  • Publication number: 20230297390
    Abstract: A computing system is provided. The computing system a central processing unit (CPU) configured to run a basic input/output system (BIOS) service and an operating system (OS). The computing system further includes a baseboard management controller (BMC) and a first boot non-volatile memory coupled to both the CPU and the BMC.

  • Publication number: 20230103961
    Abstract: An antenna device and an orientation adjustment mechanism are provided. The orientation adjustment mechanism includes a holder, a rotation carrier assembled to the holder, and a torsion spring. The rotation carrier is counterclockwise rotatable from an initial position by a first predetermined angle or is clockwise rotatable from the initial position by a second predetermined angle. The torsion spring has an elastic portion disposed on the holder and two extending arms that extend from the elastic portion. When the rotation carrier is rotated from the initial position by the first predetermined angle or the second predetermined angle, the rotation carrier presses and moves one of the two extending arms, and another one of the two extending arms abuts against the limiting portion, so that the elastic portion is deformed to store an elastic force that tends to move the rotation carrier toward the initial position.

  • Patent number: 11366710
    Abstract: A system and method for shortening the system management mode when a fault occurs in hardware component in a computer system is disclosed. The computer system has hardware components that may have faults. Notification of an error in one of the hardware components is received through RAS silicon on a processing unit. The error is detected from the hardware component by a system management interrupt handler executed by a bootstrap processor core. The error data is logged into a system error log via a system control interrupt handler executed by the processing unit. The system management mode is avoided during the logging of the error data. This prevents other processor cores being suspended from the system management mode.

  • Patent number: 9921915
    Abstract: A method for recovering a baseboard management controller (BMC) by determining, by a basic input/output system (BIOS), whether a BMC recovery mode is generated by a recovery mode jumper being triggered. The system performing the method can further install, if the recovery jumper is not triggered, a BMC firmware update driver and detect, if the recovery jumper is not triggered, a BMC image. The system that performs the method can further update, if the recovery jumper is not triggered, the BMC firmware and copy to a backup image, if the recovery jumper is not triggered, the BMC firmware update.

  • Patent number: 7357535
    Abstract: A straight down back light module including a diffuser plate, a lamp, a reflector plate (back plate) and a support. The reflector plate is located below the diffuser plate. The lamp is located between the diffuser plate and the reflector plate. The support is installed between the diffuser plate and the reflector plate. The support includes a lamp cover for supporting the lamp. The lamp is directly covered by the lamp cover for preventing the lamp from deformation that could occur because of temperature difference. When used in a large-sized liquid crystal display, at least one pin can be provided on the support in order to support the diffuser plate and the lamp so as to prevent them from deformation that could occur because of temperature difference.
