    摘要: A bi-directional communications interface includes a source multiplexer for connecting to a video source. The source multiplexer includes a source multiplexer input port for receiving an analog video signal from the video source, a source multiplexer output port for driving the video source with an upstream data signal, and a source multiplexer bi-directional port for coupling the analog video signal from the source multiplexer input port to the video cable and for coupling the upstream data signal from the video cable to the source multiplexer output port.

    摘要: A controlled impedance bus includes a pair of bus traces that carry a transmission minimized differential signal (TMDS). Two or more buffer output terminals. Each output terminal includes a pair of pads connected to the pair of bus traces such that unused pads create minimal stubs on the pair of bus traces. Two or more buffer input terminals are provided. Each of the buffer input terminals includes a pair of connector traces that extend substantially perpendicular to the bus traces. At least one connector is connected to a first end of the pair of connector traces of one of the buffer input terminals. At least one buffer device is connected to a second end of the pair of connector traces and to the pair of pads of one of the buffer output terminals. The buffer device provides signals on the pair of bus traces when enabled by an enable input.

    摘要: A modular interface allows new functionalities to be added to a television receiver. A module can be added to the television receiver through the interface that will enable additional functionalities on the television. The interface allows copy protection of digital video and audio content by incorporating HDCP technology, thereby also allowing the manufacturer of the interface to control the access to the interface.

    摘要: System and method for changing a current input terminal of a user device. In one embodiment of the invention, a method includes receiving an input terminal change request, requesting that a current input terminal be changed from a first input terminal to a second input terminal. The method may further include determining if an external device is connected to the second input terminal. In one embodiment of the invention, the second input terminal includes a connection detection switch. The method may also include switching to the second input terminal when the connection detection switch indicates an external device connection and skipping the second input terminal when the connection detection switch indicates no external device connected according to one embodiment of the invention.

    摘要: A digital TV (DTV) incorporates a TV white space device capable of operating on plural TV frequencies and responsive to the DTV processor to send a signal to an interfering white space device nearby the DTV that is interfering with a TV channel being presented on the TV. The signal sent from the TV white space device to the interfering white space device alters operation of the interfering white space device so as to reduce if not eliminate the interference.
