  • Patent number: 11228194
    Abstract: A motherboard having a smart charging function is provided. A connection interface is configured to an electrical device. A first controller is coupled to the switching circuit and communicates with the electrical device via a first transmission path. A second controller is coupled to the switching circuit and communicates with the electrical device via a second transmission path. In a standard charge mode, the first transmission path is turned on and the first controller directs a voltage converter circuit to generate first charge power to the electrical device. In a fast charge mode, the first controller determines whether the electrical device has a specific operating system. Responsive to determining that the electrical device does not have the specific operating system, the second transmission path is turned on and the second controller directs the voltage converter circuit to generate second charge power to the electrical device.

A first controller communicates with the electrical device via a first transmission path. A second controller communicates with the electrical device via a second transmission path. In a first mode, the first controller directs a voltage converter circuit to generate first charge power to the electrical device. In a second mode, the second controller directs the voltage converter circuit to generate second charge power to the electrical device. In a third mode, the first controller determines whether the electrical device is a specific device. Responsive to the electrical device not being the specific device, the voltage converter circuit generates third charge power to the electrical device. Responsive to the electrical device being the specific device, the voltage converter circuit generates fourth charge power to the electrical device.

  • Patent number: 10645650
    Abstract: A computer waking method applied to a computer having a Bluetooth signal receiving port, and with the computer waking method comprises: determining whether the computer receives a trigger instruction when a processor of the computer stops working and the computer is operated in a power saving mode; determining whether an intensity of a communication signal related to a registered mobile device obtained by the Bluetooth signal receiving port falls within an working intensity range; and enabling the processor to make the computer operate in a working mode when the computer receives the trigger instruction and the intensity of the communication signal falls within a working intensity range.
