Abstract:
A foldable electronic device (100) has at least two components hinged together by a hinge assembly. The foldable electronic device includes: a cover (10), a rotating element (20), an elastic element (30) and a frame (40), a set of magnetic elements (50) and a body (60). The rotating element has two notches defined therein. The elastic element has a latching portion. The elastic element is fixed in the rotating element. The frame slidably engages with the rotating element. The frame is engaged with the cover. The rotating element rotatably connects with the body. The magnetic elements make the cover close relative to the body. When the latching portion of the rotating element engages in different notches of the rotating element, magnetic force between the magnetic elements decreases so as to open the cover relative to the body.

Abstract:
A method for adaptive selection of floating taps in a decision feedback equalizer including the steps of (A) determining values for a predefined metric for tap positions within a range covered by a decision feedback equalizer (DFE) and (B) setting one or more floating taps of the DFE to tap positions based upon the values of the predefined metric.
Abstract:
A multi-phase adaptive decision feedback equalizer minimizes post-cursor inter-symbol interference in a current data bit based on values of subsequent data bits in a data communication system. In one form, the receiver includes a plurality of modules each having a respective adaptive decision feedback equalizer. A processor responsive to output signals from each of the plurality of modules generates a plurality of coefficient values. The adaptive decision feedback equalizer has a plurality of taps receiving a respective output signal from one of the modules and a respective coefficient value to generate a respective correction signal. The correction signals are summed with the data signal and processed to recover the data. Pre-calculation of coefficients permits rapid selection of data. Multi-phase operation permits higher data frequencies.
Abstract:
In a receiver, an AC-coupling solution uses a fully integrated circuit for simultaneously providing both baseline wander compensation and common-mode voltage generation. Usefully, an integrated capacitor is placed between the receiver input pin and the input buffer, and a high resistive impedance element is connected to the internal high-speed data node after the capacitor. An on-chip voltage generation and correction circuit is connected to the other side of the impedance element to generate a common-mode voltage, and to provide dynamic, fine adjustment for the received data voltage level. The voltage correction circuit is controlled by the feedback of data detected by the clock and data recovery unit (CDRU) of the receiver. The feedback data passes through a weighting element, wherein the amount of feedback gain is adjustable to provide a summing weight and thereby achieve a desired BLW compensation. Register bits are used to control an on-chip reference voltage generator that consists of a resistor ladder to generate the reference voltage.
Abstract:
A method of power down control (PDC) for a display device is to be implemented by a processor in a power down controller of the display device. The power down controller includes a main system, a main system power source, and a PDC power source. The method includes the steps of: (A) receiving power from the PDC power source, determining if the main system is to be activated, and proceeding to step (B) if affirmative; (B) turning on the main system power source, and activating the main system; (C) determining if operation in a power down mode is intended, and proceeding to step (D) if affirmative; and (D) turning off the main system power source to operate in the power down mode.
