20090237335 | DISPLAY DEVICE ABLE TO OPERATE IN LOW POWER PARTIAL DISPLAY MODE - The display device includes a display cell including liquid crystals and a matrix of electrodes arranged in lines and columns in a closed cavity. The lines and columns define display cell pixels. The display device includes a control circuit for lines and columns for display of data on the display cell. In complete display mode, all lines and columns are addressed at several voltage levels by successive line-by-line multiplexing. In low power partial display mode, two groups of adjacent lines are joined so they are each controlled by a respective line control signal from the control circuit. The N lines and groups of lines are simultaneously addressed in active manner at two voltage levels. N line control signals include a series of N-bit binary line words that change every determined period of time, T, so 2 | 09-24-2009 |

20130163395 | WATERPROOF WATCH PUSHBUTTON - Sealed pushbutton for a wristwatch comprising a pushbutton head that is movable between a resting position and an active position, a first fixed conductive element and a second movable conductive element. It comprises an elastically deformable capsule that hermetically covers the first fixed conductor, wherein an upper surface of the capsule is in physical contact with a lower surface of the pushbutton head. The capsule can be located in a non-deformed position when the pushbutton head is in its resting position and in a deformed position when the pushbutton head is in its active position, and the first and second conductive elements form a capacitive or resistive switch device, wherein the switch is in open state when the pushbutton head is in its resting position and in closed state when the pushbutton head is in its active position. | 06-27-2013 |
20140230525 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE PROVIDED WITH AUTOMATIC LEAK DETECTION MEANS - The electronic device is provided with an automatic leak detection means, notably for a gas leak, in the case of the device. The automatic leak detection means includes a pressure sensor, a temperature sensor and a calculation unit connected to the pressure sensor and to the temperature sensor. The calculation unit, which is a microcontroller, the pressure sensor and the temperature sensor are arranged inside the case. In operation, the microcontroller checks, based on measurements performed by the pressure sensor and the temperature sensor over time, whether the variation in pressure in the case is within a defined margin proportional to the variation in temperature to determine whether or not the case has a sufficient degree of sealing. | 08-21-2014 |
