Abstract: A system for testing a reflective display device includes a testing apparatus and a computer. The testing apparatus includes one or more light emitters, one or more light detectors, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) module, and a microcontroller unit (MCU). The light emitters are for projecting light onto a reflective display device located on the testing apparatus. The light detectors are for sensing reflected light from the reflective display device, and generating electricity according to a luminance of the reflected light. The ADC module is for receiving the electrical signals from the light detectors, and producing a digital output according to voltages of the electrical signals. The MCU is configured for reading the digital output of the ADC module. The computer is for processing the digital output and displaying results after processing.

Abstract: An exemplary light circuit includes a light unit (7) that includes a plurality of light branches (L1, L2 . . . and Ln) connected in parallel; an ambient light detector (9) for detecting an ambient luminance; an ambient light switch (101) for enabling/disenabling the ambient light detector; a control unit (3) for producing PWM waves with a particular duty cycle according to the detected ambient luminance; and a switching circuit (6) for alternatively switching on and off the light unit according to the PWM waves. An exemplary electronic book (1) configured with the lighting circuit is also provided.

Abstract: A light circuit includes a light unit (7), a control unit (3), a differentiating circuit (4) and a switching circuit (6). The light unit includes a plurality of light branches (L1, L2 . . . and Ln) connected in parallel. The light branches are controlled to light by the switching circuit that is enabled and disabled by PWM waves from the control unit. The PWM waves are differentiated into differentiated waves by the differentiating circuit before outputted to control the switching circuit.
