2260results about How to "Improve manufacturing yield" patented technology

Methods and apparatus are described for capacitively signaling between different semiconductor chips and modules without the use of connectors, solder bumps, wire-bond interconnections or the like. Preferably, pairs of half-capacitor plates, one half located on each chip, module or substrate are used to capacitively couple signals from one chip, module or substrate to another. The use of plates relaxes the need for high precision alignment as well as reduces the area needed to effect signaling, and reduces or eliminates the requirements for exotic metallurgy.

An array substrate includes plural scanning lines (111); a thin film transistor (112) having a first dielectric film (115), (117), a semiconductor film (120) thereon, and a source electrode (126b) electrically coupled to the semiconductor film (120) and a drain electrode (126a); a signal line (110) as taken out of the drain electrode (126a) to extend at substantially right angles to the scanning lines (111); and a pixel electrode (131) electrically connected to the source electrode (126b), wherein the pixel electrode (131) is electrically connected to the source electrode (126b) through a second dielectric film (127) as disposed on at least the signal line (110) while the pixel electrode (131) overlaps an elongate region (113) from its neighboring scanning line (111) through the first and second dielectric films (115), (117), (127). With such an arrangement, an appropriate storage capacitor can be formed by causing the scanning lines and pixel electrode to overlap each other without having to decrease the manufacturing yield while enabling achievement of high aperture ratio.
