  • Publication number: 20240096787
    Abstract: A semiconductor device structure is provided. The semiconductor device structure includes an interconnection structure over a semiconductor substrate and a conductive pillar over the interconnection structure. The conductive pillar has a protruding portion extending towards the semiconductor substrate from a lower surface of the conductive pillar. The semiconductor device structure also includes an upper conductive via between the conductive pillar and the interconnection structure and a lower conductive via between the upper conductive via and the interconnection structure. The lower conductive via is electrically connected to the conductive pillar through the upper conductive via. The conductive pillar extends across opposite sidewalls of the upper conductive via and opposite sidewalls of the lower conductive via. A top view of an entirety of the second conductive via is separated from a top view of an entirety of the protruding portion.

  • Patent number: 11139816
    Abstract: A clock and data recovery circuit is disclosed. The clock and data recovery circuit includes a phase detection circuit, a first voting circuit, a low-pass filtering circuit and a phase interpolation circuit. The phase detection circuit is configured to receive a first signal and a clock signal and generate a phase signal. The first voting circuit is configured to charge at least one capacitance component according to the phase signal and generate a first voting signal according to a charging result. The low-pass filtering circuit is configured to generate a phase control signal according to the first voting signal. The phase interpolation circuit is configured to generate the clock signal according to the phase control signal.

  • Patent number: 10965438
    Abstract: A signal receiving circuit, a memory storage device and a signal receiving method are provided. The signal receiving circuit includes an equalizer module, a clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit and a controller. The equalizer module is configured to receive a first signal and compensate the first signal to generate a second signal. The CDR circuit is configured to perform a phase locking on the second signal. The controller is configured to open or close a signal pattern filter of the CDR circuit according to the second signal, wherein the signal pattern filter is configured to filter a signal having a specific pattern in the second signal.
