| 20110010005 | SYSTEM FOR ASSOCIATING INVENTORY WITH HANDLING EQUIPMENT IN SHIPPING CONTAINER YARD INVENTORY TRANSACTIONS - A system is provided to associate containers with handling equipment (HE) in a container storage facility. In the system an operation detector, such as a twistlock sensor that indicates when a container is picked up or dropped off, is installed on a first HE which is a piece of container handling equipment (CHE) that can lift the container. An event detector, such as a vibration sensor or distance measuring radar, is further installed on a second HE that is a tractor with an attached chassis for receiving and transporting a container. The event detector indicates when a container-operation-related event, such as a container pick up or drop off, occurred on the tractor chassis. The two detectors (operation and event) are used by a processor to associate the container with either the CHE or the tractor. The operation and event detectors can further be used in conjunction with position sensors such as a GPS sensor to accurately determine the position of the tractor and the CHE in a container yard. When the position sensors degrade in performance, an additional motion detector such as a speed sensor can be used to determine the tractor's distance from the CHE to locate an appropriate tractor involved in the operation. | 01-13-2011 |

| 20100259996 | System and method for providing low cost high endurance low voltage electrically erasable programmable read only memory - A system and method are disclosed for increasing the reliability of a channel erase procedure in an electrically erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM) memory cell. A memory cell of the present invention comprises a program gate, a control gate, and a floating gate that erase data using a channel erase procedure. An erase capacitor is coupled to the floating gate to provide a low voltage bias that decreases the voltage that is required to perform a Fowler-Nordheim erase process in the memory cell. The erase capacitor of the present invention is formed without adding a step in the manufacturing process of the memory cell. Memory cells of the present invention are low cost, high endurance, low voltage memory cells. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20100276740 | Method for fabricating higher quality thicker gate oxide in a non-volatile memory cell and associated circuits - A non-volatile memory cell includes a program transistor and a control capacitor. A portion of a substrate associated with the program transistor is exposed to multiple implantations (such as DNW, HiNWell, HiPWell, and P-well implantations). Similarly, a portion of the substrate associated with the control capacitor is exposed to multiple implantations (such as DNW, HiNWell, HiPWell, P-well, and N-well implantations). These portions of the substrate may have faster oxidation rates than other portions of the substrate, allowing a thicker front-end gate oxide to be formed over these portions of the substrate. In addition, a rapid thermal process anneal can be performed, which may reduce defects in the front-end gate oxide and increase its quality without having much impact on the oxide over the other portions of the substrate. | 11-04-2010 |
| 20110215419 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IMPROVING CMOS COMPATIBLE NON VOLATILE MEMORY RETENTION RELIABILITY - A system and method is disclosed for improving complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) compatible non volatile memory (NVM) retention reliability in memory cells. A memory cell of the invention comprises a backend layer that reduces charge leakage from a floating gate of the memory cell. A first bottom portion of the backend layer is formed from a first layer of silicon oxynitride having a low value of defect/trap density. A second top portion of the backend layer is formed from a second layer of silicon oxynitride having a high value of defect/trap density. The first layer of silicon oxynitride inhibits electron transport and the second layer of silicon oxynitride protects CMOS devices from plasma induced damage. | 09-08-2011 |
| 20110287596 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING LOW VOLTAGE HIGH DENSITY MULTI-BIT STORAGE FLASH MEMORY - A system and method is disclosed for providing a low voltage high density multi-bit storage flash memory. A dual bit memory cell of the invention comprises a substrate having a common source, a first drain and first channel, and a second drain and a second channel. A common control gate is located above the source. A first floating gate and a second floating gate are located on opposite sides of the control gate. Each floating gate is formed with a sharp tip adjacent to the control gate and an upper curved surface that follows a contour of the surface of the control gate. The sharp tips of the floating gates efficiently discharge electrons into the control gate when the memory cell is erased. The curved surfaces increase capacitor coupling between the control gate and the floating gates. | 11-24-2011 |
