Abstract: When a first mode (with-SOF mode) has been set, data transfer is performed while SOF packets are transferred at frame periods, and when a second mode (non-SOF mode) has been set and also non-periodic (bulk) transfer is being performed, the periodic transfer of SOF packets is disabled and non-periodic data is transferred. If there is no non-periodic data to be transferred, a SOF packet is transferred in the frame period, even if the second mode has been set. During host operation with USB on-the-go (OTG), pipe regions are allocated to the packet buffer, and non-periodic data is transferred automatically to or from end points while the periodic transfer of SOF packets is disabled. When all of the automatic transfer instruction signals of the pipe regions are inactive, SOF packets are transferred periodically even if the second mode has been set.

Abstract: A signal state detection circuit of a data transfer control device notifies a processing of results detected by a line state detection circuit or a power supply line detection circuit by using an interrupt signal. The processing sets a state command corresponding to a state of a transition destination judged based on the notified detection results in a control register of a state controller. A state command decoder decodes the state command set in the control register and generates a control signal. A signal line control circuit controls a signal state of at least one of signal lines formed of data signal lines (D+ and D?) and power supply lines (VBUS and GND) based on the control signal.

Abstract: A video coding apparatus receives a video signal containing moving-picture information, together with other information present in certain horizontal scanning lines in the vertical blanking intervals. The video coding apparatus compresses the moving-picture information into a compressed digital video data stream, assembles the other information into packets, and multiplexes the packets with the compressed digital video data stream to generate an output signal. A video decoding apparatus demultiplexes this signal to separate the packets from the compressed digital video data stream, decompresses the compressed digital video data, and outputs a video signal having information obtained from the packets in certain horizontal scanning lines in the vertical blanking intervals, and decompressed moving-picture information in other horizontal scanning lines.
