Abstract: A method and apparatus for the decapsulation of integrated circuit packages. The apparatus includes a support member, the support member having an open region and an adjustable device coupled to the support member. The adjustable device can be adapted to hold a BGA package such that a surface region of the BGA package is spatially disposed to face a decapsulation source and a plurality of balls on the BGA package remain free from contact from the decapsulation source and free from contact from a thermal source capable of causing damage to one or more of the balls. The decapsulation source is provided to subject a portion of the surface region of the BGA package for removal of the portion of the BGA package.

Abstract: A method for preparing TEM sample, comprising the following steps: providing a sample with two pits and a failure region between the two pits, the failure region comprising a semiconductor device; milling the first surface of the failure region, till the cross section of the semiconductor device is exposed; etching the first surface of the failure region; cleaning the sample; milling the second surface of the failure region, till the failure region can be passed by electron beam. A sample can be prepared for a high resolution TEM through above steps. When the sample is observed, it is easy to distinguish the lightly doped drain, source/drain regions from the silicon substrate and observe the pattern and defects in the lightly doped drain, source/drain regions clearly; in addition, it is easy to distinguish the BPSG from the non-doped silicon dioxide in the failure region.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a multifunctional device, which is particularly applicable to a twin magnet loop (called TML) transducer with both vibrating and sound functions. The present invention integrates an inner and an outer magnet loop of TML into one device, which can be used as a vibrator and a speaker. A disc-shaped pole core, a flange bowl-shaped magnetic transfer, an annular pole piece, a cylindrical magnet and an annular magnet constitute the inner and outer magnetic loops; wherein the disc-shaped pole core is placed on the cylindrical magnet and centered with the flange bowl-shaped magnetic transfer; the annular magnet and the annular pole piece are overlaid together under the ring of the flange bowl-shaped magnetic transfer; the entire of the TML assembly is connected with a housing base via a resilient plate.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and a set of trimming accessories for trimming rubber plate used in an ion implanter. The rubber plate is suitable for use in an ion implanter, wherein the ion implanter has a platform with multiple primary holes and multiple primary notches. In specific embodiments, the set of trimming accessories includes trimming equipment such as a knife or preferably a laser; a template with secondary holes corresponding to primary holes and secondary notches corresponding to primary notches. The template is used as a guide to form a plurality of tertiary holes in the rubber plate corresponding to the plurality of secondary holes of the template and to form a plurality of tertiary notches in the rubber plate corresponding to the plurality of secondary notches of the template.

Abstract: A novel electromagnetic acoustic device with twin magnetic loops is disclosed. The electro-acoustic device of the present invention comprises a magnetic transfer, a magnetic column (2), an annular magnet (4), an annular pole piece (5) and a pole piece (3). The magnetic transfer comprises a first, “cup-shaped”, round housing (11, 12) and its flange (13), which is the second annular. The first round housing (11, 12), the magnetic column (2), the pole piece (3) form the first magnetic loop. On the other side of the round housing, the housing flange, the annular magnet (4) and the annular pole piece (5) form the second magnetic loop.

Abstract: A communication network and process for communicating thereon is disclosed which can support multimedia communications. Communication channels are formulated using a two step process. In a first step, channel types and fixed attributes thereof are defined. When needed, one or more channels of the predefined types are subsequently allocated in a second step wherein user-definable parameters are specified. The user-definable parameters and fixed attributes of each allocated channel control the scheduling of transmission and receipt of information on each channel.
