| 20100035560 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TRANSFORMING AND TRANSMITTING SIGNAL - A signal transforming and transmitting apparatus and a signal transforming and transmitting method are provided. The signal transforming and transmitting apparatus includes a processing chip, and a signal dividing/integrating unit. The processing chip defines a signal-download period and a signal-upload period according to a clock signal. The signal dividing/integrating unit is coupled to the processing chip, and is adapted for dividing a wired downloading signal from a wireless downloading signal transmitted from the base station during the signal-download period, and transmitting the wired downloading signal and the wireless downloading signal to corresponding downstream devices. The signal dividing/integrating unit is adapted for integrating a wired uploading signal and a wireless uploading signal into an integrated wireless uploading signal and transmitting the integrated wireless uploading signal to the base station, during the signal-upload period. In such a way, the present invention avoids the interference caused by overlaps between uploading and downloading operations. | 02-11-2010 |
| 20100033151 | MULTI-PHASE VOLTAGE REGULATOR MODULE AND METHOD CONTROLLING THE SAME - A multi-phase voltage regulator module connects to a central processing unit and is able to operate in one of a high-load mode and a low-load mode. The multi-phase voltage regulator module comprises: a pulse-width-modulation controller generating a plurality of phase-width-modulation signals; and, a plurality of phase circuits, each of which receives a corresponding one of the phase-width-modulation signals and generates a corresponding output current to the central processing unit; wherein a first portion of the phase circuits are activated when the multi-phase voltage regulator module is operated in the low-load mode at a first time, and, a second portion of the phase circuits are activated when the multi-phase voltage regulator module is operated in the low-load mode at a second time, the first portion being non-identical to the second portion. | 02-11-2010 |
| 20100027201 | SLIDING MECHANISM AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE USING THE SAME - The invention provides a sliding mechanism and an electronic device using the same. The sliding mechanism includes a bottom plate, a connection rod, a cover plate, an elastic member, and a connection member. Guiding sections are formed at two sides of the bottom plate, and the bottom plate has a first fastening hole and an arc-shaped groove. The connection rod has a first end and a second end. Sliding portions are formed at two sides of the cover plate to cooperate with the guiding sections to enable the cover plate to slide relative to the bottom plate, and the cover plate has a second fastening hole and a connection hole. The elastic member includes a third end and a fourth end. Furthermore, the connection member slidably fastens the fourth end of the elastic member and the second end of the connection rod to the arc-shaped groove through the connection hole. | 02-04-2010 |
| 20100023745 | MEMORANDUM-PRESENTING METHOD AND COMPUTER SYSTEM USING THE SAME - A memorandum-information presenting method and a computer system using the method are provided. The computer system allows the memorandum-information to be presented and/or edited during a booting procedure, for example, while executing BIOS codes, initializing various components, checking hardware, allocating resources, or assisting to load an operating system. Accordingly, a user may read or edit the information without waiting for the computer system to successfully enter an operating system. | 01-28-2010 |
| 20100020484 | Fixing Device - A fixing device for detachably fastening an electronic element inside thereof is described. Two fastening modules are respectively disposed on the two opposite inner walls of a housing. A positioning disk is rotatably connected with the positioning frame and has a concave section with a pair of inner side surfaces. The positioning disk is disposed between the first pair of positioning surfaces while the positioning disk is disposed between the second pair of positioning surfaces. When the positioning disk is at a first position, the pair of inner side surfaces is aligned with the first pair of positioning surfaces to allow the electronic element to be inserted between. When the positioning disk is rotated from the first position to the second position, the pair of inner side surfaces is aligned with the second pair of positioning surfaces, and the first and second connection members engage each other to fasten the electronic element. | 01-28-2010 |
| 20100020479 | ELECTRONIC APPARATUS - The invention discloses an electronic apparatus comprising a motherboard, a connector, a card member and a first holder. The connector is disposed on the motherboard and the card member is disposed on the connector. The motherboard comprises a first fixing portion and the card member comprises a second fixing portion. The first holder comprises a third fixing portion fixed to the first fixing portion of the motherboard and a fourth fixing portion fixed to the second fixing portion of the card member. Accordingly, once the motherboard or the card member is hit or pulled by an external force, since two ends of the first holder respectively fix the card member and the motherboard, the card member will not be detached from the connector, such that the card member can be connected to the connector well. | 01-28-2010 |
| 20100020478 | ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND MOTHERBOARD THEREOF - The invention discloses a motherboard applied to an electronic apparatus. The motherboard has a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The motherboard comprises a decorative pattern, a socket, one or more slots, and a plurality of first electronic components. The decorative pattern is formed on the first surface. The socket and the slot(s) are disposed on the first surface, wherein the socket is used for disposing a second electronic component, such as a central processing unit. The first electronic components are disposed on the second surface, wherein the first electronic components comprise resistor, inductor, capacitor, integrated circuit, or Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (MOS). | 01-28-2010 |
