  • Patent number: 11573919
    Abstract: A method for synchronous serial communication includes encoding, by a master device, a header field to be initially transmitted in a frame with a header identification code and a slave count value that defines a number of slave devices communicatively coupled to the master device. A plurality of address fields to be transmitted in the frame are also encoded by the master device. Each of the address fields corresponding to a different one the slave devices. A first of the address fields to be transmitted in the frame corresponds to a last of the slave devices to receive the header field, and a last of the address fields to be transmitted in the frame corresponds to a first of the slave devices to receive the header field. The frame is transmitted to the slave devices by the master device.

  • Patent number: 10151339
    Abstract: A cable length automatic adjustment device for a vehicle window lifter includes a housing (1) having a hollow internal, a cable axial shaft (2) arranged inside the housing (1) and an adjusting member (3). The cable axial shaft (2) includes an axle base (20), an axial shaft (21) extended from the axle base (20) and a first elastic member (22) abutted between the axle base (20) and an inner wall of the housing (1). The adjusting member (3) includes a slotted base (30), positioning pieces (32) moveably attached onto the slotted base (30) and a second elastic member (33) abutted between the axle base (20) and the positioning pieces (32). The axial shaft (21) includes indented positioning portions (210), and the positioning pieces (32) include corresponding engagement portions (320). The positioning pieces (32) are clamped onto the positioning portions (210) of the axial shaft (21) with the engagement portions (320).

  • Patent number: 6297684
    Abstract: A circuit for switching digital signals on a plurality of signal lines where signals on different signals line may have different signal rates includes a controller that prevents a switch from being turned off until after another switch is stably turned ON. This allows more than one switch at a time to supply a correspondingly received digital signal to an output. Substantially identical digital signals may be supplied to two inputs of such a circuit while the circuit is switched between the respective inputs. The circuit may be driven by an encoder that supplies encoded signals without recursion but that conforms to encoding conventionally supplied by recursion. The encoder may be implemented in parallel configuration for rapid encoding of a signal, and may be implanted to perform a data strobe signal encoding conforming to IEEE standard 1394.
