  • External device, electronic device and electronic system
    Patent number: 10712793
    Abstract: An external device including at least a first connector, a signal transmission module and a power module is provided. The signal transmission module is electrically connected to the first connector. The power module is electrically connected to the first connector and outputs power via the first connector. The signal transmission module of the external device is a pluggable external graphics card. A graphics card or a graphics chip in the electronic device connected to the external device can be replaced via the external graphics card. Consequently, the graphics card or the graphics chip in the electronic device can be eliminated and thus the electronic device can be made light and thin.

  • Electronic device
    Patent number: 9883572
    Abstract: An electronic device adapted for adjusting a light effect of a CCFL is provided. The electronic device is electronically connected to the CCFL. The electronic device comprises a PWM controller configured to receive at least a digital signal and to output a specific-frequency reference signal according to the digital signal, a driver electronically connected to the PWM controller and configured to output a first voltage signal according to the specific-frequency reference signal, and a transformer electronically connected to the driver and the CCFL. The transformer amplifies the first voltage signal to generate a second voltage signal and sends the second voltage signal to the CCFL. A light effect is generated by the CCFL according to the second voltage signal.
