  • Patent number: 7990198
    Abstract: The invention is related to an apparatus and a method for generating an output clock. The method comprises: receiving a transmitted signal comprising at least one data signal and at least one synchronized signal; producing a reference signal according to the synchronization signal; counting the first reference signal according to a free-run clock outputted by a free-run clock generator to produce a counter signal; and generating the output clock according to the counter signal and the free-run clock.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7193547
    Abstract: A DAC/ADC system for generating reference clocks for DAC/ADC by a look-up table method. The DAC/ADC system includes a sampling signal generator, a DAC, and an ADC. The sampling signal generator generates first and second sampling signals according to first and second reference clocks by a look-up table method, respectively. The DAC receives a digital input signal and converts it into an analog output signal according to the first sampling signal. The ADC receives an analog input signal and converts it into a digital output signal according to the second sampling signal.

  • Publication number: 20070033714
    Abstract: A helmet has a body, a cover and a chinstrap. The body has a lower segment, an upper segment and an illuminant assembly. The upper segment has multiple locking slots and recesses. The illuminant assembly is mounted in the recesses and has a circuit board, at least one battery seat, multiple illuminants and multiple electrical wires. The cover is mounted detachably on the upper segment of the body and has multiple windows, longitudinal slots and fasteners. The windows are defined through the cover and align respectively with the illuminants. The longitudinal slots are defined through the cover and align respectively with the locking slots. The fasteners detachably mount respectively through the longitudinal slots in the cover and locking slots, and each fastener has a knob and a T-shaped latch. The illuminants are replaced easily by detaching the cover. The chinstrap is attached to the body.
