電腦周邊裝置及其運作方法Computer peripheral device and its operation method

本發明係關於一種電腦周邊裝置,特別是一種具有通用序列匯流排連接介面的電腦周邊裝置。The present invention relates to a computer peripheral device, and more particularly to a computer peripheral device having a universal serial busbar connection interface.

在目前的電子裝置連接介面中,通用序列匯流排(universal serial bus,USB)已經逐漸成為越來越重要的一種規格,USB不僅是連接電腦系統與電腦周邊裝置的一個匯流排標準介面,也是一種輸入輸出介面技術規格,被廣泛應用於個人電腦和可攜式電子裝置等各類資訊、通訊產品中,並已擴展至家電、多媒體、遊戲機等相關領域的應用。In the current electronic device connection interface, the universal serial bus (USB) has gradually become an increasingly important specification. USB is not only a bus interface standard interface for connecting computer systems and computer peripheral devices, but also a kind of The input/output interface specifications are widely used in various information and communication products such as personal computers and portable electronic devices, and have been extended to applications in home appliances, multimedia, game consoles and other related fields.

USB介面不僅體積小,適用於各類型的電子裝置,除了可以作為資料傳輸的介面外,USB本身也包含電源傳輸的功能。因此,在應用上也增加許多的便利性,例如供電以及充電的功用。而且,為了擴大應用的層面,USB的連接器規格更發展出不同形式的規格,例如TYPE-A、TYPE-B、MICRO或MINI等不同的USB連接器。The USB interface is not only small in size, but also suitable for various types of electronic devices. In addition to being used as a data transmission interface, the USB itself also includes a power transmission function. Therefore, there is also a lot of convenience in application, such as power supply and charging function. Moreover, in order to expand the application level, USB connector specifications have developed different forms of specifications, such as TYPE-A, TYPE-B, MICRO or MINI and other different USB connectors.

除了上述的優點之外,USB在資料傳輸上也具有優異的表現,原先標準的USB 1.1的最大傳輸頻寬為12Mbps,後來升級到USB 2.0時,最大傳輸頻寬提升為480Mbps。而近期推出的USB 3.0更從480Mbps提升到5Gbps。In addition to the above advantages, USB also has excellent performance in data transmission. The original standard USB 1.1 has a maximum transmission bandwidth of 12 Mbps. Later, when it was upgraded to USB 2.0, the maximum transmission bandwidth was increased to 480 Mbps. The recently introduced USB 3.0 has been upgraded from 480Mbps to 5Gbps.

新的USB 3.0規格設計更兼容於先前的USB 2.0與USB 1.1版本,同時為了更進一步的提升傳輸速度,USB 3.0從以往的USB 2.0為單向雙工匯流排的形式,升級為支援全雙工模式的傳輸。可以理解的是,USB 3.0連接介面相較於USB 2.0連接介面新增了5個接點,分別為SSRX+、SSRX-、SSTX+、SSTX-與GND_DRAIN,其中SSRX+與SSRX-為數據輸入接點,SSTX+與SSTX-為數據輸出接點,這些新增加的接點並排在目前USB 2.0原有的4個接點(VBus、GND、D+與D-)的後方,並且可支援光纖傳輸。若採用光纖傳輸,USB 3.0的傳輸速度更可達到25Gbit/s。The new USB 3.0 specification is more compatible with previous USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 versions, and in order to further increase the transfer speed, USB 3.0 from the previous USB 2.0 is a one-way duplex bus that is upgraded to support full-duplex mode transmission. Understandably, the USB 3.0 connection interface has five new contacts compared to the USB 2.0 connection interface, namely SSRX+, SSRX-, SSTX+, SSTX- and GND_DRAIN, where SSRX+ and SSRX- are data input contacts, SSTX+ With SSTX- as the data output contact, these newly added contacts are placed side by side with the current four USB 2.0 contacts (VBus, GND, D+ and D-) and can support fiber transmission. With fiber optic transmission, USB 3.0 can transfer at speeds up to 25 Gbit/s.

在供應電源的功能上,USB 3.0提供的供電標準由原先的500mA提高至900mA,同時也採用了多層電源管理技術,可以為不同設備提供不同的電源管理方案。In terms of power supply function, USB 3.0 provides a power supply standard from 500mA to 900mA. It also uses multi-layer power management technology to provide different power management solutions for different devices.

