Abstract: A movement detection method, applied to a navigation input device with a navigation pattern comprising a center pattern and a radial pattern. The movement detection method comprises: (a)capturing a sensing image comprising a center pattern image and at least portion of a radial pattern image by an image sensor, wherein the center pattern image corresponds to the center pattern and the radial pattern image corresponding to the radial pattern; (b)computing a translation of the navigation input device according to shift of the center pattern image; and (c)computing a rotation angle of the navigation input device according to a first pattern relation between the center pattern image and a first portion of the radial pattern image. The translation and the rotation angle can be precisely and sensitively detected even if the joystick device is miniaturized, since the translation and the rotation angle are computed according to the navigation pattern.

Abstract: A signal calibration method, a memory storage device, and a memory control circuit unit are provided. The signal calibration method includes: generating a clock signal and a data strobe signal according to an internal clock signal; respectively transmitting the clock signal and the data strobe signal to a target volatile memory module among multiple volatile memory modules through a first signal path and a second signal path; obtaining a shift value between the data strobe signal and the clock signal at the target volatile memory module; and storing an initial delay setting of the data strobe signal according to delay information of the data strobe signal in response to the shift value being greater than a threshold value.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a method for forming metallization layers that include a ruthenium metal liner and a cobalt metal fill. The method includes depositing a first dielectric on a substrate having a gate structure and source/drain (S/D) structures, forming an opening in the first dielectric to expose the S/D structures, and depositing a ruthenium metal on bottom and sidewall surfaces of the opening. The method further includes depositing a cobalt metal on the ruthenium metal to fill the opening, reflowing the cobalt metal, and planarizing the cobalt and ruthenium metals to form S/D conductive structures with a top surface coplanar with a top surface of the first dielectric.

Abstract: An electronic package is provided, in which an electronic element is arranged on a carrier structure having a plurality of wire-bonding pads arranged on a surface of the carrier structure, and a plurality of bonding wires are connected to a plurality of electrode pads of the electronic element and the plurality of wire-bonding pads. Further, among any three adjacent ones of the plurality of wire-bonding pads, a long-distanced first wire-bonding pad, a middle-distanced second wire-bonding pad and a short-distanced third wire-bonding pad are defined according to their distances from the electronic element. Therefore, even if the bonding wires on the first to third wire-bonding pads are impacted by an adhesive where a wire sweep phenomenon occurred when the flowing adhesive of a packaging layer covers the electronic element and the bonding wires, the bonding wires still would not contact each other, thereby avoiding short circuit problems.
