Patent number: 7838429Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device that method comprises forming a thin film resistor by a process that includes depositing a resistive material layer on a semiconductor substrate. The process also includes depositing an insulating layer on the resistive material layer, and performing a first dry etch process on the insulating layer to form an insulative body. The process further includes performing a second dry etch process on the resistive material layer to form a resistive body. The resistive body and the insulative body have substantially identical perimeters.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2007Date of Patent: November 23, 2010Assignee: Texas Instruments IncorporatedInventors: Tony Phan, Kyle M.

Patent number: 7419831Abstract: A method for calibrating an analysis instrument, e.g., a gas chromatograph, for water analysis that includes four steps. The first step is to continuously remove water from a liquid that contains water to produce a liquid containing a reduced amount of water such as by membrane pervaporation. The second step is to analyze the liquid containing a reduced amount of water for water by a reference water analysis method such as by Karl Fischer titration. The third step is to analyze the stream of liquid containing a reduced amount of water using the instrument to be calibrated, e.g., a gas chromatograph having a helium photoionization pulse discharge detector. The fourth step is to calibrate the instrument using the analysis of the second step. In a related embodiment, a system for normal phase chromatography.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2002Date of Patent: September 2, 2008Assignee: Dow Global Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Nile Nelson Frawley, Jeffrey Robert Larson, Mark William Beach, Mark Lindsay Dittenhafer, Steven Randall Erskine, Joseph J. Kiefer

Patent number: 7403095Abstract: A thin film resistor structure and a method of fabricating a thin film resistor structure is provided. The thin film resistor structure includes an electrical interface layer or head layer that is a combination of a Titanium (Ti) layer and a Titanium Nitride (TiN) layer. The combination of the Ti layer and the TiN layer mitigates resistance associated with the electrical interface layers.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2005Date of Patent: July 22, 2008Assignee: Texas Instruments IncorporatedInventors: Brian Vialpando, Eric William Beach, Philipp Steinmann

Patent number: 7323751Abstract: A thin film resistor and at least one metal interconnect are formed in an integrated circuit. A first dielectric layer is formed over a metal interconnect layer. A thin film resistor is formed on the first dielectric layer and a second dielectric layer formed over the thin film resistor. Thin film resistor vias and the at least one trench are formed concurrently in the second dielectric layer. A trench via is then formed in the at least one trench. The trench via, the at least one trench and the thin film resistor vias are filled with a contact material layer to form thin film resistor contacts and at least one conductive line coupled to the metal interconnect layer.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2003Date of Patent: January 29, 2008Assignee: Texas Instruments IncorporatedInventors: Eric Williams Beach, Rajneesh Jaiswal

Patent number: 5421484Abstract: An apparatus is provided for dispensing frozen confections, such as ice cream and yogurts. A collapsible container is adapted to contain the frozen confection and is provided with an outlet of sufficient size to permit extrusion of frozen confection into an outlet dispensing conduit. A compressive force that may be applied by a piston causes the extrusion of frozen confection from the collapsible container into the outlet conduit. A receptacle is provided for the collapsible container wherein the receptacle is so designed that upon collapsing the collapsible container the collapsible container does not collapse into or otherwise plug or interfere with the flow of soft confection through the collapsible container outlet.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 1993Date of Patent: June 6, 1995Assignee: Polar Express International, Inc.Inventor: William A. Beach

Patent number: 4217224Abstract: The invention provides a filter plate of increased size which includes a reinforcing bar which subdivides the inner face of the plate into distinct drainage areas. The drainage areas are in liquid flow communication with each other via recess formed in the reinforcing bar. The plate is provided with raised spacing elements which are positioned in a special pattern to provide uniform deflection across the plate when the filter press is under pressure. The plate is further provided with a staggered, offset pattern of drainage ribs which enhances filter cloth support, increases plate strength and improves liquid flow around the spacing elements.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 1978Date of Patent: August 12, 1980Assignee: Envirotech CorporationInventors: William L. Fismer, William A. Beach
