  • Publication number: 20230361871
    Abstract: A method for measuring polarization-dependent loss (PDL) of an optical link segment. The method has the steps of: measuring powers of first and second pilot tones (PTs) in a polarization-multiplexed (PM) optical signal at first and second link locations at or about an input and an output end of the optical link segment, respectively, the PM optical signal having first and second optical signals with orthogonal polarizations and amplitude-modulated by the first and second PTs, respectively; calculating a first orthogonal polarization power ratio (OPPR) of the first and second PTs using the powers thereof measured at the first link location; calculating a second OPPR of the first and second PTs using the powers thereof measured at the second link location; and calculating the PDL of the optical link segment based on a comparison between the first and second OPPRs.

  • Publication number: 20230306181
    Abstract: A method performed by a computer system includes: searching leakage current values of associated with cell abutment cases which are associated with terminal types of abutted cells of a semiconductor device; determining leakage probabilities according to the cell abutment cases; calculating expected boundary leakages between the abutted cells based on the leakage probabilities and the leakage current values; and generating a layout of the semiconductor device according to the expected boundary leakages. Two of the leakage probabilities correspond to two of the cell abutment cases, respectively, and the two of the leakage probabilities are different from each other when the two of the cell abutment cases are different from each other.

  • Patent number: 11737555
    Abstract: A lightweight beam structure includes a first and a second frame. The first frame includes an upper plate, two inner side plates downward bent and extended from two sides of the upper plate, two outer side plates upward bent and extended from two inner side plates respectively and two fixing plates bent and extended from two outer side plates respectively. Each outer side plate is formed outside each inner side plate. A groove is formed between each inner side plate and each outer side plate. The second frame is connected with the first frame and includes a top plate and two intermediate plates downward bent and extended from two sides of the top plate. Each intermediate plate is received in each groove. The top plate is formed over the upper plate. Therefore, the stability is maintained and the weight is reduced so that the material costs may be decreased.

  • Patent number: 11726110
    Abstract: A connecting device for electrically connecting signal contact portions of an electrical device under test includes a lower modular unit and an upper modular unit. The lower modular unit includes a port substrate and a plurality of lower connecting terminals electrically connected with the port substrate. The upper modular unit is disposed above the lower modular unit and includes a plurality of upper connecting terminals movable relative to an upper wall. The upper connecting terminals are movable as a result of a downward pressing of the electrical device to the upper modular unit to project outwardly of the upper wall and to electrically connect with the signal contact portions. The upper connecting terminals are electrically connected with the lower connecting terminals.

  • Patent number: 11720738
    Abstract: A system includes a library, a processor and an output interface. The library contains at least one leakage lookup table related to leakage current values for different cell abutment cases of abutted cells in a semiconductor device. The cell abutment cases are associated with terminal types of cell edges of the abutted cells. The processor is configured to perform an analysis to detect boundaries between the abutted cells, identify attributes associated with the terminal types of the cell edges, identify the cell abutment cases based on the attributes, and calculate maximal boundary leakages between the abutted cells based on leakage current values associated with the cell abutment cases and leakage probabilities associated with the cell abutment cases. The output interface is for outputting boundary leakages corresponding to the maximal boundary leakages in the semiconductor device. A method is also disclosed herein.

  • Patent number: 11552549
    Abstract: A voltage balancing circuit for use in a power converter is described. In one example, a power converter includes series-connected switching transistors for power conversion, and a voltage balancing control loop. The voltage balancing control loop includes a measurement circuit electrically coupled to a transistor in the pair of series-connected switching transistors. The measurement circuit is electrically coupled to measure a body voltage reference of the transistor. The voltage balancing control loop also includes a balancing circuit configured to generate a balancing pulse signal for adjusting a voltage across the transistor using the body voltage reference, and a circuit configured to combine the balancing pulse signal with a gate drive pulse signal for the transistor, to form a balanced gate drive pulse signal for the transistor. The balanced gate drive pulse signal helps to equalize the body diode voltages of the series-connected switching transistors, particularly during “off” periods.
