Abstract: The present solution preserves an amount of charge sufficient to reach a nearest or most convenient charger in a battery of a vehicle during a prolonged vehicle disuse. The solution can include a data processing system that can identify an inactive state of a battery and determine that the vehicle should enter an energy reservation mode. The data processing system can identify a vehicle charger and determine, based on a location of the vehicle and the charger, an amount of energy needed for the vehicle to reach the charging unit. The data processing system can determine a power reservation threshold for the first battery and modify, based on the power reservation threshold, a level of energy provided by the first battery to the second battery to maintain at least the first amount of amount of energy in the first battery.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing an electronic device, which can obtain sufficient manufacturing margins and reduce a defect rate by compensating for a threshold voltage variation caused by the variation of a critical dimension (CD) of a gate electrode. An ion implanter controller and an ion implantation system perform the method. In the method, an ion implantation recipe for forming a junction contact plug of a transistor formed on the wafer is adjusted based on the measured CD. Then, ions are implanted into the wafer by using the adjusted ion implantation recipe. All defects that may occur in the transistor during previous manufacturing steps can be repaired after the transistor is formed, thus enhancing manufacturing margins.
