  • Patent number: 5940267
    Abstract: A heat sink mounted on a heat producing element for cooling the heat producing element attached on the printed board of the electronic apparatus, having a heat sink body made of a good heat conductive material and a fan assembly installed inside the heat sink body. The heat sink body is efficiently air-cooled by a cooling air generated by the rotation of the fan assembly. The cooling air forcibly cools a base and a fixing wall of the base adjacent to the heat producing element and plate-like radiating fins or a pin-like radiating fins are protruded on the heat sink body to radiate the heat effectively. The position of the fan assembly is at the center of the heat sink body or is at the offset position from the center of the heat sink body. The heat sink of the present invention can be installed in a portable electronic apparatus such as a portable computer.

  • Patent number: 3963523
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing semiconductor devices is provided which comprises the steps of depositing a coating of platinum on the surface of a silicon substrate prior to the formation of a plated nickel layer thereon, plating a layer of nickel on the silicon substrate coated with platinum, and then subjecting the structure to the process of heat treatment to thereby cause the platinum to diffuse into the silicon substrate, whereby the platinum acts to increase the adhesion strength of the plated nickel layer on the silicon substrate and further the platinum element diffused into the silicon substrate serves as a lifetime killer of carriers to thereby improve the switching characteristic of the semiconductor device.

  • Patent number: 3959664
    Abstract: A cathodic protection, anticorrosive circuit comprises a diode connection of a transistor or a Schotkky diode interconnected between a buried structure to be protected and a galvanic anode or the like so that even when the difference in potential between them is relatively low, an effective forward or anticorrosion current may flow while positively preventing the reverse current which causes the corrosion of the buried structure.
