  • Patent number: 7242149
    Abstract: A lamp driving circuit with a floating power supply driver includes a microcomputing unit, a floating power supply driver, and a driving unit. The microcomputing unit and the floating power supply driver are independent integrated circuits and manufactured under a normal voltage. The floating power supply driver is coupled to the microcomputing unit via two independent high-pressure coupling capacitors, instead of sharing the same ground with the microcomputing unit. The microcomputing unit and the floating power supply driver provide at least one low-voltage driving pulse output pin and one high-voltage driving pulse output pin to control the power transistor inside the driving unit. The power transistor turns on/off at appropriate time so that a lamp connected to the driving unit can be lit up by a driving high voltage.

  • Patent number: 7239230
    Abstract: A radar sensor for a vehicle and having a fine-tuning function includes a base forming a chamber to pivotably receive a sensor module. The sensor module can be adjusted in its pantoscopic angle and direction, so as to set a sensing range accurately. A packing block is configured at an inner wall of the chamber, which can be controlled by an adjustment part configured at a surface of the base. When an operator adjusts the sensor to an appropriate angle, the adjustment part at the surface of the base can pack the sensor, so as to achieve an objective securing the sensor module in a desired position.

  • Patent number: 7234230
    Abstract: A composite circuit board comprises multiple soft panels evenly mounted on a rigid panel. The soft panels are positioned on the rigid panel in proper alignment via locating pins on the rigid panel and corresponding holes in the soft panels. The soft panels are securely bonded to the rigid panel to form the composite circuit boards. The smaller size of the soft panels minimizes the alignment problems caused by the different heat expansion rates of the soft panel and the rigid panel.
