  • Patent number: 9291115
    Abstract: A vehicle idle-speed warning system and vehicle idle-speed detection method thereof are provided. It is non-invasive, that is, there is no need to change or modify any part of the constructing parts in the engine compartment. The present invention can be adopted stand-alone, or be applied to existing popular apparatuses, such as GPS, driving recorders, smart handheld devices, and vehicle electronic equipments. With the composing elements of a motion information module, an input module, an output module, a timer module and an information processing module, the present invention can accurately determine whether the vehicle under surveillance is in idle state and for how long it is in the idle state, and send an alarm signal automatically. With the implementation of the present invention, drivers can always be alarmed with the vehicle idling situations to prevent possible dangers or coming tickets due to the violation of traffic regulations in certain countries.

  • Patent number: 8274794
    Abstract: A three-dimensional SoC structure formed by stacking multiple chip modules is provided. The three-dimensional SoC structure includes at least two vertical SoC modules and at least one connector module, wherein each connector module electrically connects two vertical SoC modules. Each vertical SoC module is constructed by stacking at least two chip modules vertically. Each chip module includes a module circuit board and at least one preset element. A recess is formed in each module circuit board and provided with a first connecting interface for electrically connecting with the corresponding at least one preset element. The at least two vertical SoC modules are connected by the connector module to form a three-dimensional SoC structure with multiple functions. Besides, the recesses formed in the module circuit boards provide effective heat dissipation paths for the preset elements.

  • Patent number: 8199510
    Abstract: A multi-layer system-on-chip (SoC) module structure is provided. The multi-layer SoC module structure includes at least two circuit board module layers and at least one connector module layer. Each connector module layer is sandwiched between and thus electrically connects two circuit board module layers such that the SoC module structure is formed by stacking. Each circuit board module layer is composed of at least one circuit board module while each connector module layer is composed of at least one connector module. Hence, the SoC module structure can be manufactured as a three-dimensional structure, thus allowing highly flexible connections within the SoC module structure.

  • Patent number: 8172622
    Abstract: A socket structure stack and a socket structure thereof are provided. The socket structure stack includes at least two socket structures, and each socket structure includes a main body, a plurality of conductive elements, and a plurality of connecting elements. The main body includes an inner plate and an outer plate, wherein the inner plate has a receiving portion and an embedded portion. The conductive elements are embedded in the embedded portion, and the connecting elements are mounted on the outer plate so as to connect adjacent socket structures together. The socket structures are so configured that ICs, processors, and printed circuit boards connected to the socket structures or the socket structures themselves can be recycled. Moreover, the printed circuit boards can be easily assembled to the socket structures, and the socket structures can be stacked up and securely connected to form a 3D structure which is otherwise difficult to put together by soldering.

  • Publication number: 20100330741
    Abstract: A fabrication method for a system-on-chip (SoC) module is provided. The fabrication method includes the steps of providing at least two SoC sub-modules and connecting the SoC sub-modules. The SoC sub-modules are electrically connected with each other by connection interfaces of the SoC sub-modules so as to form the SoC module. As the SoC sub-modules have been verified in advance, the time required for verifying the resulting SoC module can be significantly reduced. As for application-specific SoC modules, they are fabricated by connecting with application-specific SoC sub-modules via the appropriate connection interfaces. Thus, the time and costs for developing SoC modules can both be minimized.
