first antenna body and the second antenna body. The isolation portion is T-shaped. The parasitic element is reverse T-shaped and arranged over the grounding portion. The structure is simple and able to be applied to the design of planar printed antennas. The production is easy and the cost is reduced. The volume is minimized to be used in various mini wireless mobile communication devices. No interference occurs even that the first and the second antennas are close due to good isolation.

  • Patent number: 9118117
    Abstract: A receiving and transmitting device for wireless transceivers is revealed. The device has been developed from a high isolation MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) antenna used for 2.45 GHz WLAN operation. The antenna is a dual-fed coupled monopole MIMO antenna that includes a dielectric substrate and a MIMO antenna. A grounding portion with two signal ends for feeding signals is disposed on the dielectric substrate. A T-shaped metal plate is extended from the grounding portion and located between two signal ends. A C-shaped parasitic element is arranged at the metal plate and there is a certain distance therebetween so as to adjust the isolation. The antenna is symmetrical for improving isolation and is suitable for USB dongles or small-sized wireless mobile devices.

  • Publication number: 20130179603
    Abstract: An apparatus and a method of identifying between a USB and an MHL typed devices are disclosed. One embodiment discloses an apparatus for identifying whether the Universal Serial Bus (USB) or the Mobile High-Definition Link (MHL) typed device is attached to a connector by detecting a pull-down resistor when the USB device is actually attached to the connector. A resistor-detecting module and a switch are connected in series to form a conductive path to detect if there is a pull-down resistor connected from a data pin to a voltage-reference pin of the connector when the switch is turned on. Once the device is identified, an internal data path can be established according to the device type.

  • Publication number: 20050134595
    Abstract: A computer graphics display system contains a graphics processing unit. A graphics processing unit extracts the display information needed for executing graphics display from system memory via the north bridge according to the graphics display command from the CPU and then processes the display information. The display information is stored directly in the system memory so that the graphics processing unit can directly access the system memory without the use of a graphics buffer. This lowers the system cost.
