  • Patent number: 10827271
    Abstract: A system includes a logic device configured to cause the system to perform operations. The operations include requesting, from a peripheral device coupled to a host device, a device descriptor of the peripheral device, receiving, from the peripheral device, the device descriptor including at least two configurations. A first configuration includes an audio communications protocol having a plurality of selectable audio bit-rates and a second configuration including a plurality of selectable audio bit-rates and burst-rates. The operations further include selecting, from the first configuration and the second configuration based, at least in part, on a configuration of the host device, wherein the host device is configured to select the second configuration when the host device is compatible with the second configuration and select the first configuration when the host device is not compatible with the second configuration.

  • Patent number: 6812752
    Abstract: A voltage level detector for use between a power supply apparatus and a functional circuit is provided. The voltage level detector includes a power input terminal, a voltage dividing circuit and a logic operation circuit. The power input terminal is used for receiving power of a first voltage. The voltage dividing circuit is used for dividing the first voltage into a second voltage having a level lower than that of the first voltage but greater than a threshold voltage. The logic operation circuit is integrated with the functional circuit and having a first and a second input ends thereof electrically connected to the power input terminal and the voltage dividing circuit, respectively. According to the voltage level detector of the present invention, a warning signal is asserted to the functional circuit when the second voltage level drops below the threshold voltage.

  • Patent number: 6299058
    Abstract: A method for positioning a solder ball onto a contact tail of an electrical connector comprises several steps. Firstly, arrange the contact tail into a center region and a peripheral region surrounding the center region. Secondly, attach solder paste onto the center region of the contact tail via a first mesh painting procedure. Thirdly, attach solder resist onto the peripheral region of the contact tail via a second mesh painting procedure. Fourthly, position a solder ball on the center region of the contact tail via a screen board. Fifthly, apply a reflow soldering procedure on the solder ball so that the solder ball can be soldered on the solder paste attached to the center region of the contact tail.

  • Patent number: 5308143
    Abstract: A safety rocker or an infant seat includes a foot piece, a support bracket, two clips, two sets of pads, an upper frame, a lower frame, an inner fastener, a torsion coil spring, an outer fastener, a bolt, a swivel head, and a seat cover. The two clips are mounted on the foot piece near the bend point in order to attach the support bracket to the foot piece. The support bracket can be detached from these two clips to fold up the rocker when it is not in use. A swinging mechanism is constructed by using the bolt to penetrate the lower frame, the inner fastener, the torsion coil spring, the outer fastener, and the support bracket. Then, the swivel head is engaged with the bolt such that the lower and upper frames can limitedly rotate about the bolt with respect to the support bracket. The swivel head can be locked by engaging the inner and outer fasteners together if the rotation of the lower and upper frames with respect to the support bracket is not intended.