但是隨著USB規格的升級,即使USB 3.0能支援先前的規格(如USB 2.0和USB 1.1等),其在使用上也必需先進行USB規格的判斷程序,否則相關的功能將無法適當的支援。而且目前在市場上,USB 3.0的推廣仍尚未完全普及,許多使用中的電子產品仍然是採用USB 2.0的規格。並且,針對USB規格的判斷,主要的判斷方式是在電腦系統端的電路板上,額外的電性配置一USB3.0控制晶片(host controller),用以對外接的裝置端USB規格進行判斷。然而,當外接的裝置端USB規格是USB 3.0,而電腦系統端僅是USB 2.0的規格時,由於在電腦系統中並不具有USB 3.0控制晶片的配置,將導致電腦系統端無法辨識USB 3.0的外接裝置,或者是直接以支援USB 2.0的方式來驅動此USB 3.0外接裝置的部分功能,如此將容易造成USB 3.0外接裝置的部分功能或特性無法達到最佳化,或者是在長期使用下導致USB 3.0外接裝 置的損壞。例如,當USB 3.0外接裝置插設於電腦系統端的USB 2.0連接器時,由於供電標準的不同,將導致USB 3.0外接裝置的充電時間延長或者是在播放音效時產生雜音等。However, with the upgrade of the USB specification, even if USB 3.0 can support the previous specifications (such as USB 2.0 and USB 1.1), it is necessary to first perform the USB specification judgment procedure, otherwise the related functions will not be properly supported. And currently in the market, the promotion of USB 3.0 is still not fully popular, and many of the electronic products in use are still using USB 2.0 specifications. Moreover, for the judgment of the USB specification, the main judgment method is that on the circuit board of the computer system side, an additional USB3.0 control controller (host controller) is additionally configured for judging the USB specification of the external device. However, when the USB device specification of the external device is USB 3.0, and the computer system is only the USB 2.0 specification, since the configuration of the USB 3.0 control chip is not included in the computer system, the computer system cannot recognize the USB 3.0. External devices, or directly support some functions of this USB 3.0 external device in support of USB 2.0, which will easily lead to the optimization of some functions or features of the USB 3.0 external device, or cause USB under long-term use. 3.0 external device Damaged. For example, when a USB 3.0 external device is plugged into a USB 2.0 connector on the computer system, due to different power supply standards, the charging time of the USB 3.0 external device may be prolonged or noise may be generated when the sound is played.

如此,造成USB 3.0外接裝置只能適用於配備有USB 3.0控制晶片與連接器的電腦系統,而無法兼容於只具備USB 3.0規格以下的電腦系統,導致USB 3.0外接裝置在使用上受到相當大的限制。此外,若是為了克服上述因素,在USB 3.0規格以下的電腦系統中額外地配置USB 3.0控制晶片,往往又造成額外的成本負擔,並且在電腦系統能支援USB 3.0時,又顯得多餘。As a result, the USB 3.0 external device can only be applied to a computer system equipped with a USB 3.0 control chip and a connector, and cannot be compatible with a computer system having only a USB 3.0 specification or lower, resulting in a considerable use of the USB 3.0 external device. limit. In addition, in order to overcome the above factors, the additional configuration of the USB 3.0 control chip in the computer system of the USB 3.0 specification or less often causes an additional cost burden, and is redundant when the computer system can support the USB 3.0.

鑒於以上的問題,本發明提供一種電腦周邊裝置及其運作方法,藉以解決習知具有較高USB規格的電腦周邊裝置不適用於只具有較低USB規格的電腦系統,使電腦周邊裝置在使用上受到限制的問題。In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a computer peripheral device and a method for operating the same, so as to solve the conventional computer peripheral device having a higher USB specification, which is not suitable for a computer system having only a lower USB specification, so that the computer peripheral device is used.

有關本發明的特徵、實作與功效,茲配合圖式作最佳實施例 詳細說明如下。Regarding the features, implementations and effects of the present invention, the preferred embodiment is in conjunction with the drawings. The details are as follows.

請參照第1圖所示,為本發明所揭露的第一實施例的電腦周邊裝置10的方塊示意圖。Please refer to FIG. 1 , which is a block diagram of a computer peripheral device 10 according to a first embodiment of the present invention.

