Abstract: An antenna apparatus includes a feeding antenna inside an electronic device and one or more antenna elements, such as a floating metal antenna, disposed on a rear cover of the electronic device. The floating metal antenna and a feeding antenna inside the electronic device may form a coupling antenna structure. The feeding antenna may be an antenna fastened on an antenna support (which may be referred to as a support antenna). The feeding antenna may alternatively be a slot antenna formed by slitting on a metal middle frame of the electronic device. The antenna apparatus may be implemented in limited design space, thereby effectively saving antenna design space inside the electronic device. The antenna apparatus may generate excitation of a plurality of resonance modes, so that antenna bandwidth and radiation characteristics can be improved.

Abstract: A level shifter includes a cross-coupled transistor pair, first through third cascode transistor pairs and a differential input pair sequentially coupled in series, and further includes a sub level shifter. The first cascode transistor pair is controlled by a first reference voltage. The second cascode transistor pair is controlled by a pair of differential control voltages. The third cascode transistor pair is controlled by a second reference voltage lower than the first reference voltage.

The sub level shifter generates the differential control voltages according to the differential input voltages and the first and second reference voltages. The differential control voltages are switched between the first and second reference voltages. The level shifter outputs a pair of differential output voltages through inverted and non-inverted output terminals coupled with the second cascode transistor pair.

The cholesteric liquid crystal display comprises a display panel and a micro processing unit. First, a grayscale threshold value needs to be set in advance.

Then the micro processing unit drives the display image in the PWM drive mode, which can greatly improve the color level and contrast display effect of the image.

Thereby, the crosstalk phenomenon on the cholesteric liquid crystal display device can be improved.

Abstract: Disclosures of the present invention describe a plant light raising and lowering apparatus. Particularly, a control module is configured for controlling a rope winch to complete at least one inching rotation along a clockwise direction or a counterclockwise direction, such that a base is driven by the rope winch so as to have an upward inching movement or a downward inching movement. Moreover, a counter is adopted for counting the direction, times and/or frequency of the inching rotation, and therefore the control module is able to know a total moving distance of the base by using the inching movement recording unit to record each time of the upward inching movement and each time of the downward inching movement. Therefore, a user is able to control the base to move back to a specific position such as an initial position or a previously-staying position.
