20120110217 | HIGH SPEED INTERCHIP HSIC USB MONITORING - Disclosed herein is a system for monitoring high speed interchip (HSIC) universal serial bus (USB) signals in a device comprising a USB controller configured to output first USB transceiver macro-cell (UTMI+) signals, an HSIC PHY transceiver configured to receive first UTMI+ signals from the USB controller and to convert and transmit received first UTMI+ signals as first HSIC signals, and to receive second HSIC signals and transmit them as second UTMI+ signals to the USB controller, a UTMI+ conversion block configured to receive first and second UTMI+ signals and to transform the received first and second UTMI+ signals to corresponding first and second ULPI signals, and transmit first and second ULPI signals, the first and second ULPI signals being equivalent to the first and second HSIC signals, and a ULPI PHY transceiver configured to receive the first and second ULPI signals and transmit corresponding first and second USB signals. | 2012-05-03 |
20120110218 | Auto-Detection and Mode Switching for Digital Interface - A method of operating a microphone system includes the steps of monitoring an I/O terminal to detect whether a signal on that terminal achieves a pre-defined logic level during a monitoring period. The I/O terminal and a second I/O terminal are configured to one of a hardware mode or a communications-bus mode depending on whether the pre-defined logic level is detected. A microphone system includes two I/O terminals and an automatic detection and mode switching circuit, as well as a communications bus interface circuit and a hardware control circuit. The mode automatic detection and mode switching circuit couples the two I/O terminals to either the communications bus interface circuit or the hardware control circuit in response to the logic level detected on one of the I/O terminals during a monitoring period. | 2012-05-03 |
20120110219 | DATA PROCESSING CIRCUIT AND DATA PROCESSING APPARATUS - According to one embodiment, a data processing circuit included in a data processing apparatus together with plural peripheral circuits including a peripheral circuit configured to output first data includes a processing unit and a stop unit. The processing unit subjects the first data to data processing according to a specified processing algorithm to obtain second data. The stop unit stops the output of the second data to the outside of the data processing circuit in a stop period excluding a period from the time when the plural peripheral circuits finish starting in specified start order until the time when a specified time elapses after the plural peripheral circuits finish stopping in specified stop order. | 2012-05-03 |
20120110220 | COMMUNICATION SPEED CONTROL APPARATUS AND COMMUNICATION SPEED CONTROL METHOD - A communication speed control apparatus for controlling communication between a host device and an external device in accordance with a high-speed communication mode or a low-speed communication mode includes a list storage unit configured to store a list of specification information of external devices that are incompatible with the host device when data communication is carried out using the high-speed communication mode and a specification information obtainment unit configured to obtain external device specification information from the external device. A device determination unit is configured to determine if the external device specification information obtained from the external device corresponds to an incompatible external device based on the stored specification information and a communication speed control unit sets a data communication speed to the low-speed communication mode if the device determination unit determines that the external device in incompatible with the host device. | 2012-05-03 |
20120110221 | APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING KEY INPUT USING INTERRUPT - Provided is an apparatus for processing a key input using an interrupt. When a key is pressed, a key input signal and a key interrupt signal may be generated and transmitted to a control unit which may process the pressed input key. When the control unit receives the key interrupt signal, the control unit may identify an input key corresponding to the key input signal and process the identified input key. | 2012-05-03 |
20120110222 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DYNAMICALLY ENABLING AND DISABLING WRITE XFR_RDY - A method for dynamically enabling and disabling use of XFR_RDY is disclosed herein. In one embodiment of the invention, such a method includes receiving a write command at a target and determining whether XFR_RDY is enabled or disabled for the write command. In the event XFR_RDY is disabled, the method determines whether one or more buffers are available at the target. If at least one buffer is available, the method processes the write command by writing data associated with the write command to the one or more buffers. The method then returns information indicating the number of buffers that are still available at the target after completing the write command. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also disclosed and claimed herein. | 2012-05-03 |
20120110223 | LOCK-LESS BUFFER MANAGEMENT SCHEME FOR TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORK APPLICATIONS - A buffer management mechanism in a multi-core processor for use on a modem in a telecommunications network is described herein. The buffer management mechanism includes a buffer module that provides buffer management services for one or more Layer 2 applications, wherein the buffer module at least provides a user space application interface to application software running in user space. The buffer management mechanism also includes a buffer manager that manages a plurality of separate pools of tokens, wherein the tokens comprise pointers to memory areas in external memory. In addition, the buffer management mechanism includes a custom driver that manages Data Path Acceleration Architecture (DPAA) resources including buffer pools and frame queues to be used for user plane data distributing. | 2012-05-03 |