本發明第一實施例所揭露的電腦周邊裝置10適用於一電腦系統20,此電腦系統20上電性設置有至少一系統端連接介面210。當電腦周邊裝置10可透過電性插設於電腦系統20之系統端連接介面210來接收電源及/或傳輸電性訊號。The computer peripheral device 10 disclosed in the first embodiment of the present invention is applicable to a computer system 20, and the computer system 20 is electrically disposed with at least one system end connection interface 210. The computer peripheral device 10 can receive power and/or transmit electrical signals through the system-side connection interface 210 electrically inserted into the computer system 20.

電腦周邊裝置10包括電性配置於一主機板上的一裝置端連接介面100、一控制單元130以及一阻抗單元140,電腦周邊裝置10即透過裝置端連接介面100可拆卸的電性插設於電腦系統20之系統端連接介面210,其中裝置端連接介面100包含一電源腳位110以及一接地汲極腳位120的USB 3.0連接介面,因此當電腦周邊裝置10電性插設於電腦系統20時,裝置端連接介面100的電源腳位110將電性連接於電腦系統20之一電源準位,並且在接地汲極腳位120上形成一電壓準位。控制單元130可以是但並不侷限於中央處理器(central processing unit,CPU)或微控制器,控制單元130電性連接於裝置端連接介面100之接地汲極腳位120,用以動態偵測接地汲極腳位120之電壓準位,並且依據接地汲極腳位120之電壓準位判斷電腦系統20之系統端連接介面210的規 格。阻抗單元140分別電性連接於裝置端連接介面100之電源腳位10與接地汲極腳位120,用以選擇性地拉低接地汲極腳位120之電壓準位。The computer peripheral device 10 includes a device end connection interface 100 electrically disposed on a motherboard, a control unit 130, and an impedance unit 140. The computer peripheral device 10 is detachably electrically inserted through the device end connection interface 100. The system end connection interface 210 of the computer system 20, wherein the device end connection interface 100 includes a power supply pin 110 and a USB 3.0 connection interface of the ground bungee pin 120, so that the computer peripheral device 10 is electrically inserted into the computer system 20 The power pin 110 of the device-side connection interface 100 is electrically connected to one of the power levels of the computer system 20 and forms a voltage level on the ground-drain pin 120. The control unit 130 can be, but is not limited to, a central processing unit (CPU) or a microcontroller. The control unit 130 is electrically connected to the ground bungee pin 120 of the device end connection interface 100 for dynamic detection. The voltage level of the ground bungee pin 120 is determined, and the gauge of the system end connection interface 210 of the computer system 20 is determined according to the voltage level of the ground bungee pin 120. grid. The impedance unit 140 is electrically connected to the power pin 10 and the ground bunge pin 120 of the device end connection interface 100 for selectively lowering the voltage level of the ground bunge pin 120.

其中值得說明的是,本發明所揭露之電腦周邊裝置10的裝置端連接介面100是USB3.0規格的連接介面,因此其中的電源腳位110是向下相容於USB 2.0規格的電源腳位(VBUS),而接地汲極腳位120則屬於USB 3.0規格的接地汲極腳位(GND_DRAIN)。因此,當本發明的電腦周邊裝置10電性插設於電腦系統20之系統端連接介面210後,如果所此電腦系統20不支援USB 3.0規格,而僅支援USB 2.0規格,那麼本發明之接地汲極腳位120必然沒有辦法在電腦系統20的系統端連接介面210上連接到對應的接地點。但是,又因為電腦系統20仍支援USB 2.0規格,因此本發明的電腦周邊裝置10的電源腳位110仍然會透過電腦系統20的系統端連接介面210連接到電腦系統20的一個USB電壓電源,而電源腳位110再透過阻抗單元140連接到形成空接(floating)的接地汲極腳位120時,便會在接地汲極腳位120上產生一個來自電腦系統20端的USB電壓電源的電壓準位。此時,電腦周邊裝置10的控制單元130便可以偵測到接地汲極腳位120的電壓準位,進而判斷目前電腦周邊裝置10所插入的電腦系統20無法支援USB 3.0規格,而僅支援USB 2.0規格。It should be noted that the device end connection interface 100 of the computer peripheral device 10 disclosed in the present invention is a USB 3.0 specification connection interface, so that the power pin 110 is downward compatible with the USB 2.0 specification power pin. (VBUS), while the ground bungee pin 120 belongs to the USB 3.0 specification ground bungee pin (GND_DRAIN). Therefore, when the computer peripheral device 10 of the present invention is electrically inserted into the system-side connection interface 210 of the computer system 20, if the computer system 20 does not support the USB 3.0 specification and only supports the USB 2.0 specification, the ground of the present invention The bungee pin 120 must not be connected to the corresponding ground point on the system side connection interface 210 of the computer system 20. However, since the computer system 20 still supports the USB 2.0 specification, the power pin 110 of the computer peripheral device 10 of the present invention is still connected to a USB voltage source of the computer system 20 through the system-side connection interface 210 of the computer system 20, and When the power pin 110 is further connected to the floating ground pin 120 through the impedance unit 140, a voltage level of the USB voltage source from the computer system 20 is generated on the ground pin 120. . At this time, the control unit 130 of the computer peripheral device 10 can detect the voltage level of the ground bungee pin 120, and then judge that the computer system 20 inserted in the computer peripheral device 10 cannot support the USB 3.0 specification, and only supports the USB. 2.0 specifications.

