Publication number: 20230148815Abstract: A suction device and a suction force adjustment method thereof are provided. A detecting device collects sound generated when the suction device executes a suction operation to obtain characteristics of a sound signal. The detecting device determines a clogging degree of a filter disposed on an exhaust vent of a suction unit, an airflow velocity in a suction pipe, a material of the suctioned surface, and a degree of closure between a suction port of the suction device and the suctioned surface according to the characteristics of the sound signal. A control host adjusts a suction force of the suction unit or adjusts the degree of closure between the suction port of the suction device and the suctioned surface according to a detected result of the detecting device, and provides warning information for cleaning or replacing the filter.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 8, 2022Publication date: May 18, 2023Applicant: Aspect Microsystems Corp.Inventors: Mingshun Shih, Jung-Fu Liao, Jih-Chang Chen

Patent number: 8908719Abstract: An exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure illustrates a clock rate control method. Firstly, a usage of a first input first output (FIFO) buffer in an electronic device is detected. Then, whether the usage falls within a first specific interval is determined, wherein the first specific interval has a first upper limit value and a first lower limit value. When the usage is larger than the first upper limit value, a clock rate of the inner device of the electronic device is increased; when the usage is less than the first lower limit value, the clock rate is decreased.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2012Date of Patent: December 9, 2014Assignee: C-Media Electronics Inc.Inventors: Jung-Fu Liao, Hung-Chi Huang

Publication number: 20140142734Abstract: A virtual signal source generating apparatus is provided. The virtual signal source generating apparatus includes at least an audio interface, a control module, a detecting module and a processing module. The control module is used for acquiring an audio signal from a signal source, wherein the audio signal includes a clock information and an audio information. The detecting module is used for detecting whether the audio interface is coupled to the signal source. The processing module is used for transmitting the audio signal. If the detecting module detects that the signal source disappears when the virtual signal source generating apparatus is in the recording mode, the control module transmits a control signal to the processing module so that the processing module transmits a virtual audio signal to a host.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2013Publication date: May 22, 2014Applicant: C-MEDIA ELECTRONICS INC.Inventors: HUNG-CHI HUANG, JUNG-FU LIAO

Patent number: 8364299Abstract: An audio signal transmission apparatus avoiding noise generation is applied to a game platform functions by executing a recording process, and comprises: an analog-to-digital converter, an intermediary processing unit, a counter, and a controlling unit. The analog-to-digital converter is used for converting an analog audio signal to a first digital audio signal. The intermediary processing unit is connected with the analog-to-digital converter for transmitting the first digital audio signal. The counter controls the intermediary processing unit to output the first digital audio signal after counting a specific time. The controlling unit, connected with the counter and the intermediary processing unit, is used for transmitting the first digital audio signal to the game platform. Therefore, the present invention can achieve the purpose for avoiding noise generation when the audio signal transmission apparatus plugs into the game platform.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2009Date of Patent: January 29, 2013Assignee: C-Media Electronics Inc.Inventor: Jung-Fu Liao
