  • Patent number: 10014779
    Abstract: A power supply device includes a power supply module, a voltage regulator module and an over-voltage protection (OVP) module. The power supply module is utilized to provide a standby voltage signal. The voltage regulator module includes a phase modulator circuit. The phase modulator circuit includes a high-side power transistor, a low-side power transistor and a phase inductor. The OVP module is utilized to transmit the standby voltage signal to the phase modulator circuit and detect a detection potential on the phase modulator circuit. The OVP module selectively conducts the low-side power transistor of the phase modulator circuit according to the detection potential.

  • Publication number: 20160173937
    Abstract: A method for managing media content casting among media casting devices supporting different media casting protocols for use in a device wirelessly connected to the media casting devices is provided. The method includes the following steps. A request indicating media content to be casted is first received. The media casting devices are scanned to determine a list of available devices for media content casting according to the predetermined preferences. The list of available devices is displayed on a display for selection. A first media casting protocol corresponding to a first selected media casting device is determined and the media content is transmitted to the first selected media casting device by the first media casting protocol.