從另一方面來說,如果電腦系統20支援USB 3.0規格,那麼本發明之電腦周邊裝置10的接地汲極腳位120必然會在電腦系統20的系統端連接介面210上連接到對應的接地點,使得接地汲極 腳位120不會形成空接,而是形成接地的電壓準位。此時,控制單元130便可以偵測到接地汲極腳位120的電壓準位,進而判斷電腦系統20可支援USB 3.0規格。On the other hand, if the computer system 20 supports the USB 3.0 specification, the ground bungee pin 120 of the computer peripheral device 10 of the present invention is necessarily connected to the corresponding ground point on the system end connection interface 210 of the computer system 20. To make the ground bungee Pin 120 does not form a null, but forms a grounded voltage level. At this time, the control unit 130 can detect the voltage level of the ground bungee pin 120, and then determine that the computer system 20 can support the USB 3.0 specification.

值得說明的是,本發明的阻抗單元140可以是一個被動阻抗元件,例如電阻,或者是本發明的阻抗單元140也可以是一個主動阻抗元件,例如電晶體,但不以此為限。使用者可以依據實際應用時的不同需求或是條件對此阻抗單元140作出不同的選擇或設計,而本發明僅係以阻抗單元140做為實施例的說明,然熟悉此項技術領域之人士,可依據實際使用需求而令本發明所述之阻抗單元140有不同類型或連接的組合,其中阻抗單元140的功用乃是當電腦系統20支援USB 3.0的規格時,在電源腳位110與接地汲極腳位120之間形成通路,並將接地汲極腳位120的電壓準位拉低到接地。It is to be noted that the impedance unit 140 of the present invention may be a passive impedance component, such as a resistor, or the impedance unit 140 of the present invention may also be an active impedance component, such as a transistor, but not limited thereto. The user may make different selections or designs for the impedance unit 140 according to different needs or conditions in actual application, and the present invention only uses the impedance unit 140 as an embodiment, but those skilled in the art, The impedance unit 140 of the present invention may have different types or combinations of connections according to actual use requirements. The function of the impedance unit 140 is when the computer system 20 supports the USB 3.0 specification, at the power pin 110 and the ground 汲A path is formed between the poles 120 and the voltage level of the ground bungee pin 120 is pulled down to ground.

本發明更可以是僅直接利用電腦周邊裝置10上既有的微控制器作為本發明的控制單元130,因為本發明僅需單純判斷特定腳位之電壓準位,便可以判斷電腦系統20的系統端連接介面210的規格,因此並不需要額外的配置USB 3.0控制晶片以及複雜的電路設計。The invention can also directly use the existing microcontroller on the computer peripheral device 10 as the control unit 130 of the present invention. Because the present invention only needs to judge the voltage level of the specific pin, the system of the computer system 20 can be judged. The specifications of the interface 210 are connected, so no additional configuration of the USB 3.0 control chip and complex circuit design is required.

