  • Publication number: 20130256787
    Abstract: A method for contacting MOS devices. First openings in a photosensitive material are formed over a substrate having a top dielectric in a first die area and a second opening over a gate stack in a second die area having the top dielectric, a hard mask, and a gate electrode. The top dielectric layer is etched to form a semiconductor contact while etching at least a portion the hard mask layer thickness over a gate contact area exposed by the second opening. An inter-layer dielectric (ILD) is deposited. A photosensitive material is patterned to generate a third opening in the photosensitive material over the semiconductor contact and a fourth opening inside the gate contact area. The ILD is etched through to reopen the semiconductor contact while etching through the ILD and residual hard mask if present to provide a gate contact to the gate electrode.

  • Patent number: 8260219
    Abstract: A network communication device includes a processor, an amplifier circuit, a matching circuit including a transmitting route and a coupling route, a storage module, and a detection and control module. The network communication device generate electronic signals, and outputs the electronic signals to a load via the transmitting route after the electronic signals being amplified and matched. Then the network communication device detects output signals and reflection signals of the coupling route to calculate a safety parameter accordingly, compares the calculated safety parameter with one or more safety parameter thresholds, and generates control signals to control the amplifier circuit. The network communication device determines if the load is abnormal according to the control signals and generates load abnormal signals if the load is abnormal.
