Abstract: A method of manufacturing a transmission gate includes overlying a substrate with first through fourth adjacent metal segments in a same metal layer. Each of the first and second metal segments, second and third metal segments, and third and fourth metal segments are offset from each other by an offset distance in a first direction, the first metal segment overlies a first active area in the substrate including first and second PMOS transistors, and the fourth metal segment overlies a second active area in the substrate including first and second NMOS transistors. The method includes configuring the first and second PMOS transistors and the first and second NMOS transistors as a transmission gate by forming first through third conductive paths, the first conductive path including a fifth metal segment overlying at least three of the first through fourth metal segments along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.

Abstract: The present disclosure, in some embodiments, relates to an integrated circuit. The integrated circuit includes first and second source/drain regions arranged on or within a substrate. A first gate is arranged over the substrate between the first source/drain region and the second source/drain region. A first middle-end-of-the-line (MEOL) structure is arranged over the second source/drain region and a second MEOL structure is arranged over a third source/drain region. A conductive structure contacts the first MEOL structure and the second MEOL structure. A second gate is separated from the first gate by the second source/drain region. The conductive structure vertically and physically contacts a top surface of the second gate that is coupled to outermost sidewalls of the second gate. A plurality of conductive contacts are configured to electrically couple an interconnect wire and the first MEOL structure along one or more conductive paths extending through the conductive structure.

Abstract: A method includes designing a plurality of cells for a semiconductor device, wherein designing the plurality of cells comprises reserving a routing track of a plurality of routing tracks within each of the plurality of cells, wherein each of the plurality of cells comprises signal lines, and the reserved routing track is free of the signal lines. The method includes placing a first cell and a second cell of the plurality of cells in a layout of the semiconductor device. The method includes determining whether any power rails overlap with any of the plurality of routing tracks other than the reserved routing track in the second cell. The method includes adjusting a distance between the first cell and the second cell in response to a determination that at least one power rail overlaps with at least one routing track other than the reserved routing track.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a method for transmitting information between multiple electronic pages. The method is applicable to an information transmission system, which includes at least one terminal device, a web server, a toolbar server and an application server. The terminal device obtains a background page from the web server and a toolbar page from the toolbar server and embeds the toolbar page into the background page. When a user clicks on any of at least one application linking object on the toolbar page through the terminal device, the terminal device is able to obtain a status page from the toolbar server and then store page information on the background or toolbar page into the status page and connect to the application server for obtaining an application page corresponding to the application linking object clicked on, so as to enable the application page to access the page information.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a method applicable to a network system for automatically inserting an embedded toolbar into a web browser directly by way of a gateway device, wherein a toolbar request instruction written in a dynamic scripting language is inserted into a web page message by the gateway device while the web page message is transmitted from a web server to a terminal device (e.g., a personal computer, personal digital assistant, etc.) through the gateway device, so as to enable the web browser of the terminal device to request an embedded toolbar serve for providing an embedded toolbar message according to the toolbar request instruction and then show an embedded toolbar corresponding to the embedded toolbar message on a web page received from the web server according to the web page message. Thus, a user of the terminal device doesn't have to install the embedded toolbar additionally.

Abstract: An insect artificial feedstuff is dry powder feedstuff composed of 1 to 50 percent by weight of a gelatinizing agent and 1 to 90 percent by weight of a powder foodstuff to further form gel by adding water having predetermined ratio, wherein the powder foodstuff comprises leaf powder formed by grinding at least one natural forage. Accordingly, other contents geld by utilizing the viscosity of the gelatinizing agent can be obtained to prepare artificial feedstuff having proper softness for different insects. The feeding rate of insect can be increased by the leaf powder, and the commonality of the insect artificial feedstuff can be effectively enhanced.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a system including at least one storage device for storing at least one file each having a file name, a home gateway having a routing identification code and connected to the storage device, and a server connected to the home gateway via the Internet for receiving the routing identification code and the file name uploaded by the home gateway. The server stores a user's registration information corresponding to the routing identification code. When a terminal device connected to the server via the Internet uses the registration information to pass the server's verification and thus log in the server, the server transmits the file name to the terminal device and, when receiving a request instruction from the terminal device, then retrieves the file from the storage device by way of the home gateway and then sends the file to the terminal device as requested.
