  • Publication number: 20240154517
    Abstract: A soft-switching power converter includes a main switch, an energy-releasing switch, and an inductive coupled unit. The main switch is a controllable switch. The energy-releasing switch is coupled to the main switch. The inductive coupled unit is coupled to the main switch and the energy-releasing switch. The inductive coupled unit includes a first inductance, a second inductance coupled to the first inductance, and an auxiliary switch unit. The auxiliary switch unit is coupled to the second inductance to form a closed loop. The main switch and the energy-releasing switch are alternately turned on and turned off. The auxiliary switch unit is controlled to start turning on before the main switch is turned on so as to provide at least one current path.

  • Patent number: 11955154
    Abstract: A sense amplifier circuit includes a sense amplifier, a switch and a temperature compensation circuit. The temperature compensation circuit provides a control signal having a positive temperature coefficient, based on which the switch provides reference impedance for temperature compensation. The sense amplifier includes a first input end coupled to a target bit and a second input end coupled to the switch. The sense amplifier outputs a sense amplifier signal based on the reference impedance and the impedance of the target bit.

  • Publication number: 20240113032
    Abstract: Interconnect structure packages (e.g., through silicon vias (TSV) packages, through interlayer via (TIV) packages) may be pre-manufactured as opposed to forming TIVs directly on a carrier substrate during a manufacturing process for a semiconductor die package at backend packaging facility. The interconnect structure packages may be placed onto a carrier substrate during manufacturing of a semiconductor device package, and a semiconductor die package may be placed on the carrier substrate adjacent to the interconnect structure packages. A molding compound layer may be formed around and in between the interconnect structure packages and the semiconductor die package.

  • Patent number: 11475585
    Abstract: An antenna adjustment device and an antenna adjustment method for a mobile vehicle, in which main structure includes the mobile vehicle having a directional antenna, a photographic element and an epipolar line analysis component. The epipolar line analysis component establishes data connection with the directional antenna and the photographic element. The photographic element includes a photographic part and an image receiving processing part. With the above structure, the user can use the photographic element with the directional antenna to define an epipolar line of optimal connection efficiency with the base station on the image receiving processing part. When the connection is needed, the mobile vehicle is moved for adjusting an image of the base station imaged by the image receiving processing part to align to the epipolar line, so as to get the optimal connection efficiency.

  • Patent number: 10403002
    Abstract: A method for transforming between physical and virtual images includes: disposing an image capturing device at a position that does not coincide with line-of-sight of a user; providing at least three physical distance references on the line-of-sight of the user at different distances from the user, and capturing images of the at least three physical distance references by the image capturing device so as to obtain an epipolar line formed by at least three virtual distance references corresponding respectively to the images; and obtaining a first relation by a computing unit according to a position corresponding relationship between the at least three physical distance references and the at least three virtual distance references. By using the image capturing device that is at a fixed position relative to the user and does not coincide with the line-of-sight of the user, the physical position of an object is obtained.

  • Patent number: 9990739
    Abstract: A method and device for fisheye camera automatic calibration is disclosed. A first straight line and a second straight line are respectively moved to generate a first fisheye line and a second fisheye line being straight lines. At least two symmetric points are generated on the second straight line based on an intersection of the first straight line and the second straight line as a symmetric central point, so as to correspondingly generate at least two fisheye symmetric points. The second straight line rotates until a distance between the first fisheye line and each of two fisheye symmetric points is equal. Then, central intersection coordinates, fisheye symmetric coordinates, a fisheye symmetric distance are retrieved and used to calculate fisheye parameters.
