Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080246491Scalable method for identifying cracks and fractures under wired or ball bonded bond pads - In a method and system for testing a presence of a crack (10-09-2008
20090039524METHODS AND APPARATUS TO SUPPORT AN OVERHANGING REGION OF A STACKED DIE - Methods and apparatus to support an overhanging region of stacked die are disclosed. A disclosed method comprises bonding a first die onto a substrate, placing a support element on the substrate; and bonding a second die onto the first die, wherein the second die overhangs at least one edge of the first die and the support element is positioned to limit bending of the second die.02-12-2009
20090189299METHOD OF FORMING A PROBE PAD LAYOUT/DESIGN, AND RELATED DEVICE - A method of forming a probe pad layout/design, and related device. At least some of the illustrative embodiments are methods comprising testing a semiconductor device by electrically contacting a first portion of a semiconductor die by way of a first pad within a scribe street adjacent to the semiconductor die, and electrically contacting a second portion of the semiconductor die by way of a first bond pad within the semiconductor die.07-30-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080218986Increased Stand-Off Height Integrated Circuit Assemblies, Systems, and Methods - Disclosed are integrated circuit assemblies with increased stand-off height and methods and systems for their manufacture. Methods of the invention provide for assembling a semiconductor device by aligning a die with a substrate and interposing solder between corresponding substrate and die bond pads. A lifting force is applied to the die during heating of the solder to a liquescent state, thereby increasing the stand-off height of the die above the substrate. The lifting force is maintained during cooling of the solder to a solid state, thereby forming increased stand-off height solder connections.09-11-2008
20090166810Semiconductor Device Crack-Deflecting Structure and Method - The invention relates to microelectronic semiconductor devices, and to mass-production of the same on semiconductor wafers with novel crack-deflecting structures and methods. According to the invention, a semiconductor device includes an active circuit area surrounded by an inactive area and circumscribed with a bulwark having a crack-deflecting face oriented toward the periphery of the device. Embodiments of the invention are disclosed, in which a semiconductor device, or multiple devices on a wafer, include bulwarks having series of minor arcs with their chords oriented toward the peripheries of the devices. Additional embodiments of the invention described include bulwarks having series of right angles oriented toward the peripheries of the devices. Examples of the invention also include preferred embodiments wherein the bulwarks further comprise series of discrete pickets, parallel bulwarks, and bulwarks in combination with scribe seals.07-02-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100134794ANALYZER FOR DETERMINING THE CONCENTRATION, POTENCY AND PURITY OF PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOUNDS - A computer facilitated method of requesting a spectral analysis of a sample having an unknown concentration or purity, performing an energy absorption analysis of the sample to obtain spectral data regarding the analysis and comparing the spectral data to stored spectral data regarding the analyses of the samples having a predetermined concentration and purity to determine the concentration or purity of the sample having an unknown concentration or purity. The spectral analysis is performed on site where the sample is prepared or administered using a portable analytical apparatus and provides a real time report of the concentration or purity of the sample. The apparatus requires only a small sample size.06-03-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080205679In-Ear Auditory Device and Methods of Using Same - An in-ear auditory device and methods of using same. The in-ear auditory device has a receiver sized to fit within an ear canal of a user, a transducer and an isolator disposed to substantially acoustically isolate the transducer from the receiver. The in-ear auditory device may include a bone vibration sensor acoustically or mechanically coupled to the transducer to detect the user's speech. The in-ear auditory device can further include a physiologic sensor to sense physiologic signals of the user. In use, the in-ear auditory device is coupled to an auxiliary device having circuitry to process signals to and from the in-ear auditory device. The auxiliary device may include wireless communication circuitry to communicate signals to and from remote communication or monitoring devices.08-28-2008
