Patents by Inventor Ting-Ting Hwang

Ting-Ting Hwang has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9304167
    Abstract: An apparatus of three-dimensional integrated-circuit (3D-IC) chip is provided. The apparatus uses a test through-silicon-via (TSV). The test TSV is used as a redundant TSV operated under a normal mode. Vice versa, the test TSV is remained to be used as a traditional test TSV under a scan mode. The present invention significantly reduces the number of redundant TSVs and the production cost of the chip.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8174126
    Abstract: A stacked multi-chip comprises a base layer, a first chip, a first stacked chip and at least one second stacked chip. The base layer comprises a mounting panel and a redistributed layer. The redistributed layer is mounted on the mounting panel. The first chip comprises an electrically non-conductive layer and a connective layer. The electrically non-conductive layer comprises a TSV channel. The connective layer abuts the redistributed layer. The first stacked chip is mounted on the first chip and comprises an electrically non-conductive layer and a connective layer. The electrically non-conductive layer comprises a TSV channel that is connected to the TSV channel of the first chip. The second stacked chip is mounted on the first stacked chip and comprises an electrically non-conductive layer and a connective layer. The electrically non-conductive layer comprises a TSV channel. The connective layer is connected to the connective layer of the first stacked chip.

  • Publication number: 20070271535
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for crosstalk elimination in high-performance processors. The method, based on the combination of a deassembler and an assembler, eliminates crosstalk with fewer extra wires. The method of the present invention includes the steps of: deassembling a first piece of data to a plurality of data segments; conducting a parallel crosstalk check on the data segments to form a second piece of data that is crosstalk-free; and restoring the first piece of data based on the second piece of data. The present invention also discloses a bus architecture performing the method for crosstalk elimination, which includes a deassembler, a transmission bus and an assembler.
