Publication number: 20110197168Abstract: Various embodiments of the invention provide techniques to ensure a layout for an integrated circuit is split-able. In a method embodiment, a layout is generated in a customer site having a layout library as inputs wherein the library provides exemplary layouts that have been verified to be spit-able and that can be used and layouts that can cause conflicts to avoid. A real-time odd cycle checker is also provided in which the checker identifies in real time conflict areas and odd cycles as they arise during layout generation. To reduce memory usage layouts of various devices may be separated so that each individual layout or a small number of layouts, rather than a large layout for the whole application circuit, can be checked against conflicts. Once the layout is ready at the customer site, it is sent to the foundry site to be decomposed into two masks and taped-out. Other embodiments are also disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 9, 2010Publication date: August 11, 2011Applicant: TAIWAN SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING COMPANY, LTD.Inventors: Pi-Tsung Chen, Ming-Hui Chih, Ken-Hsien Hsieh, Wei-Long Wang, Wen-Chun Huang, Ru-Gun Liu, Tsai-Sheng Gau, Wen-Ju Yang, Gwan Sin Chang, Yung-Sung Yen

Publication number: 20040140864Abstract: A multi-channel feed network includes a common waveguide section (either square or circular) for connection to a satellite antenna for propagating two orthogonal polarizations. The feed network further includes a low pass section connected with the common waveguide, and a high pass section. The low pass section includes a band reject filter (BRF) formed from slots cut to reject higher frequency signals. The high pass section can be a rectangular waveguide functioning to filter low frequency signals. Orthogonal linear polarizations are provided for the high frequency bands by adding additional high pass sections connected by power dividers, and for the low frequency bands by adding a conventional OMT. By using two 90° degree hybrid couplers and two power dividers, a high pass network can be created to support dual circular or linear polarizations. The high pass network can be die cast as an integrated unit to simplify manufacturing.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 8, 2003Publication date: July 22, 2004Inventors: Ming Hui Chen, Rong-Chan Hsieh, Wei-Tse Cheng
