摘要： A flash-memory-card reader reads and writes multiple types of flash-memory cards, including CompactFlash, and the smaller SmartMedia, MultiMediaCard, Secure Digital, and Memory Stick. A converter chip converts the different card signals for transfer to a host personal computer (PC). Serial-to-parallel data conversion is performed for the smaller card formats with serial data interfaces, but not for CompactFlash with a parallel-data interface. A single slot has a 50-pin connector for CompactFlash cards or passive adapters. The passive adapters have the CompactFlash form factor and a smaller connector fitting smaller flash cards. Passive adapters have no components but simply wire the smaller connector to the CompactFlash connector. A pin mapping allows card-type detection by sensing the LSB address pins of the CompactFlash interface. A larger CompactFlash reader has multiple slots for each card type. The reader is connected to the PC by a cable, or located within the PC chassis in a drive bay. A stand-alone reader copies images from the flash-memory card to a removable disk media. Pressing a button initiates image transfer.

摘要： A logic device having a state machine for serially transferring data between an AT-compatible mother board and a keyboard having a microcontroller for scanning the keyboard matrix, without the need for a microcontroller on the mother board. A timer is provided to signal a transmission time-out error, and to indicate the start delay before beginning to transfer data when transmitting to the keyboard. Transmission to the keyboard begins by asserting the clock and serial data bit to the keyboard, and waiting for the start delay to expire. The state machine has a chain of 22 states for transferring an 11-bit data frame, the state transitions occurring after the clock from the keyboard or mouse changes polarity. A time-out error state is entered if a timer indicates that a 32 ms period of time has elapsed. Both transmit and receive operations may time-out with the same delay, and enter the same error state. Finally, after the 11-bit chain is completed, and a stop bit sent or received, the state machine terminates for a transmit, or waits for the end of the stop bit if reading from the keyboard. The state machine may be modified to transfer data with a mouse pointing device as well as a keyboard by using multiplexers to select the clock and data from either the mouse of the keyboard, depending upon the transfer device.
摘要翻译：一种具有状态机的逻辑设备，用于在AT兼容主板和具有用于扫描键盘矩阵的微控制器的键盘之间串行传送数据，而不需要母板上的微控制器。提供定时器来发送传输超时错误，并且在发送到键盘时开始传送数据之前指示开始延迟。通过将键盘的时钟和串行数据位置位，并等待启动延迟到期，对键盘的传输开始。状态机具有用于传送11位数据帧的22个状态链，在时钟之后从键盘或鼠标发生的状态转换改变极性。如果定时器指示已经过了32 ms的时间段，则输入超时错误状态。发送和接收操作都可能以相同的延迟超时，并输入相同的错误状态。最后，在完成11位链和发送或接收的停止位之后，状态机终止发送，或者从键盘读取时等待停止位的结束。可以通过使用多路复用器从键盘的鼠标中选择时钟和数据来修改状态机以通过鼠标指示设备以及键盘传送数据，这取决于传送设备。

摘要： A front-panel display of a PC has several 7-segment light-emitting diode (LED) displays. A serial link is provided from an I/O port on the PC motherboard to the front panel display. This serial link uses the turbo-in line that is normally used to light the turbo LED indicator. A microcontroller on the front-panel display samples the turbo-in line and extracts serial data once a start sequence is detected. The serial data is converted to parallel form, and then encoded into a code that can be decoded by the 7-segment LED displays. The microcontroller drives this code to the 7-segment displays so that the serial data from the I/O port on the PC motherboard is displayed by the 7-segment displays on the front panel. Software on the PC periodically writes to the I/O port to update the data bit transmitted. This software can thus alter the front panel display. Information displayed on the front panel can include the temperature of the CPU or power reduction in suspend modes. The display can be made to blink to alter the user when a critical temperature has been reached. Attributes may be sent with the serial data to designate that the display be blinked. Since the amount of data transmitted is small and not critical, the transmission is quick and causes the turbo Led to flicker only briefly.
摘要翻译： PC的前面板显示屏有几个7段发光二极管（LED）显示屏。从PC主板上的I / O端口到前面板显示屏提供串行链接。该串行链路使用通常用于点亮涡轮LED指示灯的涡轮增压线。一旦启动序列被检测到，前面板显示器上的微控制器对turbo-in行进行采样并提取串行数据。将串行数据转换为并行形式，然后编码为可由7段LED显示屏解码的代码。微控制器将此代码驱动到7段显示器，以便来自PC主板上的I / O端口的串行数据由前面板上的7段显示屏显示。 PC上的软件定期写入I / O端口，以更新发送的数据位。因此，该软件可以改变前面板显示。显示在前面板上的信息可以包括CPU的温度或暂停模式下的功率降低。当达到临界温度时，显示屏可以闪烁以改变用户。可以使用串行数据发送属性，以指定显示屏闪烁。由于传输的数据量很小并且不是关键的，因此传输速度很快，导致涡轮增益LED仅短暂闪烁。

摘要： A plurality of flash (solid state) media coupled to a single form factor connector to provide a module, i.e., referred to as a SmartStack module, that can be coupled directly to a device with a SmartStack module controller. The SmartStack module does not include a controller and is controlled from the host side. The form factor connector would typically be a CompactFlash (CF) form factor or some other form factor used in a variety of devices. The SmartStack memory module in a preferred embodiment includes a write protect switch that prevents certain portions of the memory within the SmartStack module from being written to. In addition, a portion of the flash memory will be allocated to the secure area for storing information to implement various forms of security. Another portion of the flash memory is allocated to store optional biometric information such as a user's fingerprint or retinal scan information, etc. In a preferred embodiment, the SmartStack module is a flash memory card in a CF Type I or II format; however, the card will not be compatible with standard CF readers, but will be compatible with SmartStack readers. Larger memory sizes will be available as larger flash memory chips become available.
摘要翻译：耦合到单个形状因子连接器以提供可以使用SmartStack模块控制器直接耦合到设备的模块（即，称为SmartStack模块）的多个闪存（固态）介质。 SmartStack模块不包括控制器，并由主机端控制。形状因子连接器通常是CompactFlash（CF）形状因子或者在各种装置中使用的其它形状因子。在优选实施例中的SmartStack存储器模块包括写保护开关，其防止SmartStack模块内的存储器的某些部分被写入。此外，闪存的一部分将被分配到用于存储信息的安全区域以实现各种形式的安全性。闪存的另一部分被分配用于存储诸如用户的指纹或视网膜扫描信息等的可选生物特征信息。在优选实施例中，SmartStack模块是CF型I或II格式的闪存卡; 然而，该卡将不兼容标准的CF读卡器，但将与SmartStack读卡器兼容。随着更大的闪存芯片的可用性，更大的存储容量将可用。
