Description

Universal serial bus hub, method for operating the same and display
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a universal serial bus hub, a method for operating the universal serial bus hub and a display using the universal serial bus hub, and more particularly, to a universal serial bus hub with low power consumption.
Background
Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a very popular computer interface connection standard and is a technical specification of input/output interface. Generally, a computer system provides at least one standard USB port, and any peripheral device conforming to the USB standard can be connected to any computer system having the USB standard, so as to transmit data with digital signals of the USB standard, and plug and play (PNP) is also available, i.e. various peripheral devices can be inserted at any time without being rebooted or installed. Since computer systems can only provide a limited number of USB ports, not all peripheral devices can be connected to the computer system in a one-to-one manner at the same time. Therefore, USB hubs (hubs) have been developed in the market that allow a computer system to simultaneously transmit data to multiple peripheral devices through a single USB port.
A conventional USB hub generally has an upstream port (upstream port) for connecting to a host and a plurality of downstream ports (downstream ports) for connecting to one or more peripheral devices, so that the host can maintain connection and operate with the plurality of peripheral devices through the USB hub. In order to save power consumption, the current USB communication specification determines the operation mode of the USB hub according to whether the USB hub is connected to the host. When the upstream port is occupied by the host, the USB hub will supply power to all the downstream ports to operate in the normal mode; when the upstream port is not occupied by the host, the USB hub stops supplying power to the downstream port to operate in the power-saving mode.
Typically, a user connects the USB hub to the host for a long period of time, but only inserts a peripheral device into the downstream port of the USB hub when the USB hub is to be used. In this case, when the upstream port is occupied by the host, the USB hub of the prior art continuously supplies power to the downstream port even though the host does not perform data transmission with any peripheral device, thereby increasing unnecessary power consumption of the USB hub.

The USB hub 100 may be connected to a host through an upstream port UP and/or connected to a host through a downstream port DN1~DNMTo one or more peripheral devices. In the embodiment of the present invention, the USB hub 100 can be connected to any device providing at least one standard USB port through the upstream port UP. However, the type of host does not limit the scope of the present invention. In addition, the number of the downstream ports can be one.

The upstream port UP includes a first DATA pin DATA +, a second DATA pin DATA-, a voltage pin VCC and a ground pin GND. When the upstream port UP is occupied by the host, the USB hub 100 can transmit DATA to the host through the first DATA pin DATA + and the second DATA pin DATA-. The voltage pin VCC is coupled to the control unit 10, and the ground pin GND is coupled to the ground reference potential. Since the voltage pin VCC will be changed when the upstream port UP is occupied by the host, the control unit 10 can determine whether the USB hub 100 is connected to the host.
FIG. 3 shows the DN of the downstream port of the USB hub 100 according to the present invention1~DNMSchematic representation. Downstream port DN1~DNMEach including a first DATA pin (respectively composed of DATA)1+~DATAM+ represents, a second DATA pin (respectively represented by DATA)1-~DATAM-denoted, voltage pin (VCC respectively)1~VCCMIndicated by) and ground pins (each indicated by GND)1~GNDMTo indicate). When the downstream port is occupied by the peripheral device, the USB hub 100 may transmit data to or receive data from the peripheral device through the corresponding first data pin and second data pin of the associated downstream port, and transmit power to the peripheral device through the corresponding voltage pin. Each grounding pin GND1~GNDMAre coupled to the control unit 10 and are all floating so that the corresponding ground pin has a first potential when the downstream port is occupied and a second potential when the downstream port is unoccupied. Therefore, the control unit 10 can determine whether the USB hub 100 is connected to any peripheral device.
In the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, the downstream port DN1~DNMGround pin GND1~GNDMCan be coupled to a bias voltage V through a resistor RBIASTo form a floating circuit. However, the structure of the floating circuit does not limit the scope of the present invention.
The control unit 10 can control the operation mode of the USB hub 100, and fig. 4 is a flowchart illustrating the operation of the control unit 10 according to the embodiment of the present invention, which includes the following steps:
step 410: detecting the voltage level of the voltage pin VCC in the upstream port UP and the downstream port DN1~DNMMiddle grounding pin GND1~GNDMThe potential of (a); step 420 is performed.
Step 420: determining whether the upstream port UP is occupied according to the potential of the voltage pin VCC in the upstream port UP: if yes, go to step 430; if not, go to step 440.
Step 430: according to the downstream port DN1~DNMMiddle grounding pin GND1~GNDMDetermining whether at least one specific downstream port is occupied: if yes, go to step 450; if not, go to step 440.
Step 440: the USB hub is controlled to operate in the first mode, and step 410 is performed.
Step 450: the USB hub is controlled to operate in the second mode, and step 460 is performed.
Step 460: monitoring whether both the upstream port UP and a particular downstream port remain occupied? If yes, go to step 450; if not, go to step 440.
In the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the first mode is a power saving mode, in which the USB hub 100 stops supplying power to the downstream port DN1~DNM(ii) a The second mode is a normal mode, in which the USB hub 100 supplies power to the downstream port DN1~DNM. That is, the control unit controls the usb hub to operate in the first mode (power saving mode) by stopping power supply to the first downstream port; and controlling the USB hub to operate in the second mode (normal mode) by supplying power to the first downstream port. The following table shows various scenarios in which the control unit 10 controls the operation mode of the USB hub 100.

