In some examples, a workpiece is received that includes a substrate and a plurality of fins extending from the substrate. A first layer is formed on a side surface of each of the plurality of fins such that a trench bounded by the first layer extends between the plurality of fins. A cut feature is formed in the trench. A first gate structure is formed on a first fin of the plurality of fins, and a second gate structure is formed on a second fin of the plurality of fins such that the cut feature is disposed between the first gate structure and the second gate structure.

Abstract: A fail-safe on-board unit, a movable device, and a control method for a vehicle which will automatically and reliably broadcast a distress signal to a rescue center in the event of accident includes in the on-board unit a first subscriber identity module (SIM), a second SIM, a main processor, a modem, a radio frequency (RF) switch module, and an antenna module with several antennas. The main processor selects the first SIM and / or the second SIM to make a call to generate a baseband signal, and outputs the baseband signal to the modem, the modem converts the baseband signal into an RF signal, and outputs the RF signal to the RF switch module to transmit outward via one or more antennas of the antenna module. The on-board unit has a wider network coverage to ensure higher success rate of emergency calls.

Abstract: A method and system for obtaining wire information, includes a RFID tag, a RFID reader, and a data center. The RFID tact obtains the sensing information of the wire and transmits the sensing information and identification information of the RFID tag. The RFID reader transmits high-frequency electromagnetic waves to trigger the RFID tact and transmits and receives sensing information and identification information sent by the RFID tag. The data center is communicatively connected with the RFID reader and determines the type of the received sensing information based on the received sensing information and identification information for data analysis.

Abstract: A method and system for detecting pin misalignment of ICs when being inserted into IC sockets includes a pressure sensing unit obtaining information as to pin insertion and pressure exerted by the pin and outputting the sensed information. A microprocessor receives the sensed information and obtains a pressure value correspondingly. Any misalignment of the pin is determined according to the pressure value so calculated.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a printed circuit board (PCB), an antenna and a switch. The antenna is printed on the PCB. The antenna includes multiple key contacts. Each of the multiple key contacts includes a first terminal, a second terminal and a third terminal. The first terminal is an output terminal. The second terminal and the third terminal are connected in series in the antenna. The switch switches the electronic device to an input mode and an antenna mode, thus the electronic device can be alternatively switched to an input function or a communication function.
