Abstract:
A retractable cable mouse includes a casing, a cable reel member, a connector, a sliding member, and an elastic element. The connector is coupled with the cable reel member and contacted with the sliding member. The elastic element is contacted with the sliding member and coupled with the casing. When the sliding member is moved to a first position, the connector is stored within the casing, and the sliding member is sustained against elastic element, so that the elastic element is compressed. When the sliding member is pulled out of the casing, the compressed elastic element provides an elastic force. In response to the elastic force, the sliding member is moved to a second position. Meanwhile, a perforation of the casing is blocked by sliding member, so that the external dust or foreign material fails to be introduced into the internal portion of the casing.

The present invention relates to an input device having an indicating lamp. The input device includes a case and an electronic lighting module. The electronic lighting module includes a printed circuit board, an electronic lighting element and a light guide post. The light guide post has a crooked shape. Due to the crooked shape, the light beams emitted by the electronic lighting element are no longer focused as a spot on the surface of the case.

A harmonic-rejection modulation device is provided, which includes a phase splitter, a low pass filter, and a modulator. Based on a square wave, the phase splitter generates a plurality of unfiltered local oscillating signals having phase angles of 0°, 30°, 90°, 120°, 180°, 210°, 270° and 300°, respectively. The low pass filter filters the high frequency components of the unfiltered local oscillating signals to generate a plurality of local oscillating signals having phase angles of 0°, 30°, 90°, 120°, 180°, 210°, 270° and 300°, respectively. The modulator modulates a baseband signal with the local oscillating signals, wherein the third harmonics of the local oscillating signals are eliminated by the modulation process of the modulator. The invention also provides a method of modulating a baseband signal.

The second transistor provides a high impedance to resist signals. The load stage converts the modulated signal to a second gained signal according to a first gain coefficient of the impedance element. The first transistor is a parallel pnp BJT, and the second transistor is a vertical npn bipolar BJT.
