摘要:
The present invention discloses a Universal Serial Bus (“USB”) device capable of remote wake-up through a special mask circuit. The USB device includes an Ethernet port to transmit a first signal in response to a predetermined network packet, a wake-up pin to transmit a second signal in response to a remote wake-up trigger signal, a remote wake-up circuit to generate a wake-up signal in response to either the first signal or the second signal, and a mask circuit to receive the wake-up signal and delay transmission of the wake-up signal to a remote USB host for a predetermined delay time.

A bulk transfer control method of a universal serial bus (USB) device includes a timer for counting transmission time of a buck transfer. When the transmission time counted reaches a transmission time setting value, a trigger signal is issued to a transfer end event generator. Then, the transfer end event generator issues a transfer end event signal to a data processing unit so as to end the bulk transfer. Moreover, a USB device and its bulk transfer control circuit are also provided.

The present invention discloses a Universal Serial Bus (“USB”) device with a power saving mechanism. The USB device includes an Ethernet physical layer, a USB physical layer, a wakeup packet detection circuit configured to receive a wakeup packet from the Ethernet physical layer, and a standby power saving control circuit. The standby power saving control circuits selects a connection speed from the group including EEE, 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps, wherein the standby power saving control circuit is able to connect to a wakeup device at the selected connection speed, so that the USB system can enter an optimal power saving status while in a standby mode. The connection speeds are defined in the specification of IEEE 802.3az as 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, 1000BASE-T, 10GBASE-T, 1000BASE-KX, 10GBASE-KX4, 10GBASE-KR.
摘要:
An Ethernet physical layer test system and method, wherein a signal pattern generator is utilized to generate repeatedly a signal pattern frame required by the test items of the Ethernet physical layer according to a transmission procedure of a medium access controller; meanwhile, the signal pattern generator generates a control signal for switching a multiplexer, so as to control the transmission of a signal pattern frame. The Ethernet physical layer receives the signal pattern frame and outputs a test packet to a measurement instrument via a twisted-pair, for testing and analyzing quality of signals output by the Ethernet physical layer. Through the application of this Ethernet physical layer test system and method, the time required for testing the Ethernet physical layer can be effectively reduced, thus simplifying the complexity of an algorithm in testing the Ethernet physical layer.
