| 20100017452 | MEMORY-BASED FFT/IFFT PROCESSOR AND DESIGN METHOD FOR GENERAL SIZED MEMORY-BASED FFT PROCESSOR - For a large size FFT computation, this invention decomposes it into several smaller sizes FFT by decomposition equation and then transform the original index from one dimension into multi-dimension vector. By controlling the index vector, this invention could distribute the input data into different memory banks such that both the in-place policy for computation and the multi-bank memory for high-radix structure could be supported simultaneously without memory conflict. Besides, in order to keep memory conflict-free when the in-place policy is also adopted for I/O data, this invention reverses the decompose order of FFT to satisfy the vector reverse behavior. This invention can minimize the area and reduce the necessary clock rate effectively for general sized memory-based FFT processor design. | 01-21-2010 |

| 20120061059 | COOLING MECHANISM FOR STACKED DIE PACKAGE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME - An apparatus for cooling a stacked die package comprises a first die provided above a substrate; a second die above the first die; a cooling fluid in fluid communication with the first die and the second die, the cooling fluid for absorbing thermal energy from the first and the second die; a housing containing the first and second dies, the housing sealing the first and second dies from an environment, wherein the housing further includes a first opening and a second opening, the first and second openings being vertically displaced from one another; a conduit having one end connected to the first opening and the other end connected to the second opening, the conduit allowing the cooling liquid to circulate from the first opening to the second opening; a first temperature sensor being arranged to provide an output that is dependent on a local temperature at the first opening; and a second temperature sensor being arranged to provide an output that is dependent on a local temperature at the second opening, wherein the outputs of the first and second temperature sensors relative to each other are indicative of a level of the cooling fluid. | 03-15-2012 |
| 20120063090 | COOLING MECHANISM FOR STACKED DIE PACKAGE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME - An apparatus for cooling a stacked die package comprises a substrate, a first die above the substrate, a second die above the first die, and a housing containing the first and second dies. The housing seals the first and second dies from the environment. The apparatus further includes a cooling fluid in fluid communication with the first die and the second die to transfer the heat from the dies to the housing. | 03-15-2012 |

| 20090161431 | BUILT-IN SELF-REPAIR METHOD FOR NAND FLASH MEMORY AND SYSTEM THEREOF - A built-in self-test system applied to NAND flash memory comprises a built-in self-test circuit, a built-in redundancy-analysis circuit, a content addressable memory, a spare memory, a page-mode processor and an address generator. The built-in self-test circuit is configured to test for defective data in a NAND flash memory. The built-in redundancy-analysis circuit is connected to the built-in self-test circuit. The content addressable memory is connected to the built-in redundancy-analysis circuit for storing the address of the defective data. The spare memory is electrically connected to the content addressable memory. The page-mode processor is configured to generate a page address signal and a compensation signal according to an address signal of the NAND flash memory. The address generator is configured to generate a current address signal according to the page address signal and compensation signal to the content addressable memory. | 06-25-2009 |
| 20100281341 | NON-VOLATILE MEMORY MANAGEMENT METHOD - A management method for a non-volatile memory comprises the steps of providing the non-volatile memory with at least one block having a plurality of pages to store user data and parity data; dividing at least one of the pages into a plurality of partitions each including the user data and parity data; determining codeword length of each of the partitions, the codeword length comprising message length with sufficient storage to store the user data and parity length storing the parity data; and storing extra parity data in the partition with the codeword length. When storing extra parity data in the codeword length, the parity length is increased and the message length is decreased. | 11-04-2010 |
