  • Publication number: 20240079757
    Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with peripheral conductive housing structures having first and second segments. A flexible printed circuit may have a first tail that extends along the first and second segments and a second tail that extends along the first segment. A conductive trace on the first tail may be coupled to an antenna feed terminal on the second segment. A conductive trace on the second tail may couple the conductive trace on the first tail to the first segment. A tuner and filters may be disposed on the flexible printed circuit and may be coupled to the conductive traces. The conductive trace on the second tail may have a tapered width. An antenna in the device may have a resonating element that includes both the first and second segments, thereby allowing the antenna to exhibit a wide bandwidth from 1.1-5 GHz.

  • Patent number: 11921941
    Abstract: A mouse pad device is provided. The mouse pad device includes a mouse pad body, a first mouse pad secondary resonant circuit, and a second mouse pad secondary resonant circuit. The first mouse pad secondary resonant circuit receives an external wireless power from a wireless power supply. The second mouse pad secondary resonant circuit receives a relay wireless power from the first mouse pad secondary resonant circuit. The first mouse pad secondary resonant circuit and the second mouse pad secondary resonant circuit are arranged in the mouse pad body. The first mouse pad secondary resonant circuit provides a first wireless power to the mouse device. The second mouse pad secondary resonant circuit provides a second wireless power to the keyboard device according to the relay wireless power.

  • Patent number: 9336976
    Abstract: A relay driving device includes first and second power supply modules, a switching circuit, and a control module. The first power supply module outputs a first voltage that has a magnitude sufficient to activate the relay. The second power supply module outputs a second voltage that has a magnitude sufficient to maintain an activated state of the relay. The control module is configured to control the switching circuit to connect the relay to the first power supply module so as to provide the first voltage to the relay for activating the relay, and to subsequently connect the relay to the second power supply module so as to provide the second voltage to the relay for maintaining the activated state of the relay.

  • Publication number: 20120161916
    Abstract: A core unit includes first and second core elements. The first core element includes a first peripheral portion and a first leakage inductance portion that is confined by the first peripheral portion and that has a first end surface. The second core element includes a second peripheral portion and a second leakage inductance portion that is confined by the second peripheral portion and that has a second end surface. The first and second peripheral portions are connected to each other, and the first and second end surfaces are disposed to face each other and are spaced apart from each other so as to form a gap therebetween. At least one of the first and second end surfaces is a non-level surface.