可以理解的是,本發明的電腦週邊周邊裝置10中,裝置端連接介面100可以是USB 3.0的TYPE-A的連接介面,或者是TYPE-B的連接介面,然並不以此為限。It can be understood that, in the computer peripheral peripheral device 10 of the present invention, the device end connection interface 100 may be a connection interface of the USB 3.0 TYPE-A or a connection interface of the TYPE-B, but is not limited thereto.

本發明之電腦周邊裝置的功效在於,直接透過電腦周邊裝置中既有的控制單元,例如微控制器(MCU),加上電路的連接設計, 於控制單元上額外拉一個腳位電性連接至裝置端連接介面的接地汲極腳位,讓本發明之電腦周邊裝置在不需額外安裝USB 3.0控制晶片的前提下,即可主動地判斷電腦系統的系統端連接介面的USB規格,除了可以節省USB 3.0控制晶片的安裝成本與費用外,同時讓電腦周邊裝置可以適用於不同USB規格的電腦系統,並且還能達到預期的效能表現。The function of the computer peripheral device of the present invention is to directly pass through the existing control unit in the peripheral device of the computer, such as a microcontroller (MCU), and the connection design of the circuit.

請參照第2圖及第3圖,第2圖為本發明第二實施例之電腦周邊裝置30的方塊示意圖,第3圖為本發明第二實施例之電腦周邊裝置30的運作方法的步驟流程圖。Please refer to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 , FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a computer peripheral device 30 according to a second embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a flow chart of a method for operating the computer peripheral device 30 according to the second embodiment of the present invention. Figure.

本發明所揭露的第二實施例與第一實施例在結構上大致相同,兩者間的差異在於,本發明第二實施例所揭露的電腦周邊裝置30更包含一運算放大器(operational amplifier,OP-AMP)150,運算放大器150分別電性連接於裝置端連接介面100與控制單元130。並且,在第二實施例所揭露的電腦周邊裝置30的運作上,首先以裝置端連接介面100電性插設於電腦系統20的系統端連接介面210,使裝置端連接介面100的電源腳位110電性連接於電腦系統20的電源準位,並且在裝置端連接介面100的接地汲極腳位120形成一電壓準位(第3圖的步驟401)。接著,以阻抗單元140選擇性的拉低接地汲極腳位120之電壓準位(第3圖的步驟403),若電腦系統20的系統端連接介面210為USB 3.0規格,則電腦周邊裝置30的阻抗單元140會拉低接地汲極腳位120的電壓準位;反之,若電腦系統20的系統端連接介面210為USB 3.0以下的規格,則電腦周邊裝置30的接地汲極腳位120則會形成空接狀態而 維持原本的電壓準位。The second embodiment of the present invention is substantially the same as the first embodiment. The difference between the two is that the computer peripheral device 30 disclosed in the second embodiment of the present invention further includes an operational amplifier (OP). -AMP) 150, the operational amplifier 150 is electrically connected to the device end connection interface 100 and the control unit 130, respectively. Moreover, in the operation of the computer peripheral device 30 disclosed in the second embodiment, the device end connection interface 100 is first electrically inserted into the system end connection interface 210 of the computer system 20, so that the device end is connected to the power supply pin of the interface 100. 110 is electrically connected to the power level of the computer system 20, and forms a voltage level at the ground bungee pin 120 of the device-side connection interface 100 (step 401 of FIG. 3). Next, the voltage level of the ground bungee pin 120 is selectively pulled down by the impedance unit 140 (step 403 of FIG. 3). If the system end connection interface 210 of the computer system 20 is a USB 3.0 specification, the computer peripheral device 30 The impedance unit 140 pulls down the voltage level of the ground bungee pin 120; otherwise, if the system end connection interface 210 of the computer system 20 is a USB 3.0 or lower specification, the ground bungee pin 120 of the computer peripheral device 30 is Will form a null state Maintain the original voltage level.

