Abstract: A paging channel is monitored at a special position of every predetermined time interval subsequent to the last monitored time. It is detected whether a same first identity information is repeatedly broadcasted in the paging channel at special positions of different predetermined time interval. A total number of periodically repeated messages containing the same first identity information is determined. A new time interval is determined by multiplying a time period between two successive repeated paging messages with the total number of periodically repeated paging messages, wherein the new time interval has a monitoring interval (having a plurality of predetermined time intervals) equaling to the length of the time period and a sleep interval. The paging channel is monitored at special positions of the plurality of predetermined time intervals in every new time interval subsequent to the last monitored time so as to receive subsequent paging messages from the cell.

The scroll wheel has a wheel portion and an axle portion. The support seat has an axle-receiving hole where the axle portion is inserted and held. The axle portion of the scroll wheel has a toothed disc with a plurality of protrusions and recessions arranged alternately. The support seat has a stepping generation member corresponding to the toothed disc. The stepping generation member has a pressing tip normally contacting the toothed disc. The rotation of the scroll wheel makes the pressing tip move to-and-fro between the protrusions and recessions and generates the vertical and reciprocating vibration travels of the pressing tip. Thereby, when the user operates the scroll wheel, he will have a hand feeling of discrete vibrations generated by the stepping generation member.

Abstract: A power supply device is utilized for providing operating voltages to circuits of various processes. Said power supply device provides a direct couple path whenever the voltage supply level of a corresponding battery enters into a domain of an operating voltage of a circuit. When the voltage provided by the battery is higher than an ideal operating voltage domain of the circuit, said power supply device utilizes a conventional transformer to supply a required voltage for said circuit. However, when the voltage provided by the battery enters the ideal operating voltage region, the power supply device provides a direct couple path for enabling said battery to directly supply a required voltage for said circuit other than supplying the required voltage by transformation of said transformer. By this mechanism, power consumption generated by the conventional transformer is saved, and related voltage utilization efficiency is enhanced.
