Abstract:
An induction heating cooker and a control circuit therefor are provided. The cooker includes a switch element and an inductive coil, which is coupled between a power voltage and a first terminal of the switch element. A second terminal of the switch element is coupled to a common voltage. The control circuit includes first and second comparators and a pulse generator. The first comparator receives voltages of two terminals of the inductive coil and thus outputs a trigger signal. The second comparator receives a reference voltage and a voltage of the first terminal of the switch element, and enables a fading signal when the voltage of the first terminal is higher than the reference voltage. When the trigger signal is enabled, the pulse generator outputs a pulse to control the switch element. When the fading signal is enabled, the pulse generator reduces a pulse width of the pulse.
Abstract:
A circuit for sensing a differential capacitance includes a charge-storing circuit to generate a first output voltage and a second output voltage related to capacitances at two terminals of the differential capacitance, respectively, an operational amplifier to amplify the difference between the first and second output voltages to generate a sensing value, a first sampling capacitor having one terminal connected to the negative input terminal and the other terminal receiving the first or second output voltage, and a second sampling capacitor having one terminal connected to the negative input terminal and the other terminal switched to the output terminal of the operational amplifier. The second sampling capacitor stores a non-ideal error value to offset the non-ideal effect of the operational amplifier imparted on the sensing value.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a touch pad operable with multi-objects and a method of operating such a touch pad. The touch pad includes a touch structure for sensing touch points of a first and a second object and a controller for generating corresponding touching signals and related position coordinates. Moreover, the controller calculates at least two movement amount indexes according to coordinate differences between these position coordinates, thereby generating a movement amount control signal to control behaviors of a software object.

The present invention provides an image displacement detection method, which employs the center of a 1st frame as a starting point, and the previous image displacement vector or the inversed direction displacement of the adjusted previous image displacement vector as the image matching reference block; next, proceeds the matching with the 2nd frame to calculate the image displacement vector between the 1st frame and the 2nd frame. Thus, the method of the present invention can relatively increase about twice the maximum tracking speed of the sensor.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a programmable frequency divider having one n-bit adder and one n-bit D Flip Flop. These are used to transform the import clock to the target clock. The adder takes one adjustment parameter and one return signal as a basis to create the first output signal, with the possibility to program the adjustment parameter. The D Flip Flop and the adder create a cycle, which is used to receive the first output signal and its import clock to create the second output signal. The second output signal is separated into a return signal and the target signal. The D Flip Flop sends the return signal back to the adder, which will make addition calculations under the adjustment parameter, finally giving out the target clock with the target signal as a calculation basis.
