  • Patent number: 11715784
    Abstract: A semiconductor substrate is provided. A trench isolation region is formed in the semiconductor substrate. A resist pattern having an opening exposing the trench isolation region and partially exposing the semiconductor substrate is disposed adjacent to the trench isolation region. A first ion implantation process is performed to implant first dopants into the semiconductor substrate through the opening, thereby forming a well region in the semiconductor substrate. The trench isolation region is within the well region. A second ion implantation process is performed to implant second dopants into the semiconductor substrate through the opening, thereby forming an extended doped region contiguous with the well region. The resist pattern is then removed. After removing the resist pattern, a gate dielectric layer is formed on the semiconductor substrate. A gate is then formed on the gate dielectric layer. The gate overlaps with the extended doped region.

  • Patent number: 10972100
    Abstract: A dial device includes a base, a cover, a column, a magnet, a magnetic sensor and a signal processing circuit. The cover includes a cap portion and a side wall vertically extending from the cap portion. The column surrounded by the wall includes a first end for connecting to the base and a second end for connecting to the cover. The magnet surrounds the column and is disposed on the base or the cover. The magnetic sensor is disposed on a side surface of the column and coupled to the signal processing circuit. When the cover rotates relative to the base, the magnet rotates around the magnetic sensor, and the magnetic field strengths sensed by the magnetic sensor vary. The signal processing circuit determines the relative rotation direction between the cover and the base according to the difference of the magnetic field strengths sensed by the magnetic sensor.