Watch 1
In steps 410-430, when it is determined that the USB hub 100 is not connected to the host, or when it is determined that the USB hub 100 is connected to the host but not connected to any peripheral device (i.e. all downstream ports are not occupied), the present invention performs step 440 to control the USB hub 100 to operate in the first mode (power saving mode); when it is determined that the USB hub 100 is connected to the host and at least one peripheral device (i.e., at least one downstream port is occupied), the present invention performs step 450 to control the USB hub 100 to operate in the second mode (normal mode). Thus, only at the host is via the USB hub100 are connected to at least one peripheral device, the USB hub 100 of the present invention will supply power to the downstream port DN1~DNMThereby reducing unnecessary power consumption of the USB concentrator.
In addition, DN is supplied to the downstream port1~DNMMeanwhile, the present invention also periodically monitors whether the upstream port UP and at least one downstream port are both occupied in step 460. Once all downstream ports are detected to be unoccupied, the USB hub 100 proceeds to step 440 to switch to the power saving mode. Therefore, the USB hub 100 of the present invention supplies power to the downstream port DN only when the host is connected to at least one peripheral device through the USB hub 1001~DNMThereby reducing unnecessary power consumption of the USB concentrator.
The following description will be given by way of specific examples of how the control unit comprehensively controls the operation mode of a universal serial bus hub (USB hub) according to the comprehensive occupation status of a plurality of downstream ports. For example, in the present invention, the plurality of downstream ports DN can be divided into1~DNMThe number of the first downstream ports is at least one, and the number of the second downstream ports is one or more. The control unit is not only used for judging whether the first downstream port is occupied or not, but also used for judging whether one or more second downstream ports are occupied or not; and controlling the USB hub to operate in the first mode when the upstream port is determined to be occupied and the first downstream port and the one or more second downstream ports are determined to be unoccupied; and when the upstream port is determined to be occupied and at least one of the one or more second downstream ports is determined to be occupied, controlling the USB hub to operate in the second mode, i.e., no matter whether the first downstream port is occupied, as long as the upstream port is occupied and at least one second downstream port is occupied, the control unit controls the USB hub to operate in the second mode (normal mode) so that the USB hub performs the data transfer function.
The present invention has been described in relation to the above embodiments, which are only exemplary of the implementation of the present invention. It should be noted that the disclosed embodiments do not limit the scope of the invention. Rather, it is intended that all such modifications and variations be included within the spirit and scope of this invention.