然後,再透過控制單元130偵測接地汲極腳位120的電壓準位的變化(第3圖的步驟405),讓控制單元130可依據電壓準位判斷電腦系統20的系統端連接介面210的規格是否為USB 3.0。接著,控制單元130對應電壓準位產生一功率控制訊號(第3圖的步驟407),並且傳送功率控制訊號至運算放大器150(第3圖的步驟409)。最後,運算放大器150依據功率控制訊號調整放大功率(第3圖的步驟411)。Then, the control unit 130 detects the change of the voltage level of the ground bungee pin 120 (step 405 of FIG. 3), so that the control unit 130 can determine the system end connection interface 210 of the computer system 20 according to the voltage level. Is the specification USB 3.0? Next, the control unit 130 generates a power control signal corresponding to the voltage level (step 407 of FIG. 3), and transmits the power control signal to the operational amplifier 150 (step 409 of FIG. 3). Finally, the operational amplifier 150 adjusts the amplification power in accordance with the power control signal (step 411 of FIG. 3).

基於前述第一實施例的電腦周邊裝置10的設計,本發明第二實施例所揭露的電腦周邊裝置30更可以延伸出不同的應用,其不僅可以獨立判斷電腦系統20的系統端連接介面210的規格為USB 2.0或USB 3.0,更可以利用此判斷結果產生不同的功效。如先前所提及的,USB 2.0與USB 3.0的供電標準不同,因此本發明第二實施例所揭露的電腦周邊裝置30可進一步透過運算放大器150針對不同規格的系統端連接介面產生不同的偏壓特性,藉以得到不同的功率放大效果與應用功效。Based on the design of the computer peripheral device 10 of the foregoing first embodiment, the computer peripheral device 30 disclosed in the second embodiment of the present invention can further extend different applications, which can not only independently determine the system end connection interface 210 of the computer system 20 The specification is USB 2.0 or USB 3.0, and you can use this judgment result to produce different effects. As mentioned above, the power supply standard of the USB 2.0 is different from that of the USB 3.0. Therefore, the computer peripheral device 30 disclosed in the second embodiment of the present invention can further generate different bias voltages for different system end connection interfaces through the operational amplifier 150. Features, in order to get different power amplification effects and application effects.

請參照第4圖和第5圖,例如,在本發明第三實施例所揭露的電腦周邊裝置50中,除了承襲第二實施例的電腦周邊裝置30的相關組成元件及運算放大器150之外,另外還配置了電性連接於運算放大器150的一揚聲器160。因此,當第三實施例所揭露的電腦周邊裝置50以裝置端連接介面100電性插設於電腦系統20的系統端連接介面210,並且透過控制單元130判斷系統端連接介面210的規格後,控制單元130傳送功率控制訊號至運算放 大器150,使運算放大器150可依據系統端連接介面210的規格對應調整放大功率,並且以調整後的放大功率驅動揚聲器160(第5圖的步驟601)。Referring to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, for example, in the computer peripheral device 50 disclosed in the third embodiment of the present invention, in addition to the related constituent elements of the computer peripheral device 30 and the operational amplifier 150 of the second embodiment, A speaker 160 electrically connected to the operational amplifier 150 is also disposed. Therefore, when the computer peripheral device 50 disclosed in the third embodiment is electrically inserted into the system end connection interface 210 of the computer system 20 by the device end connection interface 100, and the specification of the system end connection interface 210 is determined by the control unit 130, The control unit 130 transmits the power control signal to the operational amplifier The amplifier 150 allows the operational amplifier 150 to adjust the amplification power according to the specification of the system-side connection interface 210, and drives the speaker 160 with the adjusted amplification power (step 601 of FIG. 5).

其中,若控制單元130判斷系統端連接介面210為USB 3.0規格,控制單元130將發送功率控制訊號至運算放大器150,令運算放大器150配合USB 3.0的供電標準對應調整放大功率,並且以調整後的放大功率驅動揚聲器160;反之,若控制單元130判斷系統端連接介面210為USB 3.0以下的規格,控制單元130將發送功率控制訊號至運算放大器150,令運算放大器150配合USB 3.0以下的供電標準調整放大功率,使運算放大器150以較高的放大功率驅動揚聲器160。If the control unit 130 determines that the system-side connection interface 210 is a USB 3.0 specification, the control unit 130 sends a power control signal to the operational amplifier 150, so that the operational amplifier 150 adjusts the amplification power corresponding to the USB 3.0 power supply standard, and adjusts the amplification power. The amplification power drives the speaker 160; otherwise, if the control unit 130 determines that the system-side connection interface 210 is a USB 3.0 or lower specification, the control unit 130 transmits a power control signal to the operational amplifier 150, so that the operational amplifier 150 is adjusted with the power supply standard below USB 3.0. The power is amplified such that the operational amplifier 150 drives the speaker 160 at a higher amplification power.

