As a result, the bumps of the chips are covered with the flux and are flattened, and after the holding head is returned to the original stage, the chips on the stage are extracted and mounted on the substrate by the mounting head.

A motherboard with reduced power consumption is disclosed. The motherboard has a memory module slot, a DDR termination array, and a control chip. The DDR termination array couples to the memory module slot and provides a termination resistor that has one terminal coupled to a voltage source. The control chip provides a control signal.

A switch and several termination resistors may substitute the DDR termination array as requirements. The control chip provides the control signal to open the switch and therefore cuts off the connections between termination resistors and the voltage source to achieve the power-conserving purpose.

The present invention provides a novel method of contoured-anatomy dose repositioning (CADR) as a means to automatically reposition a patient to better recover the planned dose distribution without reoptimize the treatment plan. Specifically, CADR utilizes planning CT images, the planned dose distribution, and on-line images for repositioning dose distribution on a given day. Contours are also placed upon the images using manual, automatic, template-based, or other techniques. CADR then optimizes the rigid-body repositioning of the patient so that the daily dose distribution closely matches the planned dose distribution. The present invention also provides a method of multiple-margin optimization with daily selection (MMODS) to improve radiation delivery without reoptimization. During the initial optimization procedure, plans are optimized for several margins of various contours (e.g., tight, medium, loose, etc.), or with different objectives (e.g., aggressive treatment, sensitive structure sparing, etc.). Similarly, if multiple patient image sets are available, plans can be optimized for the different anatomical layouts, either using current information, or accumulated information regarding the superposition of organ locations in the combination of images. A user can then choose in real time from a variety of optimized plans, generally with different margins, during the treatment process, and thereby compensate for a recognized change in size or position of the tumor or neighboring tissue.
