  • Publication number: 20230133879
    Abstract: A storage device sharing system and a storage device sharing method are provided. The storage device sharing system includes a storage device, a first chip and a second chip. The first chip and the second chip are configured to enter a toggle mode and an arbitration mode. In the toggle mode, the first chip that acts as the master controls the arbitration potential to a first control potential and a second control potential, and communicates with the storage device in response to the arbitration potential being the first control potential, and the second chip that acts as a slave communicates with the storage device in response to the arbitration potential being the second control potential.

  • Patent number: 10331197
    Abstract: A display controller disposed in a display device that includes a flash memory and an integrated circuit is provided. The flash memory stores display device information of the display device. The integrated circuit includes a first and a second power conversion circuit and an accessing circuit. The first power conversion circuit converts an external power received from an external power adapter to a power in a first power domain. The second power conversion circuit converts a host power received from a host to the power of a second power domain and outputs the power to a flash memory such that the flash memory operates accordingly. The accessing circuit operates according to the power of the second power domain to access and transmit the display device information from the flash memory to the host when the first power conversion circuit is not in operation.

  • Patent number: 7307791
    Abstract: A head-mounted display (HMD) comprises a frame for hanging on a user's head, and a display device affixed to the frame. The display device comprises alight source, a driving circuit for generating data signals, a polarization beam splitter (PBS), for passing the light emitted from the light source, a liquid crystal on silicon panel (LCOS panel) for reflecting the light from the PBS based on the data signal generated by the driving circuit, and a lens group including a biconvex glass spherical prism and an aspherical plastic prism. The lens group is used for focusing the reflected light from the LCOS panel.