如此一來,當本實施例的電腦周邊裝置50應用於僅具有USB 3.0以下規格的系統端連接介面210的電腦系統20時,電腦周邊裝置30不僅可以主動判斷系統端連接介面210的USB規格,並並可依據系統端連接介面210的USB規格對應調整運算放大器150的放大功率,讓電腦周邊裝置50的揚聲器160所發揮的效能,可以達到如同電腦周邊裝置50電性插設於USB 3.0連接介面時的相同效能,也就是在揚聲器160的運作過程中,可避免揚聲器160因電壓不足而產生破音、雜音或爆音等情形發生,使電腦周邊裝置50無論是應用在僅具有USB 3.0規格或USB 2.0規格連接介面的電腦系統20時,都能達到相同的效能表現。In this way, when the computer peripheral device 50 of the embodiment is applied to the computer system 20 having only the system-side connection interface 210 of the USB 3.0 specification, the computer peripheral device 30 can not only actively determine the USB specification of the system-side connection interface 210. And the amplification power of the operational amplifier 150 can be adjusted according to the USB specification of the system-side connection interface 210, so that the performance of the speaker 160 of the computer peripheral device 50 can be electrically connected to the USB 3.0 connection interface like the computer peripheral device 50. The same performance, that is, during the operation of the speaker 160, the speaker 160 can be prevented from being broken, murmur or popping due to insufficient voltage, so that the computer peripheral device 50 is only applied to the USB 3.0 specification or USB. The 2.0 performance of the computer system 20 with the interface can achieve the same performance.

值得注意的是,上述實施例僅係以一般電路中常見之運算放大器以及揚聲器作為舉例說明,然熟悉此項技術領域之人士,可 依據實際使用需求而令本發明所述之運算放大器及揚聲器有不同的類型或連接組合,或者是選用其他類型的電子元件來產生不同的應用功效。It should be noted that the above embodiments are merely exemplified by an operational amplifier and a speaker commonly used in a general circuit, but those skilled in the art can The operational amplifier and the speaker of the present invention have different types or connection combinations according to actual use requirements, or other types of electronic components are selected to generate different application effects.

The difference between the two is that the computer peripheral device 70 disclosed in the fourth embodiment of the present invention further includes an audio processor 170. Connected to the operational amplifier 150 and the device-side interface 100, wherein the audio processor 170 receives an audio signal from the computer system 20 from the device-side interface 100 (step 801 of FIG. 7), and transmits the audio signal to the operational amplifier 150. This audio signal is then transmitted to the speaker 160 via the operational amplifier 150 (step 803 of FIG. 7).

如同前述,USB連接介面除了可用以供應電源外,最主要的功能是用於傳輸資料,因此本發明的電腦周邊裝置不僅可以主動判斷電腦系統所具有的系統端連接介面的USB規格外,還可以依據不同的USB規格對應調整其本身的電氣特性與功能,同時利用運算放大器及揚聲器等相關的電路配置方式或電子元件的搭配組合來產生不同的應用功效,另外還可以進一步作為訊號處理的依據,例如本發明的電腦周邊裝置更可以自電腦系統接收及傳送資料,並且依據系統端連接介面的USB規格進行不同資料處理方式,例如對於音源訊號的傳輸及處理,因此本發明的電腦周邊裝置可以是但並不侷限於一個播放音效的多媒體處理裝置。As mentioned above, in addition to the USB connection interface, the most important function is to transmit data. Therefore, the computer peripheral device of the present invention can not only actively determine the USB specification of the system-side connection interface of the computer system, but also According to different USB specifications, the electrical characteristics and functions of the USB are adjusted accordingly. At the same time, different circuit configurations such as an operational amplifier and a speaker or a combination of electronic components are used to generate different application functions, and further can be used as a basis for signal processing. For example, the computer peripheral device of the present invention can receive and transmit data from the computer system, and perform different data processing methods according to the USB specification of the system-side connection interface, for example, for transmission and processing of the sound source signal, so the computer peripheral device of the present invention can be However, it is not limited to a multimedia processing device that plays sound effects.
