  • High current male and female power connector assembly
    Patent number: 6309231
    Abstract: Disclosed is a male and female power connector assembly in which the male contact is provided with a biased plunger which prevents insertion of a finger into contact with an electrically live component housed within the male connector. The female connector also includes a housing which prevents or induces the likelihood of an object coming into contact with an electrically live component on the female connector. The male and female power connector assembly of the present invention also includes a unique alignment and locking mechanism including a slot having a recessed area on the male for engagement with a tab in the female connector. Also a front flange in the male connector can have at least one slot for engagement with a pin in a pin connector in the female connector.

  • Split-gate memory device and method for accessing the same
    Patent number: 5969383
    Abstract: An EEPROM device includes a split-gate FET (10) having a source (36), a drain (22), a select gate (16) adjacent the drain (22), and a control gate (32) adjacent the source (36). When programming the split-gate FET (10), electrons are accelerated in a portion of a channel region (38) between the select gate (16) and the control gate (32), and then injected into a nitride layer (24) of an ONO stack (25) underlying the control gate (32). The split-gate FET (10) is erased by injecting holes from the channel region (38) into the charge nitride layer (24). When reading data from the split-gate FET (10), a reading voltage is applied to the drain (22) adjacent the select gate (16). Data is then read from the split-gate FET (10) by sensing a current flowing in a bit line coupled to the drain (22).
