Flash-To-ROM Conversion

Flash-to-ROM conversion is performed by converting single transistor flash memory cells to single transistor ROM cells. An S-Flash memory cell is converted to a programmed ROM cell by introducing a threshold voltage implant into the channel region of the S-Flash memory cell. Alternately, an S-Flash memory cell is converted to a programmed ROM cell by introducing a threshold voltage implant into a substrate region in alignment with an edge of the gate electrode of the S-Flash memory cell. The width of the mask through which this threshold voltage implant is performed can be varied, such that the threshold voltage implant region can have different dopant concentrations, thereby allowing multiple bits to be represented by the programmed ROM cell. In another embodiment, a Y-flash memory cell is converted to a programmed ROM cell by adjusting the length of a floating gate extension region of the Y-Flash memory cell.

Rehabilitating pipe segment and existing pipe rehabilitation method using same

A rehabilitating pipe segment of the invention is comprised of first and second segment halves that are linked together to provide a variable-width segment. The first segment half has an internal surface plate, a convex plate extending parallel to the internal surface plate, and a side plate extending perpendicular to the internal surface plate.The second segment half has an internal surface plate, an internal plate extending parallel to the internal surface plate and forming a concavity, and a side plate extending perpendicular to the internal surface plate. The convex plate and a braking rubber are fitted into the concavity so as to link the first and second segment halves together to provide the variable-width segment. When tension of a specified amount or greater acts on the variable-width segment, the first and second segment halves move relative to each other in the pipe length direction against the braking force of the braking rubber. The rehabilitating pipe segment is used to assemble a rehabilitating pipe without loss of function even when under severe external impact and also assemble a curved rehabilitating pipe in a simple manner.
