  • Publication number: 20130143376
    Abstract: A method of fabricating a one-time programmable (OTP) memory cell with improved read current in one of its programmed states, and a memory cell so fabricated. The OTP memory cell is constructed with trench isolation structures on its sides. After trench etch, and prior to filling the isolation trenches with dielectric material, a fluorine implant is performed into the trench surfaces. The implant may be normal to the device surface or at an angle from the normal. Completion of the cell transistor to form a floating-gate metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) transistor is then carried out. Improved on-state current (Ion) results from the fluorine implant.

  • Patent number: 6883646
    Abstract: An oil injection apparatus for injecting lubricating oil to gears, bushings and the like includes an oil injection dock, which has a housing section for holding a plurality of objects for oil injection, and an oil injection section corresponding to the housing section. The oil injection section has a plurality of oil injection outlets and a sensor. When the object for oil injection drops into the oil injection section, the sensor transmits a signal to an oil supply device to inject lubricating oil through the oil injection outlets to the object.

  • Patent number: 6786319
    Abstract: An electrically conductive belt conveyer through which objects transported can be conducted with electric power for electrical test during transportation. Conductive members are built inside the belt and formed a normally open circuit. As an object being placed on the belt, the object, the conductive members and a power supply form a closed circuit. The belt conveyer is less expensive than a conventional chain conveyor for electrical test.

  • Patent number: 6725516
    Abstract: A rubber ring coupling apparatus for coupling rubber rings with an object includes a ring cartridge and expansion elements. A rubber ring is held in an expansion opening located in the ring cartridge. The expansion elements are disposed into the rubber ring and expanded along expansion slots formed in the ring cartridge. Then the object is inserted into the rubber ring and the expansion elements are withdrawn from the rubber ring to let the rubber ring couple with the object. Thereby assembly labor cost and time may be reduced.
