  • Patent number: 12265427
    Abstract: A device includes a body having an outer surface. The device includes a plurality of pins in the body, a first pin of the plurality of pins configured to receive a first signal having a first rate, a second pin of the plurality of pins configured to receive a second signal having a second rate less than the first rate. The device includes a shield on a first portion of the outer surface to define an exposed second portion of the outer surface, wherein the second pin is positioned closer to the exposed second portion than the first pin.

  • Publication number: 20240349468
    Abstract: A camera module includes a printed circuit, an image sensor, a lens assembly, and a multi-layer shield. The lens assembly is configured to focus image light to the image sensor. The multi-layer shield is disposed around the lens assembly and around the image sensor. The multi-layer shield includes a shield layer and a light-blocking layer. The shielding layer is configured to block electromagnetic interference (EMI). The light-blocking layer is configured to block ambient light from becoming incident on the image sensor and the lens assembly.

  • Patent number: 8773332
    Abstract: A method for driving pixels of an active matrix organic light-emitting diode display is disclosed. The method includes charging a first terminal and a second terminal of a first capacitor with a reference voltage and a reset voltage respectively, and turning on a third switch simultaneously, floating the second terminal of the first capacitor, charging the first terminal of the first capacitor according to a data voltage, floating the first terminal of the first capacitor and turning on the third switch. Thus, determine a driving current independent of process variances of the N-type thin film transistor and a voltage drop of an OLED according to a difference voltage across the first capacitor.

  • Patent number: 8692743
    Abstract: A pixel driving circuit of an organic light emitting diode (OLED) includes a first switch, a first capacitor, a transistor, a second switch, a second capacitor, and an OLED. The operation of the pixel driving circuit includes four stages of reset, threshold voltage compensation, data writing, and emitting. The pixel driving circuit compensates the threshold voltage of the transistor, so the driving current of the OLED is only related to the data voltage and the reference voltage.
