    Abstract: A method for forming a BICMOS integrated circuit having MOS field-effect devices and bipolar junction transistors formed in a silicon substrate is disclosed. The process comprises the steps of first defining separate active areas in a substrate for each of the transistors. Next, a gate dielectric layer is formed over the surface of the wafer. Above the gate dielectric, a first layer of polysilicon is deposited. This first layer of polysilicon is then selectively etched to form a plurality of first polysilicon members each of which is equally-spaced apart from one another. The polysilicon members comprise the gates of the MOS transistors and the extrinsic base contacts of the NPN transistors. After the first polysilicon members have been defined, the base regions of the NPN transistors are formed. After insulating the first polysilicon members, an additional layer of polysilicon is deposited over the substrate to replanarize the entire wafer surface. The additional layer of polysilicon is then etched to form a plurality of second polysilicon members which are electrically isolated from the first polysilicon members. Impurities are diffused from the polysilicon members into the substrate to form the source/drain regions of the MOS transistors, and the extrinsic base and emitter regions of the NPN transistors. The final processing steps include those required for the interconnection of the MOS and NPN transistors.

    Abstract: A non-volatile, static magnetic memory device, whose operation is based on the Hall effect, is disclosed. The device includes a magnetic patch which stores data in the form of a magnetic field, a semiconductor Hall bar and a pair of integrally-formed bipolar transistors used for amplifying and buffering the Hall voltage produced along the Hall bar. Current is forced to flow down the length of the Hall bar causing a Hall voltage to be developed in a direction transverse to the direction of both the magnetic field and the current. The bases of the bipolar transistors are ohmically coupled to the Hall bar to sense the Hall voltage--the polarity of which is representative of the stored information. A system of current carrying conductors is employed for writing data to individual magnetic patches.

    Abstract: A virtual memory system including a local-to-global virtual address translator for translating local virtual addresses having associated task specific address spaces into global virtual addresses corresponding to an address space associated with multiple tasks, and a global virtual-to-physical address translator for translating global virtual addresses to physical addresses. Protection information is provided by each of the local virtual-to-global virtual address translator, the global virtual-to-physical address translator, the cache tag storage, or a protection information buffer depending on whether a cache bit or miss occurs during a given data or instruction access. The cache is configurable such that it can be configured into a buffer portion or a cache portion for faster cache accesses.
