  • Publication number: 20070161301
    Abstract: A multi-slave interface card reader includes a card reader body having a USB signal interface plug and a 3C memory card interface receptacle installed on one side of the body being vertical to the USB signal interface plug for placing a memory card, e.g. Mini-SD, RS-MMC, Micro-SD, or Micro-MMC. Since the card reader body has the memory card installed therein, it is possible to place the card reader body in devices like cameras, MP3's, mobile phones . . . and so forth, to act as a memory. The USB signal interface plug can be directly connected to a computer host, or the card reader body can be connected to another card reader for transferring the data stored in the memory card to the computer through the card reader. Such a device of single body with multiple interfaces allows users to employ across various platforms, meanwhile also provides cost down benefits for manufacturers.

  • Publication number: 20070126101
    Abstract: A memory card module includes a first circuit board, and a second circuit board. On one surface of the first circuit board, there are flash memories and a controller. The second circuit board is installed at one end of the first circuit board and is electrically connected with the first circuit board so as to form a transmitting interface port. On a first surface of the second circuit board, there are a plurality of interface connecting points. On a second surface of the second circuit board, part of the second surface is hollowed out. A space formed between the hollowed out area and the corresponding first circuit board increases the area for circuit layouts and the mounting components for the first circuit board. Therefore, quantity of accommodated memory components may be increased so as to increase the total storage capacity of the memory card under limitation of small dimensions.

  • Patent number: 7178736
    Abstract: The present invention is a socket of card reader (I) for memory card with connecting terminals following specification of USB, which is a socket of card reader utilizing 4 pin USB (Universal Serial Bus) architecture for reading flash memory card with USB-compatible specification. The said socket of card reader is composed of a housing, a base, and 4 connecting terminals. Therefore, in comparison to the existing card reader that contains numerous connecting terminals, the present invention is apt to be implanted into related informational products. Besides, as the circuit architecture of USB connecting port is directly applied, the cost of developing new connecting architecture is thus saved.

  • Publication number: 20030063067
    Abstract: A real-time handwritten communication system comprises a touch panel, a touch pen, a data input device, a controller device, a data output device and a display device. The touch panel for inputting handwritten data by the touch pen can convert the handwritten data into output data. The data input device receives input data transmitted from another real-time handwritten communication system and inputs the input data to the real-time handwritten communication system, and a data format of the input data is dependent on the data input device. The controller device connects with the touch panel and the data input device, and treats and transmits the input data and the output data in real-time. The data output device connects to the controller device and transmits the output data from the touch panel of the real-time handwritten communication system to another real-time handwritten communication system. The display device connects to the controller device to display the input data and the output data.
