  • Publication number: 20130091098
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method is disclosed for speeding up database access of electronic design automation (EDA) tool which utilizes a database manager for file access. The EDA tool accesses a plurality of design files, and each of the plurality of design files is associated with one of a plurality of design units for an integrated circuit (IC). The plurality of design files are encapsulated into an archive file which comprises a plurality of data units, wherein each of the data units corresponds to a design file. A request to access a design file will be redirected to access the archive file. The design file is then accessed by accessing the corresponding data unit in the archive file.

  • Publication number: 20120315134
    Abstract: A fan impeller structure includes a frame body, a cover body and a hub. The frame body has a receiving space. The cover body has a wind inlet in communication with the receiving space. The hub is rotatably disposed in the receiving space and has multiple blades annularly arranged on a circumference of the hub. Each blade has a top end and a bottom end. The top end has a projection extending from the top end toward the cover body. An axial space is defined between the blades and the hub. The projections formed at the top ends of the blades are able to effectively prevent the air flowing within the receiving space from escaping. Accordingly, the wind pressure and wind intensity are enhanced to achieve an excellent heat dissipation effect.

  • Publication number: 20120017832
    Abstract: A vapor deposition apparatus includes a susceptor, a gas supply unit, a heating unit and a rotation unit. The susceptor has a first substrate-holding portion and a second substrate-holding portion. The first substrate-holding portion has a first depth, and the second substrate-holding portion has a second depth that is larger than the first depth. The gas supply unit supplies precursors to the susceptor. The heating unit is used to heat the susceptor. The rotation unit can rotate the susceptor so that the heating unit can uniformly heat the susceptor. Because the second depth is larger than the first depth, the substrate held in the second substrate-holding portion can not directly contact the susceptor with a higher temperature and thus its temperature is lower than the second substrate-holding portion, so as to maintain the uniformity of the properties of the manufactured chips.
