ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18244984 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device that includes a power supply, an infrared receiver, a first integrated circuit (IC) to drive the IR receiver based on the power supplied, and a second IC to supply power to a field-effect transistor (FET). When a preset control command is received through the IR receiver, the first IC turns on the second IC to drive the FET, which is in a stopped state while the second IC is turned off, by turning on the second IC to supply power to the electronic device.

  • The electronic device has a power supply to provide power.
  • It includes an infrared receiver to receive infrared rays.
  • A first integrated circuit (IC) is responsible for driving the infrared receiver based on the power supplied.
  • A second IC supplies power to a field-effect transistor (FET).
  • When a preset control command is received through the infrared receiver, the first IC turns on the second IC.
  • The second IC then drives the FET, which is initially in a stopped state.
  • By turning on the second IC, power is supplied to the electronic device.

Potential Applications:

  • Remote control devices: The infrared receiver can be used to receive control commands from a remote control, allowing the electronic device to be controlled wirelessly.
  • Power management systems: The first and second ICs can be used in power management systems to control the supply of power to different components based on control commands received through the infrared receiver.

Problems Solved:

  • Power control: The electronic device solves the problem of efficiently controlling the power supply to different components by using the first and second ICs to drive the FET based on control commands received through the infrared receiver.

Benefits:

  • Wireless control: The use of the infrared receiver allows for wireless control of the electronic device.
  • Efficient power management: The first and second ICs enable efficient power management by controlling the supply of power to the FET based on control commands received through the infrared receiver.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device comprising: a power supply to supply power; an infrared rays (IR) receiver; a first integrated circuit (IC) to drive the IR receiver based on the power supplied from the supply; and a second IC to supply power to a field-effect transistor (FET), wherein, when a preset control command is received through the IR receiver, the first IC turns on the second IC to drive the FET, which is connected to the second IC and is in a stopped state while the second IC is in a turned-off state, by turning on the second IC to thereby supply power to the electronic device.
