20090160457 | CIRCUIT FOR THE DETECTION OF SOLDER-JOINT FAILURES IN A DIGITAL ELECTRONIC PACKAGE - The solder-joint integrity of digital electronic packages, such as FPGAs or microcontrollers that have internally connected input/output buffers, is evaluated by applying a time-varying voltage through one or more solder-joint networks to charge a charge-storage component. Each network includes an I/O buffer on the die in the package and a solder-joint connection, typically one or more such connections inside the package and between the package and a board. The time constant for charging the component is proportional to the resistance of the solder-joint network, hence the voltage across the charge-storage component is a measurement of the integrity of the solder-joint network. | 06-25-2009 |

20110166691 | METHOD OF MONITORING THE CLEAN/RINSE/DRY PROCESSES OF PATTERNED WAFERS USING AN ELECTRO-CHEMICAL RESIDUE SENSOR (ECRS) - A method of improving the clean, rinse and dry processes during the manufacture of ICs, MEMS and other micro-devices to conserve solution and energy while completing the process within a specified time. An electro-chemical residue sensor (ECRS) provides in-situ and real-time measurement of residual contamination on a surface or inside void micro features within the sensor representative of conditions on production wafers. The measured impedance can be used to determine what process variables and specifically how process conditions affect the rate of change of the measured impedance. The in-situ measurements are used to design and optimize a production process and/or to monitor the production run in real-time to control the process conditions and transfer of a patterned wafer through the processes. | 07-07-2011 |

20080270622 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR OPTIMIZING POWER CONSUMPTION AND REDUCING MIPS REQUIREMENTS FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATION - The present invention discloses a system and a methodology for enhancing performance during wireless communications by reducing system latency, MIPS requirements and power consumption. The present invention discloses a system and method of wireless data communication in which part of upper layer stack processing is performed on a controller to relieve a host processor of some data intensive operations. After the initial connection establishment phase in which the controller retrieves certain information required for data transmission and stores the same locally, the data source provides data directly to the controller without routing the data through the host. The host is relieved of the data processing that needs to be done while the data is being transferred. Hence, the overall latency of the system is improved because of the optimal routing of data traffic. The host can even go to lower power modes while the controller is performing the data operations on behalf of the upper layer stack thereby saving power consumption of the overall system. | 10-30-2008 |
