  • Publication number: 20250149463
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for top die back-side marking for memory systems are described. One or more alignment marks may be added to the back-side of a top memory die in a multi-layer memory device and used to align a position of the top memory die relative to a position of a memory die below the top memory die. The alignment marks may be formed on the top memory die during the manufacturing process of the multi-layer memory device. Operations for forming the alignment marks are described using various semiconductor fabrication techniques. Operations are also disclosed for using the alignment marks to modify placement of the top memory die to reduce the alignment offset in the manufacturing process of subsequent memory dies.

  • Patent number: 12192355
    Abstract: A method for positioning a device includes: sending a query instruction to a server, wherein the query instruction is configured to query a target coordinate location of the terminal device. The method also includes receiving a query response from the server. The query response includes the target coordinate location and a target public key digest. The target coordinate location is obtained by encrypting a coordinate location that is positioned for the device. The target coordinate location is sent to the server as well as the target public key digest synchronously. The method also includes determining a target private key based on the target public key digest; and decrypting the target coordinate location using the target private key to obtain the coordinate location located by the device.
