20130124845 | EMBEDDED DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - An embedded device including a random access memory (RAM) and a processor is provided. The processor includes a processor core and an authentication module. The RAM stores data-to-be-authenticated. The data includes a program code to be executed by the processor core. The authentication module periodically accesses and authenticates the data-to-be-authenticated in the RAM. When the authentication module deems that the program code in the RAM loses its integrity, the authentication module interrupts the processor from further executing the program code. | 05-16-2013 |
20130129022 | Method and Associated Apparatus of Communication Parameter Detection - A method of communication parameter detection for detecting a temporal length of a guard interval of cyclic messages in a communication is provided. The method includes: searching peaks of an autocorrelation signal in the communication signal, and providing a peak for each cyclic message; sorting a time difference between two consecutive peaks to one of bins of a histogram, and determining the temporal length of the guard interval according to a result of the histogram; while a peak is found, providing a signal average according to an average of the autocorrelation signal over an average calculating period, comparing whether a ratio of the peak to the signal average is greater than a threshold, and accordingly detecting whether the communication signal carries valid information. | 05-23-2013 |
20130132651 | ELECTRONIC SYSTEM AND MEMORY MANAGING METHOD THEREOF - A method for managing a flash memory including a plurality of blocks is provided. Each block includes a plurality of sets of a first page and a second page configured in pair. In response to a request for writing target data into a target block, at least one cache block is selected from the blocks. The target data is then written into the first pages in the at least one cache block. When a write-back condition is established, the target data is written from the cache block back to the target block. | 05-23-2013 |
20130141363 | TOUCH SENSING DEVICE AND APPARATUS AND TOUCH SENSING METHOD - A touch sensing device is provided. The touch sensing device includes a multiplexer and a control unit, and is electrically connected to a touch panel. The touch panel includes a plurality of first-direction electrodes; a plurality of second-direction electrodes; and a dielectric layer, for generating at least one electric field change corresponding to at least one touch point in response to the at least one touch point. The at least one electric field change is generated at an overlapping region of the first-direction and second-direction electrodes. The multiplexer is electrically connected to the touch panel via the first-direction and second-direction electrodes, and selectively performs voltage driving or voltage sensing for the first-direction and second-direction electrodes. In response to an operating mode change, the control unit changes a control signal to be transmitted to the multiplexer and receives a sense signal from the multiplexer. | 06-06-2013 |
20130145217 | TESTING METHOD AND TESTING APPARATUS FOR TESTING FUNCTION OF ELECTRONIC APPARATUS - A method for testing a function of an electronic apparatus is provided. The method includes steps of: searching for a location corresponding to the function to be tested, sending a command according to the location to perform the function to be tested, and determining whether an error occurs in the function according to a response from the function in response to the command. | 06-06-2013 |
20130179728 | REPAIR METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ABNORMAL-ERASE MEMORY BLOCK OF NON-VOLATILE FLASH MEMORY - A repair method for an abnormal-erase memory block of a non-volatile flash memory is provided. The method includes steps of: sequentially scanning bit data in a page of a block when reading data in a NAND flash; determining whether the page is an abnormal-erase page; setting logic “0” bit data in the page to logic “1” when the page is an abnormal-erase page; and re-erasing the block. | 07-11-2013 |
20130185470 | DETECTION METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR HOT-SWAPPING OF SD CARD - A detection method for hot-swapping of a Secure Digital (SD) card is provided. The detection method includes steps of: transmitting an inquiry command to an card reader at a predetermined frequency; receiving a command return message replied in response to the inquiry command; determining whether the SD card is removed or plugged according to the command return message; and detecting a hot-swapping status of the SD card in real-time to provide an accurate status of the SD card for upper-layer applications. | 07-18-2013 |
20130185471 | DETECTION METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR HOT-SWAPPING OF SD CARD - A detection method for detecting a hot-swapping status of a Secure Digital (SD) card is provided. The detection method includes steps of: transmitting an inquiry command to the SD card at a predetermined frequency when an application requiring the hot-swapping status of the SD card is activated; receiving a current command return message replied in response to the inquiry command, wherein the current command return message includes information indicative of a presence or information indicative of an absence of the SD card; determining the hot-swapping status according to a previous command return message and the current command return message; and replying the determined hot-swapping status to the application. | 07-18-2013 |
20130185484 | FILE PROGRAMMING METHOD AND ASSOCIATED DEVICE FOR NAND FLASH - A file programming method for a flash memory is provided. The method includes steps of: obtaining a section description file and corresponding allocation information and user data while generating burning files, wherein the section description file includes section description information of at least one section and the allocation information includes the number that the burning file is to be generated; determining a file type corresponding to a section file according to the section description information; and generating the burning files utilizing the user data according to section description information, the number that the burning file is to be generated corresponding to the section description information, and the file types corresponding to the section files. | 07-18-2013 |
20130185745 | METHOD, SYSTEM AND TELEVISION FOR PICTURE REPRODUCTION - A method, system, and television for television picture reproduction via a network is provided. The television receives picture reproduction request information sent from a terminal device, real-time encodes video and audio data inputted from a multimedia server, respectively packs the encoded video and audio data into video data packets and audio data packets, and sends the video data packets and the audio data packets to the terminal device. The terminal device performs playback according to the video data packets and the audio data packets. Thus, the method accomplishes television picture reproduction through a network to fulfill short-distance picture reproduction requirements without occupying resources and network bandwidth of the multimedia server. | 07-18-2013 |
