  • Optical module for a cellular phone
    Patent number: 8605210
    Abstract: The invention relates to an optical module for a cellular phone having an image sensor comprising a light sensitive upper side for detecting and converting optical signals into electrical signals, an imaging device for imaging the optical signals on the image sensor, and a circuit board comprising an upper side and a lower side electrically and mechanically connected to the image sensor. In order to create a particularly flat optical module, for example for integration into a cellular phone, the invention provides that the circuit board has a recess in which the image sensor is disposed such that a lower side of the image sensor is substantially located at the same height as the lower side of the circuit board.

  • Positioning wafer lenses on electronic imagers
    Patent number: 8063975
    Abstract: A low cost manufacturing method (300) and assembly (100) for positioning a lens (106) relative to an electronic imager (102). A viscous adhesive (104) is applied to the lens (106) or the electronic imager (102) outside of the optical path. The lens (106) is disposed on the electronic imager (102) exclusively with the adhesive (104) disposed between them.

  • Anti-fuse cell and its manufacturing process
    Patent number: 7989914
    Abstract: An anti-fuse cell includes a standard MOS transistor of an integrated circuit, with source and drain regions covered with a metal silicide layer and at least one track of a resistive layer at least partially surrounding the MOS transistor, and adapted to pass a heating current such that the metal of said metal silicide diffuses across drain and/or source junctions.
