    Abstract: A sensing data reading device and method applied to an electronic device are provided. The sensing data reading device supports a first operating system and a second operating system. The sensing data reading device includes: a sensing module for generating at least a sensing data; a hub coupled to the sensing module and adapted to read at least a sensing data; and a control circuit coupled to the sensing module and the hub to read at least a sensing data directly as soon as the electronic device switches to the first operating system and send a control signal to the hub as soon as the electronic device switches to the second operating system such that the hub reads the at least a sensing data. The sensing data reading device and method dispense with a switch circuit, thereby saving circuit area and cutting costs.

    Abstract: A hot-swappable electronic device and a method for preventing crash of the same are provided. The method includes: detecting, by a controller, whether or not the hot-swappable electronic device is in a power-on state; detecting, by the controller, whether or not a power connection port is connected to an alternating current power source when the hot-swappable electronic device is in the power-on state; detecting, by a first sensor and a second sensor, whether or not a first battery leaves a first battery installation groove and a second battery leaves a second battery installation groove when the power connection port is not connected to the alternating current power source; and lowering, by the controller, a system power consumption of the hot-swappable electronic device when the first battery leaves the first battery installation groove or the second battery leaves the second battery installation groove.

    Abstract: An electronic device including a control unit, an embedded controller and a battery module is provided. During a booting procedure of the electronic device, the embedded controller reads a reported battery capacity and a battery temperature of the battery module. The embedded controller determines whether the reported battery capacity is lower than a minimum capacity, and further determines whether the battery temperature is lower than a minimum temperature when the reported battery capacity is lower than the minimum capacity. When the reported capacity is lower than the minimum capacity and the battery temperature is also lower than the minimum temperature, the embedded controller generates a fake battery capacity, according to which an operating system of the electronic device performs various operations. In this application, the battery module of the electronic device remains working even when the electronic device is in a low-temperature and low-battery activation environment.

    Abstract: Provided is a protection method for use in fan malfunctions, applicable to an electronic device, and effective in preventing the electronic device from being overheated. The electronic device includes a fan, temperature sensor, and processor. The method includes steps of: limiting the processor's performance, upon determination that not only is the fan's rotation speed greater than or equal to a predetermined upper rotation speed limit, but the electronic device's temperature sensed by the temperature sensor is also greater than or equal to a predetermined upper temperature limit; determining whether the fan's rotation speed is less than or equal to a first restored rotation speed when the fan's rotation speed is determined to be less than the predetermined upper rotation speed limit; and stopping the limiting of the processor's performance when the fan's rotation speed is determined to be less than or equal to the first restored rotation speed.
