  • Publication number: 20240120224
    Abstract: A semiconductor manufacturing equipment may include a process chamber for treating a substrate; a front-end module including a first transfer robot, wherein the first transfer robot may be configured to transport the substrate received in a container; a transfer chamber between the front-end module and the process chamber, wherein the transfer chamber may be configured to load or unload the substrate into or out of the process chamber; and a cassette capable of receiving a replaceable component capable of being used in the process chamber. The front-end module may include a seat plate configured to move in a sliding manner so as to retract or extend into or from the front-end module. The cassette may be configured to be loaded into the front-end module while the cassette is seated on the seat plate.

  • Patent number: 10224709
    Abstract: A battery protective circuit includes a battery controller, a charging control transistor, and a protection circuit. The battery controller controls charging of a battery according to a charging control voltage output through a charging control terminal. The a charging control transistor electrically connects the battery to a charger or to electrically disconnect the battery from the charger. The protection circuit includes a voltage sensing terminal electrically connected to a load, an input terminal electrically connected to the charging control terminal, and an output terminal electrically connected to a gate terminal of the charging control transistor. The protection circuit outputs a signal through the output terminal to turn off the charging control transistor, regardless of the charging control voltage of the input terminal, when a voltage equal to or greater than a threshold voltage is sensed at the voltage sensing terminal.
