Abstract: An integrated motor and drive assembly is disclosed and includes a housing, a motor and a drive. The housing includes a motor-accommodation portion and a drive-accommodation portion. The drive includes a power board and a control board. The power board is made of a high thermal conductivity substrate and includes a power element and an encoder disposed on the first side, the first side faces the motor, the power board and the motor are stacked along a first direction, and the second side contacts the housing to from a heat-dissipating route. The control board is disposed adjacent to the power board. The control board and the power board are arranged along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, and the first direction is parallel to an axial direction of the motor. A part of the power board and a part of the control board are directly contacted to form an electrical connection.

Abstract: A method of processing an image data for an image processing device includes a plurality of steps. The steps include receiving the image data; storing the image data in a frame buffer of the image processing device; performing a signal processing procedure on the image data obtained from the frame buffer, to generate a final display data; restoring the final display data in the frame buffer; and entering a power saving mode after the final display data is restored in the frame buffer. In the power saving mode, the image processing device performs the following steps: turning off the signal processing circuit; and outputting the final display data restored in the frame buffer, to display the final display data.

Abstract: A method includes causing a carrier of an overhead hoist transfer system (OHT) to latch onto a top latch of a first semiconductor wafer transportation pod, the first semiconductor wafer transportation pod comprising a top latching mechanism configured to selectively connect to another pod or a carrier mechanism of an overhead hoist transfer (OHT) system, and a bottom latching mechanism configured to selectively connect to another pod. The method further includes rotating the first semiconductor wafer transportation pod such that the top latching mechanism of the first semiconductor wafer transportation pod latches on to a second semiconductor wafer transportation pod.

Abstract: A light-trapping cancer cell stage testing method includes: measuring a first average escape velocity or range of first cancer cells and a second average escape velocity or range of second cancer cells whose stage is known and differ from that of the first cancer cells and whose types are known; utilizing the first average escape velocity and the second average escape velocity to calculate a reference ratio to build a database; selecting stage-unknown cancer cells and measuring an escape velocity of the stage-unknown cancer cells (type-known); utilizing the escape velocity of the stage-unknown cancer cells and an escape velocity of reference-stage cancer cells to calculate a ratio; and determining a stage of the stage-unknown cancer cells with a result comparing the ratio of the escape velocities for the stage-unknown cancer cells with the reference ratios stored in the database.
