Abstract: An input apparatus and a command inputting method are described. The input apparatus generates a predetermined command using a motion detected by a motion detector and a user manipulation input to an input unit. Accordingly, a user can use the input device capable of motion detection in various manners to control a number of to-be-controlled devices.

Abstract: A remote controller, a method of setting an operating mode thereof, and a method of determining a host device. The remote controller includes an angle detection unit to set a direction of an end of the remote controller to be a reference axis if a manipulation is input, and to detect a rotational angle between the reference axis and the front end axis of the remote controller if the remote controller rotates, and a controlling unit to control the remote controller to operate in an operating mode corresponding to the rotational angle.

Abstract: A wireless rear speaker expanding apparatus which allows wired rear speakers to expand as wireless rear speakers by attaching a card-type wireless module in a home theater system includes a main body unit to reproduce a multi-channel audio stream from a recording medium, to extract a rear channel audio stream, to detect whether a transmission module unit is mounted, and to switch the rear channel audio stream to a wireless transmission mode or a wired transmission mode, a transmission module unit to modulate the rear channel audio stream extracted from the main body unit into a wireless signal and to wirelessly transmit the signal, if mounted as a detachable card-type unit on the main body unit, and a reception module unit to decode the rear channel audio stream wirelessly transmitted from the transmission module, and to amplify the decoded signal as a rear channel audio signal.

Abstract: Provided are a user interface method of enabling a user to conveniently use a terminal allowing multi-tasking, and a computer readable recording medium storing the method. The user interface method includes classifying applications capable of being executed by the apparatus into groups, in such a manner as to classify one or more applications that perform similar functions into the same group; and displaying a window for executing a corresponding application, for each of the groups.

Abstract: A method for forming an integrated circuit isolation layer includes the steps of forming a patterned masking layer of a semiconductor substrate, forming an oxygen diffusing layer on the patterned masking layer and the exposed portion of the semiconductor substrate, and forming an isolation layer on the exposed portion of the substrate. In particular, the oxygen diffusing layer can be a layer of SiON, and the oxygen diffusing layer can have a thickness in the range of 30 .ANG. to 150 .ANG.. The oxygen diffusing layer and the mask layer can then be removed completing the isolation layer.

Abstract: A sense amplifier of a semiconductor memory device which increases a voltage difference between a bit line and a dummy line is disclosed. The sense amplifier includes: a sense amplifying unit which pre-charges voltages of a dummy line connected to a dummy cell and of a bit line connected to a memory cell by a first equalizing signal, and which senses and amplifies data from the memory cell by inputting the voltages of the dummy line and the bit line by a sense amplifier enable signal; and a voltage variable unit which adjusts the voltages of the dummy line and the bit line by a second equalizing signal, said voltage variable unit having a first voltage variable part which adjusts the voltage of the dummy line by the second equalizing signal and a second voltage variable part which adjusts the voltage of the bit line by the second equalizing signal.
