Patent number: 10664005Abstract: The invention provides a system and method for detecting clock frequency offset of fan chip. The system comprises a fan chip and a control unit. A target pulse width is defined in the fan chip and the control unit. When the control unit executes a detection process of clock frequency offset for the fan chip, it will generate a specific pattern pulse signal and send the specific pattern pulse signal to the fan chip. The fan chip enters a detection mode of clock frequency offset according to the specific pattern pulse signal, generates a response signal including an actual target pulse width based on referring to the defined target pulse width, and send the response signal to the control unit. The control unit compares a difference between the actual target pulse width and the defined target pulse width to detect a clock frequency offset value of the fan chip.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2018Date of Patent: May 26, 2020Assignee: Sentelic CorporationInventors: Wen-Ting Lee, Chung-Chih Fang, Li-Wei Lin

Patent number: 10638640Abstract: The invention provides a fan control system, which comprises a fan, a control unit, and a fan chip. The fan chip comprises a command table. A first specific pulse pattern represented as a first form of code, and a second specific pulse pattern represented as a second form of code are defined in the fan chip. The command table records at least one control command. Each control command is corresponding to a code string, respectively. When the fan chip receives a series of pulse signals from the control unit, it will determine that the code string is represented by the pulse signals, and inquire the corresponding control command from the command table according to the determinated code string so as to set up at least one operation parameter of the fan chip or control the fan to perform a corresponding operation according to the inquired control command.Type: GrantFiled: October 16, 2018Date of Patent: April 28, 2020Assignee: SENTELIC CORPORATIONInventors: Wen-Ting Lee, Chung-Chih Fang, Li- Wei Lin

Patent number: 10440857Abstract: The invention provides a detection system and method of signal transmission delay for fan chip. The detection system comprises a circuit board, a fan chip and a control unit. The control unit generates a first pulse signal having a specific pulse pattern, and send the first pulse signal to the fan chip. When the fan chip is operating in a detection mode of signal transmission delay according to the first pulse signal, the fan chip copies the specific pulse pattern of the first pulse signal to generate a second pulse signal having the specific pulse pattern, and send the second pulse signal to the control unit. The control unit calculates a time difference between a time that sends the first pulse signal and a time that receives the second pulse signal, so as to obtain a delay time of signal transmission between the control unit and the fan chip.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2018Date of Patent: October 8, 2019Assignee: Sentelic CorporationInventors: Wen-Ting Lee, Chung-Chih Fang, Li-Wei Lin

Patent number: 7921244Abstract: A communication system may include one or more communication interfaces, a controller, and a storage unit. The communication interface(s) may be configured to be coupled to first and second computing devices. The controller is configured to establish a communication channel between the first and second computing devices. The first and second communication interfaces are coupled with the controller, and the controller is further configured to receive from at least one of the first and second computing devices a communication command communicated in a first format consistent with an external storage device protocol. The storage unit is coupled with the controller and contains a set of instructions recognizable and executable by the first and second computing devices for converting communication requests from at least one of the first and second computing devices to the communication command.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2008Date of Patent: April 5, 2011Assignee: Ours Technology, Inc.Inventors: Ming-Te Chang, Chung-Chih Fang
