Abstract:
Methods and apparatus relating to self-referencing pins are described. In one embodiment, a pin electrically couples a first agent to a second agent. The pin includes two or more portions that are at least partially separated by an insulator, e.g., to improve crosstalk performance. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
Abstract:
The present invention prevents, when a COF which is connected with an external circuit is bent in a flat display device, the disconnection of lines on the COF. At a position where a line of the COF is connected to terminal portions of a TFT, and the line having a large width is branched into lines having a small width T1 to T3 or T4 to T6. By displacing line branching positions from each other as indicated by an arrow A and an arrow B, when the COF is bent or deformed, stress applied to the line branching positions can be dispersed thus preventing the disconnection of lines.
Abstract:
A microcomputer provided on a rectangular semiconductor board has memory interface circuits. The memory interface circuits are separately disposed in such positions as to extend along the peripheries of the semiconductor board on both sides from one corner as a reference position. In this case, limitations to size reduction imposed on the semiconductor board can be reduced compared with a semiconductor board having memory interface circuits only on one side. Respective partial circuits on each of the separated memory interface circuits have equal data units associated with data and data strobe signals. Thus, the microcomputer has simplified line design on a mother board and on a module board.
Abstract:
Even in an electronic device where electrodes are coupled electrically using a solder, sections to which electrodes of an electronic component are coupled are switched by a method other than changing circuits of the electronic component or changing circuits of a wiring substrate.The electronic device includes: a wiring substrate having two or more first electrodes over one surface thereof; and an electronic component having, over one surface thereof, two or more second electrodes arranged corresponding to the two or more first electrodes, respectively. At least one of the first electrodes is a specific electrode divided into two or more divided portions, and the divided portions are coupled to different wirings, respectively. Further, at least one of the divided portions is coupled to a corresponding second electrode through a solder.
