摘要： An ExpressCard having USB connection has a card case having two opposite first and second end portions and two opposite lateral portions. A card connector is formed at the first end portion of the card case and having a USB interface. Flash chips are implemented in the card case. A USB flash controller implemented in the card case and connected between the USB interface and the flash chips in order to provide a data access to the flash chips through the USB interface. A USB socket, in form factors of Mini-USB or Extended Mini-connector-type, is implemented in the card case and connected to the USB flash controller in order to provide a data access to the one or more flash chips therethrough. An extended Universal-Serial Bus (EUSB) host enters a suspend mode rather than poll an ExpressCard that is busy performing a memory or other operation, thereby saving power.

摘要： A multi-functional electronic card capable of detecting removable cards includes at least one functional device, a controller, a host interface, and a removable card interface. The host interface has a card detecting pin fixed at a level representing that a card is inserted. The removable card interface has an elastic switch connected to the device detecting pin of the controller. The controller detects event and status of a card insertion and removal by a level change of the device detecting pin for setting the event and status in a status register, and informs the host device through the host interface so that the host device reads the status register to determine whether the removable card is inserted or removed.

摘要： A multi-function electronic card has a host interface, a multi-functional controller and a plurality of function devices. Each function device is connected to the host via the host interface by issuing an interrupt request to the multi-functional controller. The multi-functional controller has an interrupt queue and an interrupt status register, each bit of the interrupt status register corresponding to a function device. When a function device issues an interrupt request, an identification number of the function device is stored into the interrupt queue, and only when all the bits in the interrupt status register are zeros, a corresponding bit in the interrupt status register is set as 1 for issuing an interrupt request to the host. When the host has serviced the function device, the interrupt queue is updated and the interrupt status register is cleared.

摘要： An electronic card capable of changing communication functionality of a coupled electronic device is disclosed. A removable interface has at least a card detection pin which is set at a first state or a second state based on the coupled electronic device. A functional module provides a communication functionality via an access bus or a specific application bus based on whether the card detection pin is at the first state or the second state. A bridge is provided for bridging and converting signals of the interface bus on the removable interface into signals of the access bus or the specific application bus, or vice versa. A multiplexer device selects signals of the access bus or signals of the specific application bus based on whether the card detection pin is at the first state or the second state for being switched to the interface bus.

摘要： There is disclosed a global positioning system electronic card capable of dynamically plugging navigation information, which includes a multi-interface controller, a dynamic insertion/removal card interface for being dynamically inserted with a memory card stored with map data, a GPS module, and a host interface. When the memory card is inserted into the dynamic insertion/removal card interface, the dynamic insertion/removal card interface notifies the multi-interface controller for further informing the host device through the host interface to read the map data in the memory card, thereby displaying a corresponding map. After determining the positioning coordinate, the GPS module notifies the multi-interface controller for further informing the host device through the host interface to read the positioning coordinate determined by the GPS module, which is compared with the map data read previously, thereby labeling a coordinate position on the map.
