  • Publication number: 20070105499
    Abstract: The executing program method is applied to a Bluetooth dongle using a universal serial bus (USB) as its transmission interface. When the Bluetooth dongle is plugged in an electronic device, the electronic device will automatically detect the Bluetooth dongle. An application which is stored in a storage unit of the Bluetooth dongle is activated, and the Bluetooth dongle is also activated to link a Bluetooth device. The cache files produced by the application are pointed to store in the storage unit of the Bluetooth dongle. In addition, an auto-detecting program is executed to detect whether the Bluetooth dongle is removed or not every certain period. If the Bluetooth dongle was removed, the link from the Bluetooth dongle to the Bluetooth device will be terminated. The cache files in the Bluetooth dongle will be cleared. Finally, the application and the auto-detecting program are closed.

  • Patent number: 7156313
    Abstract: An IC card with a display panel but without batteries includes a contact/contactless communication interface, a microprocessor, an EEPROM, a rectifier/voltage regulator, a display driver, a charge-pump (26) disposed therein, and a display panel disposed thereon. The microprocessor receives the external data, and displays the data on the display panel so that users can look up the external data. The display panel exhibits a double steady-state function having the characteristic that once the data are displayed, no persistent power supply for the display panel is needed, and thus the displayed data will be preserved persistently until the next time the data are updated. In this way, users are not required to use batteries and can avoid being disturbed by the service life of the batteries.

  • Patent number: 7120100
    Abstract: In a method of detecting defects during a write operation for an optical disk recording device, during a period of time immediately after writing begins, a sub-beam added (SBAD) signal is compared with a reference signal having a second threshold frequency. A defect is identified when a difference between the SBAD signal and the reference signal exceeds either a second upper limit or a second lower limit. Then, after the short period of time has elapsed, a SBAD signal is compared with and a reference signal having a first threshold frequency that is less than the second threshold frequency. A defect is identified when a difference between the SBAD signal and the reference signal exceeds either a first upper limit that is less than the second upper limit, or a first lower limit that is greater than the second lower limit.

  • Publication number: 20060209645
    Abstract: A label pattern can be created on a label side of an optical disc under well focus control. An optical disc is first loaded in an optical disc drive with the label side thereof facing to an optical head of the optical disc drive. Then, the optical head is actuated along a focusing direction. Meanwhile, a light intensity addition signal is generated in response to optical signals reflected from the optical disc and received by the optical head. A closed-loop control operation of the optical head is performed according to the light intensity addition signal after the light intensity addition signal up-crosses a threshold. Then, a label pattern can be defined on the label side of the optical disc with the closed-loop control operation.
