The duty-cycle repeater adjusts the duty cycle of the differential input signal and accordingly generates a differential output signal with 50% duty cycle.

The comparing unit determines whether the data difference is more than or equal to 0 and outputs a determining result. The quantifying unit quantifies the numeral of the data difference. The encoding unit encodes the numeral of the data difference with or without the sign according to the determining result.

Abstract: A wireless data transmitted method is disclosed. Firstly, a carrier block is displayed. Then, color of the displayed carrier block is modulated in accordance with data to be transmitted. The data is transmitted by capturing an image of the displayed carrier block. The captured carrier block is recognized and the color thereof is calibrated. Finally, the transmitted data is obtained by demodulating the color of the captured carrier block.

Abstract: An outer operational device includes a cover mounted to a side of a door. An actuating member is mounted in the cover and includes an end engaged with a handle to rotate therewith. A driving member is pivotably received in the cover and includes a wing. A link includes an upper end pivotably coupled with the wing and a lower end pivotably coupled with an end of the actuating member. A driving rod is coupled with the driving member and operably connected to a latch of a lock mounted in the door, so that rotation of the handle causes retraction of the latch.

Abstract: A mortise lock includes a case having first and second sidewalls. A follower plate is pivotably mounted in the case and actuatable by a key-operable cylinder to move a latch bolt from an extended position to a retracted position.
