  • Patent number: 7803009
    Abstract: A plug connector (100) includes an insulative housing (1) including a base portion (10) and a mating portion (12) extending from the base portion in a first mating direction, a number of contacts (2) received in the insulative housing, a circuit board (6) with a plurality of through holes (620) therein, and a number of wires (3) comprising a number of signal wires (31) and a number of power wires (32) respectively electrically connecting with the contacts. The contacts comprise a number of signal contacts (23) and a number of power contacts (21), the signal contacts are soldered with the circuit board. The signal wires are flatly soldered on the circuit board, the power wires are soldered with the contacts directly or electrically connected with the contacts by the circuit board. The signal wires are arranged to extend laterally along a second direction perpendicular to a first mating direction, the power wires are arranged to extend along a third direction perpendicular to the second direction.

  • Patent number: 7798669
    Abstract: A remotely adjustable lighting device configured to an operational mode customized for the geographic location of the device. The lighting device is powered by a battery provided with solar charging. The lighting device, under control of an integral controller, is turned off and on for an illumination period as a function of both local sunrise and sunset times determined by a combination of time and date information and GPS positioning. The luminosity of the lighting device is autonomously controlled as a function of battery charge and the determined required illumination period. The solar charging system is oriented by the controller to optimize its energy collection by periodical adjustments.

  • Publication number: 20100080387
    Abstract: The present invention provides a portable memory, comprising: a key storage unit for storing a register key for the portable memory; a key receiving unit for receiving a first key entered by a user and generating a second key based on the first key; an identification unit for comparing the second key with the register key to obtain a comparison result; a key generation unit for generating an encryption/decryption key if the comparison result indicates that the second key matches the register key; a chip for encrypting/decrypting a data stream exchanged between a computer and the portable memory by using the encryption/decryption key. The portable memory constitutes a system itself, and thus can perform encryption/decryption operations independent of external systems, resulting in a reduced cost. The present invention also provides a method of encrypting a portable memory.
