20110059627 | CONNECTOR - A connector is provided which includes a housing having a plurality of pinholes which are connectable to a signal cable and through which a plurality of electrical signals are transmitted or received, and a plurality of connection pins extending from the housing where a first end of each connection pin is electrically connected to at least one of the plurality of pinholes, and a second end of each connection pin is mountable on a printed circuit board (PCB), wherein the total number of the plurality of connection pins is less than the total number of the plurality of pinholes. | 03-10-2011 |
20110080527 | DISPLAY APPARATUS, TELEVISION AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING POWER OUTPUT OF THE DISPLAY APPARATUS - A display apparatus, a television, and a method for controlling power output of the display apparatus are provided. The display apparatus includes a display unit; a video signal processor; a power supply which supplies power to the display unit and the video signal processor; a connector receptacle to which a connector of an external device is connected and which includes terminals provided for data communication and power output from the power supply to at least the external device; a switching unit which switches voltage output from the power supply to the connector receptacle; and a switching control circuit which senses whether the plurality of terminals in the connector receptacle are in electrical contact with each other, and controls the switching unit so that the voltage output from the power supply is selectively allowed or cut off with respect to the connector receptacle according to results of the sensing. | 04-07-2011 |
20120124417 | DISPLAY APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR UPDATING MICOM CODE THEREOF - A display apparatus and a method for updating a micom code thereof are provided. According to the display apparatus, if an error occurs while a CPU is updating a micom code, a micom may drive the CPU using a system code. Accordingly, even if an error occurs in the process of updating the micom code, the display apparatus may be restored automatically without a jig apparatus. | 05-17-2012 |
20130162907 | DISPLAY APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - Disclosed are a display apparatus including a display unit which displays an image thereon; a first image processor which processes an image signal based on a predetermined image processing operation, and displays an image based on the processed image signal; a first central processor which controls the display unit and the first image processor; and a first controller which grants a control right to the first central processor or to an upgrading apparatus, which upgrades the display apparatus, to control the display apparatus when the upgrading apparatus is connected to the display apparatus. | 06-27-2013 |
20130169763 | DISPLAY APPARATUS, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF, AND INPUT APPARATUS USED IN THE SAME - A display apparatus and a method of controlling the same are provided. The display apparatus includes a plurality of reception units configured to receive a plurality of different contents, a signal processing unit configured to process each of the plurality of contents, an output unit configured to output contents processed in the signal processing unit, a remote controller signal reception unit configured to receive a selection signal from a remote controller, and, if the selection signal is received, a control unit configured to perform different control operations according to a current operation state of the display apparatus. | 07-04-2013 |
20130316664 | DISPLAY APPARATUS - A display apparatus including a display module further including a control board for controlling an operation of the display module to display an image. An outer casing unit accommodates the display module, and a wireless communication unit performs wireless communication with an external communication device. The wireless communication unit includes at least one antenna for transmitting and receiving a radio signal to and from the external communication device, and a wireless communication board converts the radio signal received from the antenna into an electrical signal and transmits the electrical signal to the control board or transmits the electrical signal provided from the control board to the antenna, wherein the antenna and the wireless communication board are arranged to be spatially separated from each other. | 11-28-2013 |
20140147124 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - An electronic device and a control method thereof includes an infrared module which receives an infrared control signal having a predetermined section-specific waveform from an infrared transmitter; a switching unit which turns on/off the infrared module; and a controller which controls the switching unit to alternately turn on and off the infrared module in a predetermined cycle for recognizing the predetermined section-specific waveform of the infrared control signal. Thus, electric power consumed by an infrared module in a standby mode may be reduced while receiving a signal of an infrared transmitter. | 05-29-2014 |
