| 20100107011 | Device and Method for Outputting BIOS Post Code - A device and method for outputting BIOS POST code, applied to a computer system. The device includes a basic input output system (BIOS), a transfer module and a video graphics array (VGA) connector. The BIOS generates a power-on self-test (POST) code using a low pin count (LPC) interface format. The transfer module receives the POST code and transfers the format of the POST code to a system management bus (SMBus) format. The VGA connector receives and outputs the POST code transmitted from the transfer module. | 04-29-2010 |
| 20090259888 | APPARATUS FOR DISPLAYING BIOS POST CODE AND METHOD THEREOF - An apparatus for displaying a basic input output system (BIOS) power-on self-test (POST) code and a method thereof are provided. The apparatus includes a BIOS, a conversion module, and an output module. The BIOS is used for generating a POST code. The POST code is transmitted via a low pin count (LPC) interface. The conversion module receives the POST code and converts the POST code into a system management bus (SMBus) format. The output module is used for receiving and outputting the POST code transmitted by the conversion module. The output module is an SMBus interface. | 10-15-2009 |
| 20090164687 | Motherboard device and computing apparatus capable of selectively controlling electric power supplied to one of two graphics cards - A motherboard device includes a first connecting interface coupled to a first graphics card, a second connecting interface coupled to a second graphics card, a power source connected electrically to the first connecting interface for supplying electric power to the first graphics card via the first connecting interface, and a switch unit interconnecting electrically the power source and the second connecting interface, and operable so as to switch between an ON-state, where the power source supplies electric power to the second graphics card via the second connecting interface, and an OFF-state, where the electric power from the power source is not supplied to the second graphics card. | 06-25-2009 |
| 20090080170 | Electronic carrier board - An electronic carrier board includes a plurality of round pads and a plurality of solder layers formed on the round pads respectively. The design of the round pads ensures the solder layers covering the pads completely, and neighboring sides of the two solder layers are lower than opposite sides, such that electronic element can be stably fixed on the two solder layers to prevent the tombstone of the electronic element. | 03-26-2009 |
