| 20130097413 | COMPUTING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A STARTUP CURRENT OF A STORAGE SYSTEM - A method for controlling a startup current of a storage system using a computing device, the computing device detects a current of each storage device of the storage system when the storage system is turned on, and calculates the power drawn by each storage device according to the current of each storage device. If a sum of powers drawn by all the storage devices is greater than a predetermined value, the computing device turns off the storage system and determines a startup sequence of the storage devices and a startup time of each storage device. The startup time of each storage device is stored in a storage unit. | 04-18-2013 |

The first interface is connected to an electronic device through a first bus. The second interface is connected to the storage controller through a second bus. The storage part includes a third interface and a storage unit. The storage unit is connected to the third interface through a third bus. The control part and the storage part are connected through a connection of the second interface and the third interface. | 04-18-2013 |
| 20130096864 | APPARATUS FOR CALIBRATING TEST VALUE OF CURRENT - An apparatus is configured for calibrating a test value of an output current of a digital power supply. The power supply has a control chip configured for detecting and outputting the test value of the output current. The apparatus includes a keyboard circuit, a digital potentiometer and a controller. The keyboard circuit is configured for inputting an actual value of the output current. The digital potentiometer is electronically connected to the control chip. The controller receives a test value and the actual value of the output current respectively from the control chip and the keyboard, determines whether the test value is equivalent to the actual value, adjusts the test value of the output current by adjusting an effective resistance of the digital potentiometer until the test value equals the actual value, and outputs the effective resistance of the digital potentiometer when the test value equals the actual value. | 04-18-2013 |
