Abstract: An elastic probe device comprising an insulating substrate and a set of probes, the insulating substrate having signal input and output contacts, the probes being adhered to the contacts on the insulating substrate and perpendicular to the insulating substrate, the probes being stacked up to a required height with triangular modules and circular modules, wherein the triangular modules are stacked at different angles to form a set of elastic probe device.

Abstract: Vertical sync signal separation apparatus and method are provided. The vertical sync signal separation apparatus includes a parameter detecting unit, a threshold generating unit and a vertical sync signal generating unit. The parameter detecting unit measures a composite sync signal to obtain a maximum and a second maximum positive pulse width, and a maximum and a second maximum negative pulse width. The threshold generating unit outputs a positive pulse threshold based on the maximum and second maximum positive pulse width, and outputs a negative pulse threshold based on the maximum and second maximum negative pulse width. The vertical sync signal generating unit outputs a vertical sync signal by comparing the composite sync signal against the positive pulse threshold and the negative pulse threshold. As such, this apparatus can correctly separate a vertical sync signal from composite sync signals with different standards, thus increasing its supportability.
