Abstract:
A method for controlling a first electronic device communicating with a second electronic device is provided. The method includes connecting to the second electronic device, receiving a request to use data stored in the second electronic device from a first application, determining whether to permit to use the data, and, if permitted to use the data, controlling the first application to use the data.
Abstract:
An analog-to-digital converter includes a digital-to-analog converting circuit, a comparator, a comparator offset detector, and a signal processing circuit. The digital-to-analog converting circuit generates a reference voltage signal that changes in response to a comparator offset compensation signal, samples and holds an analog input signal, and performs a digital-to-analog conversion on digital output data to generate a hold voltage signal. The comparator compares the hold voltage signal with the reference voltage signal in response to a clock signal to generate a comparison output voltage signal. The comparator offset detector generates the comparator offset compensation signal based on the comparison output voltage signal. The signal processing circuit performs successive approximation based on the comparison output voltage signal to generate the digital output data.
Abstract:
A fingerprint sensor, comprising: a pixel array including a plurality of unit pixels arranged in rows and columns, each of the plurality of unit pixels including: a sensing electrode configured to form a detection capacitor; and a signal generation circuit configured to generate an analog signal based on a capacitance of the detection capacitor; and a controller configured to control an operation of the pixel array, wherein the controller is configured to electrically connect sensing electrodes of at least two unit pixels adjacent to each other and activate only one of the signal generation circuits included in the at least two unit pixels to generate the analog signal.
Abstract:
A first electronic device is provided. The first electronic device includes a transceiver, and a processor configured to encrypt a part of information related to a second communication based on information related to a first communication performed between the first electronic device and a second electronic device and control the transceiver to transmit information related to the second communication to the second electronic device through the transceiver.
