Abstract: A power system capable of detecting a foreign object, includes a power supplier side, a power receiver side, and a cable. The power supplier side includes a power converter, a foreign object detection and control circuit, and a pull-up circuit. The power converter supplies a supply voltage to the power receiver side according to a power supply control signal. The foreign object detection and control circuit generates the power supply control signal for controlling the power converter, and generates a foreign object detection and control signal according to a voltage at a supplier transmission node of the power supplier side, for determining whether a foreign object exists in the power receiver side. The pull-up circuit adjusts a level of a supply current which is supplied from the supplier transmission node to the power receiver side.

Abstract: The invention provides a bio-detection device, including a carrier, a plurality of spacers, an electronic circuit, and a package layer, wherein an open platform is formed. The carrier includes a test region and a signal transmission wiring, wherein the test region is configured to carry a fluid under test. The spacers are located on the test region and electrically connected to two different voltage levels to form a capacitor for sensing a capacitance of the fluid. The spacers are connected to the signal transmission wiring. The electronic circuit receives and processes a sensing signal corresponding to the capacitance of the fluid. The package layer covers a portion of the carrier but does not cover the test region. The open platform is formed whereby a user can easily put in the fluid. The open platform has a bottom which includes the test region, and an area of the open platform is defined by the spacers and the package layer.

Abstract: A power supply system includes a power supplier circuit and a power receiver circuit. The power supplier circuit supplies a power via a communication interface compatible with a first communication interface specification or a second communication interface specification. The first communication interface specification includes a delay threshold. After the power supplier circuit is coupled to the power receiver circuit, the power supplier circuit supplies the power after a first delay period. The power receiver circuit confirms whether the power supplier circuit is coupled to the power receiver circuit via a coupling confirmation step according to the first communication interface specification. The power receiver circuit confirms whether the power supplier circuit is compatible with the first communication interface specification or the second communication interface specification according to whether the first delay period is greater than the delay threshold.
