Provided are a Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) tag with a signal reception method. The RFID tag includes a demodulator that receives a read signal containing read data. The demodulator includes; a voltage generating circuit that provides a first voltage signal and a second voltage signal derived from the received read signal, an inverter that provides a data pulse signal indicative of the read data by inverting the second voltage signal using an inverting voltage defined in relation to the first voltage signal, and a buffer that recovers the read data by buffering the data pulse signal.

An encryption processor, for storing encrypted data in a memory chip of a memory card, includes a FIFO memory for sequentially outputting m-bit data in response to a first signal, and an encryption key generator for generating m-bit encrypted keys (m being a positive integer) in response to a second signal and for sequentially outputting the keys in response to a third signal. A logic operator performs a logic operation on the data from the FIFO memory with the keys from the encryption key generator during a data write operation to sequentially encrypt the data. The logic operator performs a logic operation on the encrypted data received from a memory interface with the keys output from the encryption key generator during a data read operation in order to sequentially decode the encrypted data. The second signal is simultaneously generated with one of the write command or the read command.

A method of forming a T-shaped isolation layer, a method of forming an elevated salicide source/drain region using the same, and a semiconductor device having the T-shaped isolation layer are provided. In the method of forming the T-shaped isolation layer, an isolation layer having a narrow trench region in the lower portion thereof and a wide trench region in the upper portion thereof is formed on a semiconductor substrate. Also, in the method of forming the elevated salicide source/drain region, the method of forming the T-shaped isolation layer is used. In particular, conductive impurities can also be implanted into the lower portion of the wide trench region which constitutes the head of the T-shaped isolation layer and is extended to both sides from the upper end of the narrow trench region by controlling the depth of the wide trench region in an ion implantation step for forming the source/drain region.
