Abstract:
A handheld apparatus is provided. The handheld apparatus includes a first touch pad, a second touch pad, an impedance unit, and a microprocessor. When an input tool touches the first touch pad and the second touch pad simultaneously, a touch voltage signal is generated on a common contact of the second touch pad and the impedance unit, wherein the resistance of the impedance unit is greater than that of the input tool. The microprocessor executes a specific function according to the touch voltage signal.

Abstract:
An AC adapter including an AC-side plug module and a DC-side connector module coupled to each other is provided. A first voltage-reducing element and a relay are electrically coupled to an AC power supply. An AC-to-DC converter is electrically coupled to the relay. The DC-side connector module has a mechanical switch element electrically coupled to the relay and the first voltage-reducing element. When the DC-side connector module is connected to a device socket, the mechanical switch element is turned on and the relay is enabled, so that the electrical power of the AC power supply is transmitted to the AC-to-DC converter through the enabled relay. When the DC-side connector module is disconnected from the device socket, the mechanical switch element is turned off and the relay is disabled, so that the electrical power of the AC power supply is not transmitted to the AC-to-DC converter.

Abstract:
A portable electronic device and an image communication method thereof are provided. The portable electronic device includes a display, a processing module and a memory. The processing module provides frame data of a corresponding frame for the display to show, enables the portable electronic device to emulate a virtual storage device under a communication link, and produces image data compliant with a file format according to the frame data of the frame. The memory stores the image data, which can be read through the communication link. The processing module provides a frame data update for the display to show and updates the image data according to the frame data update.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method of screening pigs to identify those which have a genetic predisposition to have a thinner or thicker backfat thickness by assaying the pattern of the five single nucleotide polymorphisms in the HSP70.2 gene that is associated with backfat thickness.
Abstract:
The invention provides a transgenic pig having incorporated into its genome a HSP70 gene or fragment thereof, whereby the transgenic pig overexpresses HSP70. The transgenic pig of the invention can be used in the production of HSP in large quantities, as a xenograft source for transplation and as an animal model close to human for illustrating the protective roles of HSP. Furthermore, the transgenic pig of the invention has a better meat quality and exhibits an increased growth rate and a reduced backfat thickness.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a socket (10) including a base (12), an array of contacts (22) in columns and rows, a plurality of positioning blocks (121) between the rows of the contacts of the base. Each of the contacts includes two deflectable contact pieces (223) at a distal region thereof to capture one ball (200) of an IC device (20) in a manner to prevent movement of that ball in a first horizontal direction. Some of the positioning blocks are arranged for preventing movement of balls of the IC device in a second horizontal direction substantially perpendicular to the first horizontal direction. Thus, the IC device may be accurately positioned on the test socket.
