    Abstract: A sampling circuit module, a memory control circuit unit, and a data sampling method are provided. The sampling circuit module includes a delay lock loop (DLL) and a sampling circuit. The DLL includes a clock control circuit, a clock delay circuit and a voltage control circuit. The clock control circuit performs a delay lock for a reference clock signal, so as to output a selecting signal. The clock delay circuit delays the reference clock signal according to the selecting signal, so as to output a delay clock signal. The voltage control circuit adjusts a driving voltage outputted to the clock control circuit and the clock delay circuit according to the selecting signal. The sampling circuit samples a data signal according to the delay clock signal. Accordingly, a delay ability of the DLL may be improved by adjusting the driving voltage.

    Abstract: A signal transmission circuit of an electronic device is provided. The electronic device is coupled to a signal reception circuit of a host via the signal transmission circuit. The signal transmission circuit includes a driving circuit module and a signal detection module. The driving circuit module provides at least one initialized signal and a detection signal. The initialized signal is output prior to the detection signal. The signal detection module is coupled to the signal reception circuit via a signal detection terminal. The initialized signal reduces a signal reference level of a reception terminal of the signal reception circuit. The signal detection module determines the type of the transmission interface of the signal reception circuit according to whether the detection signal of the signal detection terminal satisfies a predetermined threshold value. Furthermore, a method for detecting the signal transmission interface is provided.
