| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 6148239 | Process control system using feed forward control threads based on material groups A process control system using feed forward control threads based on material groups performs material tracking to account and adjust for variability of processing in a process flow that includes multiple machines, machine configurations, and machine setu... | 11/14/2000 |
| 6131131 | Computer system including an enhanced communication interface for an ACPI-compliant controller A conventional keyboard-style ACPI interface is greatly enhanced by the inclusion of a bi-directional hardware buffer and a special software protocol that allows multiple byte command and data messages to be sent in a burst fashion. The illustrative enhan... | 10/10/2000 |
| 6094711 | Apparatus and method for reducing data bus pin count of an interface while substantially maintaining performance The pin count of a processor is substantially reduced while effectively maintaining processor performance by using a staging register to receive and store a first data segment from a bus. A second data segment is received from the bus in a subsequent bus ... | 07/25/2000 |
| 6087706 | Compact transistor structure with adjacent trench isolation and source/drain regions implanted vertically into trench walls A semiconductor integrated circuit with a transistor formed within an active area defined by side-walls of a shallow trench isolation region, and method of fabrication thereof, is described. A gate electrode is formed over a portion of the active area and... | 07/11/2000 |
| 6054735 | Very thin PECVD SiO2 in 0.5 micron and 0.35 micron technologies A very thin (less than 350 angstrom) layer of silicon dioxide (SiO2) is produced using plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) by substantially increasing the time duration of pre-coat and soak time steps of the PECVD process and subs... | 04/25/2000 |
| 6037607 | Structure for testing junction leakage of salicided devices fabricated using shallow trench and refill techniques A resistor protect mask is used on a shallow trench isolation device junction to cover a device area except for a strip on the perimeter of the device area. The silicide layer formed on the central surface portion of the device and the strip area on the p... | 03/14/2000 |
| 5958000 | Two-bit booth multiplier with reduced data path width A two-bit Booth multiplier circuit performs two-bit multiplication iterations using a single adder while retaining the same data path width and the multiplicand multiples of a single-bit Booth multiplier circuit. The two-bit Booth multiplier circuit halve... | 09/28/1999 |
| 5960207 | System and method for reducing power losses by gating an active power factor conversion process A power supply includes a power factor correction converter and a controller that disables a power factor correction converter when the power supply is operating in a low power mode, when the power factor correction converter is not needed. The controller... | 09/28/1999 |
| 5689693 | Range finding circuit for selecting a consecutive sequence of reorder buffer entries using circular carry lookahead A enable circuit (700), employing a "circular carry lookahead" technique to increase its speed performance, is provided for applying two pointers to a circular buffer--an enabling pointer (tail (218)) and a disabling pointer (head (216))--and ... | 11/18/1997 |
