Abstract:
An image sensing module includes an image sensor chip. The image sensor chip has a first surface and an image sensing area on the first surface, where the image sensing area is utilized for sensing light rays illuminating thereon. The image sensor chip includes a plurality of input/output (I/O) terminals and a plurality of power/ground terminals outside the image sensing area on the first surface, where the I/O terminals are utilized for inputting/outputting signals. The image sensing module further includes a printed circuit board (PCB) having a first surface opposite the first surface of the image sensor chip and having an opening corresponding to the image sensing area, where the image sensing area is aligned within the opening. The image sensing module further includes a light transmissible cover bonded to a second surface of the PCB for covering the opening to protect the image sensing area.
Abstract:
A discrete circuit component is made from a substrate with the first and second surfaces thereof each having a corresponding matrix of electrically conductive segments. A plated through-hole connects each of the conductive segments of each the first and second conductive segments electrically. The through-hole is first clogged and then subsequently cleared of clogging in the fabrication stages.
Abstract:
A film deposition apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus comprises: a reaction chamber, a susceptor, a heating module, a driving module, and a cooling module. The susceptor is used for bearing at least one wafer; the heating module is used for heating the wafer; the driving module is used for driving the susceptor to rotate.

The cooling module is configured to make the temperature distribution between the heating module and the driving module discontinuous.
Abstract:
System and method for forming one or more layers of one or more materials on one or more substrates. The system includes a rotating shell, a susceptor component supported by the rotating shell, and a driving component below the susceptor component and configured to drive the rotating shell and the susceptor component to rotate around a susceptor axis. Additionally, the system includes one or more holder gears located on the susceptor component and configured to rotate around the susceptor axis with the susceptor component and support the one or more substrates, and a central gear engaged to the one or more holder gears and configured to cause the one or more holder gears to rotate around one or more holder axes respectively if the one or more holder gears rotate around the susceptor axis. The susceptor axis is different from the one or more holder axes.
Abstract:
A system for forming one or more layers of material on one or more substrates is described. The system includes a vacuum chamber and a showerhead located in the vacuum chamber. A door in a wall of the vacuum chamber allows for loading and unloading of the one or more substrates in the vacuum chamber while under vacuum. A drive mechanism coupled to the showerhead moves the showerhead between a first position and a second position while under vacuum. In the first position, the showerhead is positioned to allow access to the door for loading and unloading of the one or more substrates through the door. In the second position, the showerhead is positioned to inhibit access to the door inside the vacuum chamber.
Abstract:
A system for forming one or more layers of material on one or more substrates is disclosed. The system includes a susceptor that rotates around a central susceptor axis. One or more holder gears are located on the susceptor. The holder gears may rotate around the central susceptor axis with the susceptor. A central gear engaged to the holder gears may cause the holder gears to rotate around holder axes of the respective holder gears while the holder gears rotate around the central susceptor axis. The susceptor and the central gear may rotate independently.

Abstract:
A gas-exhausting module for a multichamber thin-film deposition apparatus, which has one or more reactor chambers, includes a collecting chamber and a plurality of gas pipes. The collecting chamber includes an upper portion and a lower portion. The cross-sectional area of the lower portion is less than the cross-sectional area of the upper portion. One end of each gas pipe communicates with one of the reactor chambers. The other end of each gas pipe communicates with the upper portion in a tangential direction. During operation, a cyclonic airflow is provided within the collecting chamber to uniformly extract the exhaust gas from each reactor chamber.
Abstract:
A wire spool with color identification includes an axial tube, a first flange extending from a first end of the axial tube, and a second flange extending from a second end of the axial tube. The wire spool is characterized in that the first flange has at least one depression coated with a color layer. Thus, the color layer is not easy to peel and the cost of manufacturing the wire spool can be reduced.
Abstract:
A method for fabricating metal bonding for a semiconductor circuit component employing prescribed feed of metal ball is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of, first, placing a metal ball at the metallization site on the surface of the circuit die of the component; then, melting the metal ball on the site; and subsequently solidifying the molten metal and forming a metal bump at the site. A circuit die having formed with one or more metal bumps can then be made into a circuit component featuring stable and reliable electrical leads and suitable to be utilized as large power rating yet with reduced component size in electronic equipment.
