  • Patent number: 9361258
    Abstract: A common interface (CI)/conditional access (CA) module is used to transmit a conditional access data/command and a transport stream in an interleaving manner between a common interface card and an integrated circuit module having a conditional access module. With the aid of the CI/CA module, a same port can be shared for transmitting the conditional access data/command and the transport stream, instead of using two different and separated ports.

  • Patent number: 9329453
    Abstract: Analog front-end circuits and methods for configuring analog front-end circuits to improve accuracy of optical pulse energy digitizers are disclosed. More specifically, an analog front-end circuit in accordance with the inventive concepts disclosed herein may be configured to reduce a pulse repetition rate as early in the front-end circuit as possible. It is contemplated that reducing the repetition rate in this manner provides more process time that may be allocated for data acquisition, hold, dump, or time guard bands, all of which may help to improve the measurement accuracy of the analog front-end circuit.

  • Publication number: 20160117003
    Abstract: A touch apparatus and a touch method are provided. The touch apparatus includes a touch panel and a processing unit. The touch panel includes a plurality of sensing electrodes. The touch panel has a first contact surface and a second contact surface. The processing unit is configured to the touch panel. The processing unit receives a touch signal generated by the touch panel sensing a touch operation. The processing unit determines whether the operation is located on the first contact surface or on the second contact surface of the touch panel according to the touch signal and a preset condition. The preset condition is determined by a sensing signal generated by sensing the touch operation touching first contact surface or the second contact surface of the touch panel using at least one of the sensing electrodes.
