  • Patent number: 11967272
    Abstract: A sweep voltage generator and a display panel are provided. The sweep voltage generator includes an output node, a current generating block and a voltage regulating block. The output node is used to provide a sweep signal. The current generating block is coupled to the output node, includes a detection path for detecting an output load variation on the output node, and adjusts the sweep signal provided by the output node based on the output load variation. The voltage regulating block is coupled to the output node for regulating a voltage of the output node.

  • Publication number: 20240111709
    Abstract: A method for automatically setting addresses suitable for an RS485 system is provided. The RS485 system includes a host device and a plurality of slave devices. The method includes the following stages. The host device confirms that there are no addresses of the slave devices in a database. The slave devices are turned on in sequence. The slave devices calculate their own respective power-on times. The slave device enter an idle state during the period associated with the power-on time. Only one of the slave devices sends the power-on time to the host device when said slave device leaves the idle state. The host device sets the address of said slave device according to the power-on time when said slave device leaves the idle state.

  • Publication number: 20240094464
    Abstract: A semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) structure and a method for forming the SOI structure. The method includes forming a first dielectric layer on a first semiconductor layer. A second semiconductor layer is formed over an etch stop layer. A cleaning solution is provided to a first surface of the first dielectric layer. The first dielectric layer is bonded under the second semiconductor layer in an environment having a substantially low pressure. An index guiding layer may be formed over the second semiconductor layer. A third semiconductor layer is formed over the second semiconductor layer. A distance between a top of the third semiconductor layer and a bottom of the second semiconductor layer varies between a maximum distance and a minimum distance. A planarization process is performed on the third semiconductor layer to reduce the maximum distance.

  • Patent number: 11646529
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a charging gun including a cable, an outer casing and a strain relief structure. The outer casing includes a first case and a second case, wherein the first case is detachably assembled with the second case. The strain relief structure includes a first portion, a second portion and a plurality of first ring-shaped protrusions. The first portion is detachably assembled with the second portion, the first portion is disposed on the first housing, and the second portion is disposed on the second housing. When the first case is assembled and connected with the second case, the first portion is assembled and connected with the second portion, and at least a part of a surface of the cable is covered by the strain relief structure, and the strain relief structure is clamped between the cable and the outer casing.

  • Patent number: 11600973
    Abstract: A cable clamping assembly includes a cable clamp and a supporting base. The cable clamp includes a protruding base and two bendable arms. The protruding base has an opening disposed on the center of a top surface. The two bendable arms respectively include a plurality of first latching components and a plurality of second latching components. The supporting base includes a concave portion. A guiding slope and a positioning portion are disposed within the concave portion. When the cable clamp clamps a cable, the two bendable arms respectively slide downwardly along two ends of the guiding slope to surround the cable, until one of the two bendable arms is stopped by the positioning portion. The protruding base is deformed in response to a pressing force, so that the bendable arms tie the cable closely, and the plurality of first latching components lock with the plurality of second latching components.
