  • Publication number: 20210006768
    Abstract: The invention provides a three-dimensional (3D) image processing circuit and a synchronization signal correction method thereof. The 3D image processing circuit is adapted to process a 3D image signal. The 3D image signal includes an image synchronization signal and a view switching signal. The 3D image processing circuit includes a synchronization signal correction circuit coupled to the image processing circuit. A synchronization circuit of the synchronization signal correction circuit receives an image synchronization signal processed by the image processing circuit and simultaneously receives the view switching signal. The synchronization circuit compares the processed image synchronization signal with the view switching signal, so as to output a view switching signal synchronized with the processed image synchronization signal. The invention further provides an image display device including the above 3D image processing circuit.

  • Patent number: 7985618
    Abstract: A semiconductor device and a fabrication method thereof are provided. An opening having at least one slanted side is formed on a substrate. At least one chip and at least one passive component are mounted on the substrate. An encapsulant having a cutaway corner is formed on the substrate to encapsulate the chip and the passive component, wherein the cutaway corner of the encapsulant is spaced apart from the slanted side of the opening by a predetermined distance. A singulation process is performed to cut the encapsulant to form a package with a chamfer. The package is embedded in a lid to form the semiconductor device, wherein a portion of the substrate located between the slanted side of the opening and the cutaway corner of the encapsulant is exposed from the encapsulant to form an exposed portion. The present invention also provides a carrier for the semiconductor device.
