  • Patent number: 11923405
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes a substrate, an insulating layer disposed on the substrate, a first conductive feature disposed in the insulating layer, and a capacitor structure disposed on the insulating layer. The capacitor structure includes a first electrode, a first dielectric layer, a second electrode, a second dielectric layer, and a third electrode sequentially stacked. The semiconductor device also includes a first via connected to the first electrode and the third electrode, a second via connected to the second electrode, and a third via connected to the first conductive feature. A part of the first via is disposed in the insulating layer. A portion of the first conductive feature is directly under the capacitor structure.

  • Publication number: 20180027240
    Abstract: A video encoding apparatus has a bitstream buffer and a first video encoder. The first video encoder sequentially encodes coding blocks of a first video frame segment in a first encoding order, and outputs encoded data of the coding blocks of the first video frame segment to the bitstream buffer. The first video frame segment is partitioned into a plurality of column tiles, each having at least one tile. The first encoding order is identical to an encoding order of encoding a video frame segment with only a single column tile.

  • Patent number: 9383787
    Abstract: A heat dissipating module disposed at a motherboard includes a fan, a air guiding cover, a first fin set and a second fin set. The fan provides cool air and is disposed in the air guiding cover. The air guiding cover includes a first air outlet, a second air outlet and an air guiding part connected between the first air outlet and the second air outlet. The first fin set is disposed at an upper surface of the motherboard and includes a plurality of first fins. The first air outlet covers at least a part of the first fins. The second fin set is disposed at a bottom surface opposite to the upper surface and extends to a side edge of the motherboard. The second fin set includes a plurality of second fins located beside the side edge, and the second air outlet covers the second fins.

  • Publication number: 20140104770
    Abstract: A heat dissipating structure is provided and it covers a printed circuit board (PCB) including at least one interface card slot. The heat dissipating structure includes a board, at least one heat sink and at least one interface card opening. The board has a first surface and a second surface which are opposite to each other. The second surface of the board faces the PCB. The heat sink is formed at the first surface of the board. The interface card opening penetrates through the first surface and the second surface of the board, so as to make the interface card slot exposed in the interface card opening.
