  • Patent number: 10627891
    Abstract: A power supply system and a power supply method are provided. The power supply system includes a target device, a power supplier module and a control circuit. The control circuit is coupled to the target device and the power supplier module. The control circuit transmits a power provided by the power supplier module to the target device and disables a sub-target device of the target device if the power supplier module does not meet a default condition. The control circuit transmits the power provided by the power supplier module to the target device and enables the sub-target device if the power supplier module meets the default condition.

  • Publication number: 20190027088
    Abstract: A display is provided. The display includes a display panel and a timing controller. The timing controller controls the images displayed on the display panel according to a display driving signal from a host and the display driving configuration of the display panel. The timing controller determines whether there is an error in the display driving signal, and calculates an error count. The timing controller determines whether the error count is lower than a predetermined threshold. If so, the timing controller controls the display panel to display the display images normally according to the display driving signal. If not, the timing controller reports a display error signal to the host, so that the host dynamically updates the display driving configuration.

  • Patent number: 9570922
    Abstract: A charging method for an electronic device having a charging unit and a connection interface unit and the electronic device are provided. The connection interface unit is externally connected to a peripheral device. The charging method includes: detecting a signal level between the charging unit and the connection interface unit; and when a time period that the detected signal level keeps on a particular level is over a threshold, resetting the connection interface unit, so as to restart a charging function of the electronic device for the peripheral device.

  • Patent number: 9410557
    Abstract: A fan module including a first fan, a second fan and an actuator is provided. The first fan has a first pivot portion and a plurality of first fan blades. Each first fan blade has a first blade face. The second fan has a second pivot portion and a plurality of second fan blades corresponding to the first fan blades. Each second fan blade has a second blade face. The second pivot portion is slidably disposed at a containing cavity of the first pivot portion. The actuator is adapted to drive the first fan to rotate. The first fan is adapted to drive the second fan to rotate. When the second pivot portion protrudes out of the containing cavity, a part of each of the second blade faces does not overlap with the corresponding first blade face along a direction perpendicular to the corresponding first blade face.
