Abstract:
A belt tension adjustment mechanism for use in an optical module of a scanning apparatus includes a sliding member, a fixture member, a supporting member and a resilient member. The sliding member is arranged on a surface of the optical module and movable on the surface of the optical module. The fixture member is used to fix the belt. The supporting member supports the belt. By means of the resilient member, a tension is applied onto the belt.
Abstract:
By combining a sensing module having a lens and an image sensor with a carriage module having a mirror set, a reading device of a scanning apparatus is assembled. The sensing module further includes two channels at bilateral sides of the lens and two guiding slots disposed on external sides of the channels. The carriage module further includes two linear tracks corresponding to the channels and two bolt hole pedestals corresponding to the guiding slots. The sensing module is glided on the carriage module when the linear tracks are embedded in corresponding channels, thereby correcting the desired magnification.

Abstract:
A 3D display panel includes a plurality of first and second viewing angle pixels arranged along a first direction for displaying first and second viewing angle images respectively. The first viewing angle pixels and the second viewing angle pixels are interlacedly arranged along a second direction. A method for controlling pixel brightness of the 3D display panel includes determining a brightness value of a first block of a first viewing angle pixel according to a brightness value of the first viewing angle pixel and a brightness value of a second viewing angle pixel next to the first viewing angle pixel along the second direction, and determining a brightness value of a second block of the first viewing angle pixel according to the brightness value of the first block of the first viewing angle pixel and the brightness value of the first viewing angle pixel.
Abstract:
A toner cartridge and a printer using the same and a related protection management method are provided. In the present disclosure, by additionally equipping a hardware configuration of identification unit in the toner cartridge, the equipped identification unit would provide a (unique) ID code representing the toner cartridge in response to a setting code (randomly) determined by a controller of the printer. Only when the setting code and the ID code are the same, and when the toners filled inside the toner cartridge are not empty yet, is the printer allowed to normally operate; otherwise, the printer is stopped from using the toner cartridge, and the user is asked to replace a new genuine toner cartridge. Accordingly, it is assured that the internal components of the printer won't be damaged by the unidentified, low-priced dummy toner cartridges, and the print quality and service lifetime of the printer would be maintained.
Abstract:
An alternate radio transmitter includes a processor, a modulator, a PLL unit and a radio transmission unit. The processor provides a digital signal. The modulator modulates the digital signal, thus providing at least two modulated signals. The PLL unit mixes the modulated signals, thus providing an output signal. The radio transmission unit transmits the output signal.
Abstract:
An adaptive switch mode LED driver provides an intelligent approach to driving multiple strings of LEDs. The LED driver determines an optimal current level for each LED channel from a limited set of allowed currents. The LDO driver then determines a PWM duty cycle for driving the LEDs in each LED channel to provide precise brightness control over the LED channels. Beneficially, the LED driver minimizes the power dissipation in the LDO circuits driving each LED string, while also ensuring that the currents in each LED string are maintained within a limited range. A sample and hold LDO allows PWM control over extreme duty cycles with very fast dynamic response. Furthermore, fault protection circuitry ensures fault-free startup and operation of the LED driver.
