Abstract: A Bluetooth pairing system includes an external device and a host device. The external device includes a Bluetooth module, a first transmission interface and a USB controller. When the external device is connected with the host device, a standard handshaking message complying with a USB communication protocol is issued from the processor to the external device. After the standard handshaking message is received by the USB controller of the external device, a device descriptor of the external device is transmitted from the USB controller to the host device. The device descriptor contains a vendor identification code, a product identification code, a product string and a product type of the external device and a target communication address of the Bluetooth module. The host device analyzes the device descriptor to acquire the target communication address of the Bluetooth module.

Abstract: A luminous keyboard with a gaming function includes a gaming program, plural keys, plural light-emitting elements and a control unit. When one of the plural keys is pressed down, a corresponding pressing signal is generated. When one of the plural light-emitting elements is turned on to emit a light beam, the corresponding key is illuminated. The control unit is connected with the plural keys, the plural light-emitting elements and the gaming program. The control unit turns on or turns off the plural light-emitting elements according to settings of the gaming program. Alternatively, the control unit turns off the light-emitting element corresponding to the illuminated key when the control unit receives the pressing signal corresponding to the illuminated key. In such way, the luminous keyboard can be used to play a game.

Abstract: A keyboard device with a touch control function is provided. The keyboard device includes plural keys, plural first touch detectors, a second touch detector, and a controlling unit. The plural first touch detectors arranged in a row and located under a space key. The second touch detector is located under a neighboring key around the space key. If the space key and the neighboring key around the space key are sequentially touched by the user, the controlling unit sequentially receives plural first touch signal and a second touch signal. Consequently, the controlling unit issues a touch command to a computer host. Consequently, for generating the touch command, it is not necessary to change the customary gesture of the user of operating the keyboard device.

Abstract: A touchpad controlling method and a touch device using such a method are provided. The touch device is applied to an electronic appliance. The touch device includes a touchpad and a coordinate transformation program. The touchpad is used for detecting a number of touching points in response to the touching gesture on the touchpad and the position of each touching point. If the number of touching points is equal to 1, the electronic appliance is operated in a relative coordinate mode. Whereas, if the number of touching points is greater than 1, the electronic appliance is operated in an absolute coordinate mode.

Abstract: An improved process for producing a piezoelectric ceramic device is disclosed, wherein the process includes the following steps: securing a metal plate in a mold cavity body by maintaining a binding area on a top surface of the metal plate, and that the top surface other than the binding area is enveloped, confined and secured; coating a metal paste on the binding area; placing a piezoelectric ceramic powder on the metal paste; pressing a pressing pillar on the piezoelectric ceramic powder; securing the pressing pillar in position; heating the mold cavity body so as to sinter the piezoelectric ceramic powder as a sintered body, and heating the mold cavity body so as to treat the sintered body to become a not-yet polarized piezoelectric ceramic sheet. Therefore, the same mold is employed for the piezoelectric ceramic powder sintering, the heat treatment, and the positioning and binding to the metal plate.
