  • Patent number: 7843274
    Abstract: A phase lock loop apparatus is disclosed. The phase lock loop apparatus comprises a phase detecting module, a logic processing module, a charge pump and loop filter (CPLF), and a voltage control oscillator. The phase detecting module detects the phase difference between an input data signal and a clock signal to generate a first index signal. The logic processing module performs a high-frequency dithering process to the first index signal to generate a second index signal. The CPLF adjusts a control voltage according to the first index signal and the second index signal, and outputs the adjusted control voltage. The voltage control oscillator adjusts the frequency or phase of the clock signal and outputs the adjusted clock signal to the phase detecting module. The frequency of the second index signal is equal to or larger than the frequency of the first index signal.

  • Publication number: 20090144668
    Abstract: A sensing apparatus is disclosed. The sensing apparatus comprises a first image capturing module, a second image capturing module, a calculating module, and a controlling module. The first image capturing module and the second image capturing module capture a first image and a second image related to a plurality of objects respectively at a specific time. The calculating module obtains a 3-D position of an object according to the first image and the second image and obtains a 3-D displacement of the object according to the 3-D position and a former 3-D position of the object. If any one of 3-D displacements corresponding to the objects is approximately vertical, the controlling module controls an electrical apparatus to perform a first function. If a weighting average of approximately horizontal vector components of all 3-D displacements meets a condition, the controlling module controls the electrical apparatus to perform a second function.
