Publication number: 20250203146Abstract: A High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) signal detection method is provided. The HDMI signal detection method may be applied to an apparatus (e.g., a sink device). The HDMI signal detection method may include the following steps. The apparatus may receive input data from a source apparatus through an HDMI standard, wherein the input data comprises a plurality of data sets. Then, the apparatus may compare each data set to a predefined reference pattern according to a slide window with the predefined reference pattern to generate a comparison result. Then, the apparatus may determine whether the total match count corresponding to the comparison result is less than a threshold to determine the HDMI standard corresponding to the input data.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 8, 2024Publication date: June 19, 2025Inventors: Chen-Yi LIU, Ko-Yin LAI, Chih-Wei CHOU, Kuo-Chang CHENG, You-Tsai JENG, Chin-Lung LIN, Hung-Yu SU, Chi-Chih CHEN, Tai-Lai TUNG

Patent number: 10090937Abstract: An apparatus for eliminating impulse interference includes an impulse interference detecting unit, an impulse interference eliminating unit and a control unit. The impulse interference detecting unit detects whether impulse interference exists in an input signal according to a predetermined condition, and generates an impulse interference eliminating request when having detected that the input signal satisfies the predetermined condition. In response to the impulse interference eliminating request, the impulse interference eliminating unit performs an impulse interference eliminating process on the input signal to generate an output signal. According to an output signal quality index associated with the output signal, the control unit selectively adjusts the predetermined condition used for detecting whether the impulse interference exists.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2015Date of Patent: October 2, 2018Assignee: MSTAR SEMICONDUCTOR, INC.Inventors: You-Tsai Jeng, Fang-Ming Yang, Kuo-Yu Lee, Keng-Lon Lei, Tai-Lai Tung
