Abstract:
A portable electronic device is provided. Connector includes the first and data pins. Processor includes input and output pins and detection pin coupled to the input pin. First resistor is coupled between the detection pin and first voltage. When the processor detects that the first and second pins of charger are coupled to the first and second data pins of the connector, the processor provides switching signal to the selector, so as to couple the first and second data pins of the connector to the input and output pins of the processor, respectively, and to provide second voltage different from the first voltage, to the second pin of the charger via the output pin. The processor obtains charging current value of the charger according to voltage of the detection pin. The charger includes second resistor coupled between the first and second pins.

The measuring unit is adapted to measure a parameter resulted from the contact of the first contact terminal of the jack with the first contact of the plug through the first contact terminal when the plug is inserted into the jack. The switching unit is adapted to selectively connect the first contact terminal of the jack electrically to the data signal transceiving unit or the measuring unit. The processing unit executes a corresponding function according to the measured parameter when the measured parameter has a first predetermined value.
Abstract:
The invention provides a method for an electronic device for automatically detecting and identifying a peripheral device. The electronic device comprises a connector having a first pin and a second pin and connects to a peripheral device through the connector. The method comprises the steps of determining whether the peripheral device is connected to the connector; reading a first state of the first pin and the second pin when determining that the peripheral device is connected to the connector; setting a voltage of the first pin to a first voltage level and then reading a second state of the first pin and the second pin; and identifying the peripheral device according to the first state and the second state. The invention also provides an electronic device and an electronic system utilizing the above-mentioned method.

Abstract:
An electronic device includes a jack, a voltage processing unit, a measuring unit, a data transmission unit, and a switching unit. The jack receives a plug of an electronic accessory and has first and second contact terminals. The voltage processing unit detects whether a voltage is present at the second contact terminal when a second contact of the plug is in contact with the second contact terminal. The measuring unit measures a parameter resulted from the contact of the first contact terminal with a first contact of the plug. The data transmission unit transmits to or receives from the electronic accessory a data signal through the first contact terminal. The switching unit selectively connects the first contact terminal electrically to the data transmission unit or measuring unit according to whether the voltage is present or not.
Abstract:
An electronic device and a method for driving an internal function block of a processor of the electric device to operate in a linear region. The electronic device comprises a processor having two multiple purpose pins (MPP1 and MPP2), an external device connection port, and two_resistance elements. The external device connection port is further connected to the MPP1 and at a tested voltage. The first resistance element is connected between a high level voltage and the external device connection port. The second resistance element is connected between the external device connection port and the MPP2. The processor is configured to output the high or low level voltage at MPP2 when the tested voltage is in a non-linear operating region, to guarantee the tested voltage to a linear operating region of the function block which is coupled to the MPP1 by a multiplexing design.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a defogging and defrosting devices for the protective lens of camera, which includes a heater that is coupled to a control circuit panel, a thermal gasket that is in contact contacting with the heater, receives the heat from the heater and transmits the heat to the glass or mirror object which contacts with in order to avoid and prevent the loss of lucidity of the glass or mirror object due to humidity. The defogging and defrosting device is installed on the body of the camera instead of on the protective lens in order to avoid shading the camera view and to facilitate the removal of protective lens while adjusting the focus of the camera. It also facilitates the replacement of the protective lens of the camera.
