Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a video interface conversion device that includes a first and a second interface transmission circuit, a color conversion circuit and an image compression circuit. The first and the second interface transmission circuit are respectively electrically coupled to an image source and a display terminal. The second interface transmission circuit negotiates a maximum output bandwidth with the display terminal such that the first interface transmission circuit compares an input data bandwidth of a data signal received from the image source and the maximum output bandwidth. When the maximum output bandwidth is smaller than the input data bandwidth, an image compression and/or a color coding conversion is performed on the data signal, and the data signal having the processed input data bandwidth being smaller than or equal to the maximum output bandwidth is further transmitted by the second interface transmission circuit to the display terminal.

Abstract: A data conversion device includes a storage circuit and a frequency tuning circuit. The storage circuit is configured to store a pixel data in a high definition multimedia interface (HDMI) signal according to a first clock, and output an image data according to a second clock. The frequency tuning circuit is configured to adjust the second clock according to a control signal and the second clock in the HDMI signal, and transmit the adjusted second clock to the storage circuit.

Abstract: A detection circuit and a wake-up method are provided. The detection circuit is adapted to a high definition multimedia interface (HDMI) receiver that enters a power-saving mode in a fixed rate link (FRL) mode to detect whether or not an HDMI transmitter starts to transmit video packets through the FRL. The detection circuit includes a signal detection circuit detecting whether or not signal exists on the FRL and an FRL packet determination circuit determining whether or not the FRL packets are the video packets according to a variable value characteristic of the video packets and/or a fixed value characteristic of gap packets. An existence of the signal on the FRL indicates an existence of FRL packets on the FRL. When the FRL packets are the video packets, the FRL packet determination circuit wakes the HDMI receiver from the power-saving mode to resolve the video packets and display videos.

Abstract: A MOV includes a MOV body, a first lead, a thermal cut-off fuse, a second lead and a silver electrode area. The MOV of the present invention employs the silver electrode area formed on and electrically coupled to the MOV body, thus the MOV has a lower inductance, which accordingly, enables the MOV to have a high and sound thermal conductivity. Hence, the MOV can fleetly and perfectly transfer heat to the thermal cut-off fuse in case of over-voltages, thus enabling the thermal cut-off fuse to cut off the power more quickly.
