Abstract: A system on a chip (SoC) with a Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) interface includes a UART interface circuit, a detection circuit, and a control circuit. The UART interface circuit includes: a plurality of UART signal pads for receiving and transmitting signals; and a UART voltage pad for receiving an external operating voltage. The detection circuit is configured to detect the magnitude of the external operating voltage and thereby generate a detection result. The control circuit is configured to determine setting of a supply voltage for the plurality of UART signal pads according to the detection result. The control circuit makes the setting of the supply voltage be compatible with the external operating voltage according to the detection result, wherein the external operating voltage is a lower first voltage or a higher second voltage, and the first lower voltage is equal to an internal device operating voltage of the SoC.

Abstract: A network streaming device that includes a wireless transmission module and a host module is provided. The wireless transmission module is configured to perform wireless communication with an external wireless access point through a wireless channel within a wireless frequency band. The host module is configured to be coupled with the wireless transmission module and generates a clock signal to the wireless transmission module according to a frequency range of the wireless channel such that the wireless transmission module operates according to the clock signal. The host module determines an operation frequency of the clock signal according to the frequency range of the wireless channel such that a plurality of harmonics of the clock signal generated according to the operation frequency are not within the frequency range.
