  • Publication number: 20180013343
    Abstract: A circuit includes a first circuit that operates at a first-circuit supply voltage value and generates at least one of a first reference voltage value or a second reference voltage value, based on a voltage rated for transistors in a second circuit. The second circuit operates at the first-circuit supply voltage value and receives a first signal and at least one of the first reference voltage value or the second reference voltage value. The first signal is configured to swing between a low voltage value and a high voltage value lower than the first-circuit supply voltage value. The second circuit keeps a voltage across two terminals of a first transistor in the second circuit below the voltage rated for the first transistor, based on the at least one of the first reference voltage value or the second voltage value.

  • Publication number: 20140012943
    Abstract: A method and a storage apparatus for switching a data transmission path to transmit data are provided. The storage apparatus comprises a storage element, an interface connector, a connector control interface connected with the storage element and the interface connector, a wireless transmission module, and an apparatus controller connected with the storage element and the wireless transmission module. In the method, the apparatus controller receives a connection request from a remote apparatus by using the wireless transmission module, and accordingly transmits an inquiry message to the remote apparatus to ask whether to establish a wireless data transmission path. When a confirmation message returned from the remote apparatus is received, the apparatus controller closes the connector control interface and establishes a wireless data transmission path to provide the remote apparatus to access the data in the storage element.
