Abstract: A magic trick for causing a solid ring to falsely penetrate through a flexible solid chain. A magician suspends a portion of the chain from a first hand, wherein the portion has a generally U-shape. The magician also holds the ring by a second hand to position the ring near the top of the portion. Then, the ring is released from the second hand and caused to rotate with respect to the portion so that the bottom tip of the portion loops around a portion of the ring and thereby a loop for hanging the ring from the chain is formed by a bottom part of the portion. The ring hanging from the chain makes an audience of the magic trick perceive a false impression that the solid ring has passed through the solid chain.

Abstract: A wafer level IC structure and a method of manufacturing this wafer level IC structure are proposed, which can help increase the yield of the IC manufacture. The wafer level IC structure is constructed on a semiconductor wafer which is defined into a plurality of discrete IC blocks on the wafer, each IC block being used to form a plurality of IC components such as memory cells. A multi-layer interconnect structure is formed to electrically interconnect these IC components in each of the IC blocks. A first testing and repair process is then perform to disconnect any inoperative IC components from active use. This completes the fabrication stage of the manufacture process. In the subsequent packaging stage, a redistribution line structure is formed to interconnect the discrete IC blocks into an integral functional unit. A second testing and repair process is then perform to disconnect any inoperative IC blocks from active use.

Abstract: A cache TAG RAM (20) has a TAG array (22, 24) for storing TAG addresses of data stored in a cache memory, and a valid bit array (26, 31). In the cache TAG RAM (20), a valid bit is set for each TAG address to indicate if the TAG address is valid. The valid bit array (26, 31) is located separate from the TAG array (22, 24). During power-up of the cache TAG RAM (20), a multiple step invalidation cycle is used to sequentially invalidate groups of columns of the valid bit array (26, 31). The multiple step invalidation cycle reduces the peak current during an invalidation cycle, thus reducing metal migration.
