Description

Electronic installation with switch
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of electronic installation, particularly relate to a kind of electronic installation with three-dimensional switch.
Background technology
(universal serial bus, communication mode USB) adopts the starlike bus-bar framework of hierarchy type (tiered star topology architecture) of master-slave mode (client/server) to universal serial bus.Generally speaking, each starlike framework only uses a usb host device.Starlike framework is a control center with the usb host device, and sets up several stratum's nodes by hub device (USB hub device), with hub device or the USB device of stratum's end (USB device) that is linked to next stratum.The USB device is a computer peripheral device, for example keyboard (keyboard), mouse (mouse), storage device (storage device).The starlike framework of the hierarchy type that universal serial bus is taked only allows main frame and functional device to carry out point-to-point communication pattern (peer-to-peer communication) access data, by the leading communication of host apparatus, all terminal USB devices utilize timesharing mechanism (time-sharing) and host apparatus to carry out exchanges data.
Yet, in the time of need intercoming mutually as if two terminal USB devices, must carry out exchanges data with host apparatus separately earlier, assist the transmission data to another corresponding USB device via host apparatus again.Shown in Figure 1A-1B, for usb host device in the prior art and USB OTG (on-the-go) device is optionally controlled the USB schematic representation of apparatus.This USB OTG device has two kinds of functions, comprises the function of USB device and the function that can be used as a host apparatus.But two kinds of functions can not simultaneously and be stored in same USBOTG device.In Figure 1A, the USB OTG device 100 of digital album (digital photo frame) 106 is switched to usb host device 102, but makes usb host device 102 access USB OTG devices 100, and this moment, the USBOTG device 100 was as the USB device.In Figure 1B, USB OTG device 100 is switched the USB device 104 to the outside, but makes this external USB device 104 of USB OTG device 100 accesses, and this moment, USB OTG device 100 was as a usb host device.
In view of this, developing a kind of new-type electronic installation is necessary with the problem that solves between above-mentioned USB device and the usb host device.
