Publication number: 20230412163Abstract: A power supply module and a power supply judgment method thereof are provided. A power supply circuit supplies power to an electronic device coupled to the power supply module. A plugging detection circuit detects the connection state of the electronic device. A judgment circuit switches the electronic device to connect to a first signal channel or a second signal channel in response to whether the electronic device provides device information of the electronic device within a preset time since the electronic device is coupled to the power supply module. The power supply judgment method of the invention automatically sets signal channel configurations corresponding to different external devices, thereby greatly improving the convenience of use.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2023Publication date: December 21, 2023Applicant: Coretronic CorporationInventors: Yu-Chi Wu, Jeng-An Liao, Wei-Tai Ko

Patent number: 11106120Abstract: A projection device, a light source system and a projection method thereof are provided. A portion of the light-emitting units are controlled to provide a light beam as the first light beam. It is detected whether characteristic parameters of the light-emitting units providing the light beam reach a preset value. When the preset value is not reached, the light-emitting units providing the light beam are disabled, and the remaining light-emitting units are controlled to provide the back-up light beam as the first light beam. A portion of the first light beam is converted into a second light beam. The first light beam of which the wavelength is not converted and the second light beam are combined to generate an illumination beam. The illumination beam is converted into an image beam. The image beam is converted into a projection beam.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2019Date of Patent: August 31, 2021Assignee: Coretronic CorporationInventors: Chen-Cheng Chou, Jeng-An Liao, Fu-Shun Kao, Hung-Lin Chen, Hsin-Chang Huang
