  • Patent number: 7876188
    Abstract: The EMI-free planar inductor is the core technology of the green technology. The EMI-free planar inductor adopts the structure of the closed magnetic field flux IC inductor (CMFFICI). All the magnetic field is confined in a small volume. The magnetic field is parallel to the surface of the chip. The EMI-free planar inductor makes the on-chip LC tank having very high Q and saves a lot of energy. Combining with the gain-boost-Q technology, it makes the high performance clock chip being comparable to the xtalchip. The xtalchip is the inductor being replaced with the crystal in the gain-boost Q resonator. Furthermore, the EMI-free planar inductor makes the highest power efficiency boost-buck converter and the on-chip spinning motor. It makes the PC laser TV projector being implementable.

  • Publication number: 20080297265
    Abstract: Even the 4Less-Xtaless, Capless, Indless, Dioless TSOC Design of SOC or 4Free-Xtafree, Capfree, Indfree, Diofree TSOC Design of SOC is developed for the TSOC True System-On-Chip, the 4Less/4Free technologies can still be applied to the conventional XCLK, PMU, etc chip design to have the drastically fantastical improvements over the conventional crystal clock and power management unit chips. The application of 4Less/4Free-TSOC technology to the conventional crystal oscillator to be the QBXOCK Q-Boost Crystal Oscillator Clock, QBTCXO Q-Boost Temperature Cancelling Crystal Oscillator Clock and QBVCXO Q-Boost Voltage Control Crystal Oscillator Clock. Temperature cancelling technique is different from temperature compensation technique. Temperature cancelling technique gets rid of the temperature effect completely. However, the temperature compensation technique still has the residue temperature effect which cannot be compensated with the trimming bits.

  • Publication number: 20080042765
    Abstract: A XtalClkChip based on the application of hierarchical circuit and noise circuit design on the RF circuits of LC oscillation tank and the multi-phase fractional PLL are developed. The XtalClkChip combines both the XtalChip and multi-phase fractional PLL to provide the customer's clock to customer directly. This XtalChip will replace the crystal and the crystal circuit. The XtalClkChip will replace all the customer's clock circuit.
