Abstract:
The method includes receiving a block address and an erase command output from a controller, and changing, until an erase operation performed according to the erase command on a block corresponding to the block address is completed, a parameter value related to the erase operation. The method further includes storing information corresponding to a finally changed parameter value, and transmitting the information to the controller according to a command output from the controller.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a mobile terminal with a Near Field Communication (NFC) function, the mobile terminal wirelessly connecting to a reader using NFC. An NFC controller wirelessly connects to the reader through an NFC antenna, and receives an Applet Identification (AID) signal and a function control signal used to control operational states of a plurality of functions provided to the mobile terminal from the reader. A base band unit receives the function control signal, and controls the operational states of functions selected from among the plurality of functions provided to and operated in the mobile terminal. A Universal Integrated Circuit Card (UICC) unit connects to the NFC controller, and records information about the subscriber of the mobile terminal. A Secure Element (SE) encodes and decodes the signal, which is transmitted and received between the mobile terminal and the reader, using a security algorithm.
Abstract:
A detergent supply apparatus comprising a storage space adjacent to a washing space in which washing is performed, a detergent bottle seat provided in the storage space and adapted to receive a detergent bottle containing a liquid detergent, a detergent reservoir in fluid communication with the detergent bottle, and a connecting part adapted to fix a portion of the detergent bottle to the detergent reservoir such that the liquid detergent can flow through the connecting part and into the detergent reservoir by gravitational force.
Abstract:
A display apparatus is provided to operate a light emitting unit with a small number of power drivers. The display apparatus has a plurality of light emitting units, a power driver, whose total provided therein is less than the total of light emitting units, that outputs driving power to the light emitting units. A power switch is switched on and off to supply the driving power to one of the plurality of light emitting units, and a controller controls the power switch to sequentially supply the driving power to the plurality of light emitting units.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for generating synthesis audio signals are provided. The method includes decoding a bitstream; splitting the decoded bitstream into n sub-band signals; generating n transformed sub-band signals by transforming the n sub-band signals in a frequency domain; and generating synthesis audio signals by respectively multiplying the n transformed sub-band signals by values corresponding to synthesis filter bank coefficients.
Abstract:
