  • Patent number: 9165960
    Abstract: A pixel circuit, an active sensing array, a sensing device, and a driving method thereof are provided. The pixel circuit includes a sensing transistor, a reset transistor, and a storage capacitor. The sensing transistor is electrically connected to a sensing element and a data line. The reset transistor is electrically connected to a first scan line and the sensing transistor. The storage capacitor is electrically connected to the sensing transistor and a second scan line. During a compensation period, the reset transistor is turned on in response to a first scanning pulse from the first scan line, so that the sensing transistor is connected into a diode configuration, and the storage capacitor charges and discharges to a threshold voltage of the sensing transistor through the sensing transistor having the diode configuration in response to switching of a level of the data line.

  • Patent number: 8546764
    Abstract: The present invention provides an active X-ray sensing circuit and the sensing method thereof, it is applied in X-ray panel. The X-ray sensing circuit comprises two row of pixel circuit, and the two row of pixel circuit shares one scan line, and each data line connects with two switches. It is compensated the threshold voltage when it switches to the current source. It operates reading when it switches to amplifier. By applying specific scan line signal, the last-row pixel circuit is compensated and the next-row pixel row is read at the same time, so that the sensing circuit array can compensate and sense in one scan to avoid the effect of the leakage current.

  • Publication number: 20080276748
    Abstract: Gear shifter includes base plate having a bolt shaft which is in turn fitted in with a detent ring, a pawl, a lever, and a plate member. The detent ring is provided with interior space whose inner circumferential surface is formed with a series of first and second ratchet teeth. Side wall of the pawl is disposed with first catch tongue and second catch member. Lever is formed with movable ratchets engaged with second ratchet tooth. When user triggers the lever towards first direction, the movable ratchet is to actuate detent ring to rotate, and using the first catch tongue to abut against the first ratchet teeth, thus cable is pulled tightly wound. When the lever is triggered towards second direction, the lever will push the first catch tongue to disengage from abutting against the first ratchet tooth, thus making the detent ring rotating back to release the tight cable.
