Cell operation methods using gate-injection for floating gate nand flash memory
ActiveUS20080080248A1Low gate coupling ratioLower ratioSolid-state devicesRead-only memoriesOn cellsCoupling ratio
A method of performing an operation on a flash memory cell device, used when a gate coupling ratio between a floating gate and a control gate of less than 0.4. A potential is required to be applied across the control gate. Electrons are either injected to the floating gate from the control gate or ejected from the floating gate to the control gate. The operation associated with the injection or the ejection is determined by the nature of a silicon channel provided in the device. Devices using a bulk-tied FinFET-like structure are particularly suited to this method. The method is also particularly suited for use on cells in a NAND array.

Method for Selectively Enabling and Disabling Read Caching in a Storage Subsystem
InactiveUS20090037662A1Improve performanceLow cache hit ratioMemory adressing/allocation/relocationCache hit rateWorkload
A mechanism for selectively disabling and enabling read caching based on past performance of the cache and current read / write requests. The system improves overall performance by using an autonomic algorithm to disable read caching for regions of backend disk storage (i.e., the backstore) that have had historically low cache hit ratios. The result is that more cache becomes available for workloads with larger hit ratios, and less time and machine cycles are spent searching the cache for data that is unlikely to be there.

A logic circuit includes a thin film transistor having a channel formation region formed using an oxide semiconductor, and a capacitor having terminals one of which is brought into a floating state by turning off the thin film transistor. The oxide semiconductor has a hydrogen concentration of 5×1019 (atoms / cm3) or less and thus substantially serves as an insulator in a state where an electric field is not generated. Therefore, off-state current of a thin film transistor can be reduced, leading to suppressing the leakage of electric charge stored in a capacitor, through the thin film transistor. Accordingly, a malfunction of the logic circuit can be prevented. Further, the excessive amount of current which flows in the logic circuit can be reduced through the reduction of off-state current of the thin film transistor, resulting in low power consumption of the logic circuit.

The microphone system of the invention executes an adaptive filter processing by using output signals from two microphones to output a speaker's voice signal with an improved SN ratio, in which the two microphones are laid out close to each other, and the angles formed by the orientations of the microphones with respect to the speaker's vocalizing direction are made different for each of the microphones. For example, the microphones are mounted on the sun visor of a vehicle, or on the ceiling above the front passenger seat or the driver's seat of the vehicle, with the orientations of the microphones differentiated. Further, the SN ratio of the output signal from one microphone is raised, and the SN ratio of the output signal from the other microphone is lowered. For example, one microphone is positioned right above a speaker's face, and the other microphone is spaced apart on the occipital side by about 1 to 5 cm from the position of the first microphone. Thus, the microphone system improves the SN ratio of the voice signal.
