  • Patent number: 7684164
    Abstract: An automatic power-off protection apparatus includes an alternating current (AC) input; an AC output connected to the AC input via power wires that comprises a naught wire and a live wire; a switching unit for enabling and disabling a connection between the AC input and the AC output; a first pair of coupling coils for producing a first induced AC voltage; a second pair of coupling coil for a second induced AC voltage; an operational amplifier for amplifying a voltage difference between induced voltages across the first secondary coil and the second secondary coil; a first and second comparator for comparing the amplified voltage difference with a first reference voltage and a second reference voltage respectively. The automatic power-off protection apparatus cuts off the path between the AC input and the AC output when detecting current leaks.

  • Patent number: 7557466
    Abstract: A humidity detection and power cut-off device for electronic equipment is provided. The device is connected between a battery (10) and a motherboard (40) of the electronic equipment and includes an auto protection device (20) and a moisture-triggered device (30). The auto protection device is connected between the battery and the power management module and is used to establish or cut off the connection between the battery and the power management module. The moisture-triggered device is used to detect the immediate ambient humidity and controls the auto protection device. If the moisture-triggered circuit detects that the immediate ambient humidity exceeds a predetermined critical humidity value, the moisture-triggered device outputs a trigger signal to the auto protection device. The trigger signal controls the auto protection circuit to cut off a connection between the battery and the power management module, thus to achieve waterproofing protecting for the electronic equipment.

  • Publication number: 20070222761
    Abstract: A keyboard with definable keystroke values is provided. The keyboard includes an output interface for connecting to a keyboard interface of a host computer; keycaps for receiving operational inputs; a signal generation unit for generating keystroke signals in response to the operational inputs on the keycaps; a storage unit; and a micro control unit (MCU). The MCU includes a defining module for defining keystroke mappings between keystrokes and keystroke values in a user-defined keystroke mode, and storing the keystroke mapping into the storage unit; and an output control module for receiving the keystroke signals from the signal generation unit, reading the corresponding mapped keystroke values from the keystroke mapping stored in the storage unit in the user-defined keystroke mode, and outputting the mapped keystroke values to the keyboard interface of the host computer through the output interface.
