20110113174 | PORTABLE DEVICE HAVING PLUG DETECTOR AND CONTROL METHOD OF DETECTING THE PORTABLE DEVICE - A reciprocating plug detector is configured at the connector of a portable device and is pushed to generate a control signal when the portable device is plugged into a host system. A controller of the portable device then performs a command when receiving the control signal. When the portable device is unplugged from the host system, the reciprocating plug detector may also be used for generating the control signal and before the portable device totally leaves the host system, the controller performs other pre-defined command during these few milliseconds. The portable device is implemented with a variety of computer controllability and provided with power-failure protection for data. | 05-12-2011 |
20120063052 | Electronic system with secured data accessing - A first electronic device includes an electromagnetic component embedded in its connecting port and controlled to be activated during data transmission between the first electronic device and a second electronic device to which the first electronic device is connecting, or during memory accessing of the first electronic device. As the electromagnetic component is activated, an attraction force exists between the two connecting ports of the first and the second electronic devices such that a user of the first electronic device will feel a resistance when he/she tries to disconnect the first electronic device from the second electronic device. | 03-15-2012 |
20120079404 | METHOD FOR CREATING AND SEARCHING A FOLDER IN A COMPUTER SYSTEM - In a computer system, a folder is created so as to include at least one non-textual image description, such as image or audio, a textual description, or any combination thereof. A target folder may also be searched according to at least one non-textual image feature, such as image or audio, a textual feature, or any combination thereof. | 03-29-2012 |
20120153891 | PORTABLE ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND CIRCUIT AND METHOD FOR CHARGING RECHARGEABLE BATTERY THEREOF - In a method of providing operating current to a portable electronic apparatus, a first connection terminal of the portable electronic apparatus is connected to a second connection terminal of a host, and interface type of the second connection terminal is determined. If the interface type is USB 2.0, the host provides a first operating current to the portable electronic apparatus for performing data read/write, and an internal rechargeable battery of the portable electronic apparatus provides a second operating current to the portable electronic apparatus. If the interface type is USB 3.0, the host provides a third operating current to the portable electronic apparatus for performing data read/write, and the third operating current selectively performs a charge process on the rechargeable battery. If the interface type is Wi-Fi, the rechargeable battery provides a fourth operating current to the portable electronic apparatus. | 06-21-2012 |
20120196460 | CONNECTOR MODULE CAPABLE OF PROTECTING CONDUCTIVE RESILIENT COMPONENTS THEREOF - A connector module is disclosed in the present invention. The connector module includes a housing defining an interior chamber, and a substrate installed inside the interior chamber of the housing. A first set of metal contacts and a second set of metal contacts are disposed on the substrate. The connector module further includes a sliding component slidably relative to a side of the substrate, and at least one conductive resilient component installed on the sliding component. The conductive resilient component is hidden inside the housing when the sliding component slides into the interior chamber of the housing, and the conductive resilient component is exposed outside the housing to electrically contact the second set of metal contacts when the sliding component slides out of the interior chamber of the housing. | 08-02-2012 |
20120233427 | Data Storage Device and Data Management Method Thereof - An embodiment of the invention provides a data storage device and data management method thereof. The data storage device is coupled to a host, and includes a storage media having data sectors for storing data and a controller. The controller is coupled to the storage media for sequentially receiving one or more read commands and corresponding one or more logical addresses thereto, reads a plurality of first data sectors from the storage media according to the read commands and the corresponding logical addresses, outputs data of the first data sectors to the host, calculates a valid duration required for the one or more read commands, calculates an average data throughput according to the number of the first data sectors and the valid duration, and determines whether the average data throughput exceeds a predetermined threshold. When the average data throughput exceeds the predetermined threshold, the controller performs a blocking procedure to prevent the storage media from being accessed. | 09-13-2012 |
20120290761 | USB Converter and Related Method - A Universal Serial Bus (USB) converter used in a USB system comprises at least one USB package processing unit and a processor. Each USB package processing unit is for receiving input packets from a corresponding first USB device according to a first protocol, converting the input packets into output packets of a second protocol, and outputting the output packets to a second USB device according to the second protocol. The processor is for selectively placing each USB package processing unit of the at least one USB package processing unit in a standby mode according to a corresponding detection signal indicating detected electrical state of a corresponding pin of the USB system connected to the corresponding first USB device. | 11-15-2012 |
20120297158 | MASS STORAGE DEVICE CAPABLE OF ACCESSING A NETWORK STORAGE - A mass storage device capable of accessing a network storage in response to an access request of an electronic device electrically connected to the mass storage device, the mass storage device includes a first memory unit comprising a file management table for storing a first mapping relationship between a logical address and a network address of the network storage, and a controller for receiving an access request corresponding to the logical address from the electronic device and accessing a file in the network storage according to the network address through a network interface. | 11-22-2012 |
20130129162 | Method of Executing Software Functions Using Biometric Detection and Related Electronic Device - A method of executing software functions on an electronic device having biometric detection includes receiving touch input from one or more fingers of a user on a fingerprint sensor of the electronic device and recognizing one or more fingerprints and recognizing a gesture in the received touch input. The method further includes performing a fingerprint comparison to compare the one or more recognized fingerprints to contents of a database, performing a gesture comparison to compare the recognized gesture to contents of the database, determining a matching software function according to results of the fingerprint comparison and the gesture comparison, and executing the matching software function. | 05-23-2013 |
