Serial data communication methods and apparatus using a single line are provided. The data communication methods may include: setting a rising edge of a serial pulse signal so that a cycle of the serial pulse signal begins therefrom; setting a falling edge of the serial pulse signal within the cycle of the serial pulse signal according to a data value recorded within the cycle of the serial pulse signal; and transmitting a packet formed by combining at least one cycle of the serial pulse signal in series via a single line.

A charging controller includes a control node having a control voltage generated thereon for controlling a first current to a charged device and a second current to a reference device. Feedback loops are formed with amplifiers and a pull-up current source and control transistors, or with amplifiers and transfer transistors, for maintaining the second current at a constant current level during a constant current mode and for maintaining a voltage of the charged device at a constant voltage level during a constant voltage mode. Use of a pull-down current source at the control node is avoided for preventing damage to the charged device.

A multi-interface card includes smart card interface, memory card interface, card controller and memory module. The smart card interface interfaces with a smart card host using a smart card protocol. The memory card interface interfaces with a memory card host using a memory card protocol. The card controller controls the smart card host and memory card host so that the smart card host and the memory card host simultaneously interface with the smart card and the memory card interfaces, respectively. The memory module stores data transferred from the smart card host and memory card host. The multi-interface card simultaneously supports the smart card interface and the memory card interface. Thus, the one multi-interface card can support a subscriber authentication function and a data storage function.

An encryption processor, for storing encrypted data in a memory chip of a memory card, includes a FIFO memory for sequentially outputting m-bit data in response to a first signal, and an encryption key generator for generating m-bit encrypted keys (m being a positive integer) in response to a second signal and for sequentially outputting the keys in response to a third signal. A logic operator performs a logic operation on the data from the FIFO memory with the keys from the encryption key generator during a data write operation to sequentially encrypt the data. The logic operator performs a logic operation on the encrypted data received from a memory interface with the keys output from the encryption key generator during a data read operation in order to sequentially decode the encrypted data. The second signal is simultaneously generated with one of the write command or the read command.

An electronic device includes a universal serial bus (USB) interface therein. This USB interface is configured to support at least first and second different USB interface standards. These different interface standards are selected by the electronic device in response to comparing a voltage level of a signal provided to said USB interface relative to a reference voltage generated within the electronic device. The signal provided to the USB may be a power supply signal, the first USB standard may be a USB 2.0 interface standard and the second USB standard may be an inter-chip USB interface standard.

An apparatus and method for controlling a supply voltage of a multiple interface card includes a first voltage adjustment unit, a second voltage adjustment unit, an internal circuit, a first voltage controller, and a second voltage controller. The first voltage controller adjusts a first supply voltage to a first internal supply voltage used as an operating voltage of the internal circuit and supplies the first internal supply voltage to the internal circuit. The second voltage adjustment unit adjusts a second supply voltage to a second internal supply voltage used as an operating voltage of the internal circuit and supplies the second internal supply voltage to the internal circuit. The first voltage controller detects the first supply voltage and, according to the first supply voltage, either applies the first supply voltage to the first voltage adjustment unit or blocks the first supply voltage from the first voltage adjustment unit. The second voltage controller detects the second supply voltage and, according to the detected voltage, either applies the second supply voltage to the second voltage adjustment unit or blocks the second supply voltage from the second voltage adjustment unit.
