Abstract: An electric machine having a rectifier assembly placed within a rotating shaft of the electric machine to convert the AC output of the electric machine to DC prior to transmission of the electricity from the electric machine.

Abstract: A semiconductor apparatus includes a substrate; and a plurality of semiconductor thin films formed on said substrate, each of said semiconductor thin films having a pn-junction, and electrodes of p-type and n-type for injecting carriers to the pn-junction, wherein said semiconductor thin films are formed so that all or a part of said pn-junctions are connected serially. As different from a semiconductor thin film constituted of a single pn-junction, the light emission with the invented semiconductor apparatus is the summation of the light emission intensities of the entire pn-junctions, so that the light emitting intensity can be increased largely.

Abstract: A semiconductor chip constitutes a semiconductor device in which a plurality of semiconductor chips are laminated. The semiconductor chip includes a plurality of terminals which are to be connected to another semiconductor chip. At least one terminal of the terminals has a higher height than that of another terminal.

Abstract: A module having multiple die includes a first package (such as a land grid array package) inverted and mounted upon a lower substrate, and one or more die mounted or stacked over the upward-facing side of the inverted package.

Abstract: A semiconductor module according to the invention includes: an island formed of a conductive material; a plurality of leads disposed in vicinity of the island; a resin sealing body which is mounted on the island and disposed such that a back surface of a circuit board on which semiconductor elements is exposed upward; a sensor which is mounted on the back surface of the circuit board; and a thin metallic wire which electrically connects the circuit board with the leads. The island, the resin sealing body, the sensor, and parts of the leads are sealed by a second sealing resin.

Abstract: A method and system for universal packaging in conjunction with an automated in-line back-end IC manufacturing process. In one method embodiment, the present invention processes a die-strip through a number of integrated in-line processes that function independently of the die size of the die-strip. A control computer maintains a die-strip map database recording the die size of the die-strip. In-line molding and solder ball attachment processes are then performed and function independently of the die size of the die-strip. Processes that are independent of die size provide a universal packaging manufacturing solution. The present invention then accesses the database to determine the die size for cutting the die-strip based on specifications maintained by the electronic die-strip map database. Sorting, testing and finish assembly processes are then performed.
