Fig. 2 is the block diagram of first embodiment of aforementioned calculation machine system, in order to further specify the computer system 10 with game computer function.Computer system 10 comprises a logical operation module 116 and a game control module 104.Logical operation module 116 comprises logic controller 110, CPU (central processing unit) 112 and system storage 114.Logical operation module 116 is the part of computer system 10 core parts, is responsible for the logical operation of general computing machine.Game control module 104 comprises microprocessing unit 1042, storage element 1046, wireless transmit/receive units 106.In addition, computer system 10 also comprises condition monitoring unit 102, data switch unit 108, power supply switch unit 120 and 122 and output linkage unit 124.
Games system 1 is with a power-supply unit 100 supplied computer system 10 required operating voltage under various modes of operation; With the portable computer is example, and power-supply unit 100 can be battery or AC power.The mode of operation of computer system 10 comprises starting state and non-started state, starting state can refer to meet in the computer system of ACPI specification, any one that power supply status is work (Working) state S0 and sleep (Sleep) state S1 in the S3; Non-started state can refer to that then the system power supply state is any one among dormancy (Hibernation) state S4 and shutdown (Soft off) the state S5.
Because the power-supply unit 100 of computer system 10 is not only to provide electric power during for starting state in computer system 10, therefore, unless power-supply unit 100 separated fully with computer system 10 or remove, otherwise, still have the sustainable part operation of some system element when computer system 10 during at non-started state.For example in general computer system, (Embedded Controller EC) can continue to obtain the stand-by electric (standby power) of power-supply unit 100 and detect the power supply supply status of computer system to embedded controller.First embodiment of the invention promptly describes as described condition monitoring unit 102 with embedded controller.It should be noted, condition monitoring unit 102 among first embodiment can also be any device of detecting computer system 10 power supply supply status in the computer system 10, and those skilled in the art can replace embedded controller with other devices according to actual demand.
Power supply switch unit 120 is arranged between power-supply unit 100 and the logical operation module 116; 122 of power supply switch units are arranged between power-supply unit 100 and the game control module 104.When computer system 10 is in starting state, power-supply unit 100 flows to every system element in the computer system 10 by power supply switch unit 120 with voltage, condition monitoring unit 102, data switch unit 108 and the hard disk devices such as (figure do not show) that comprises logical operation module 116, links up by logic controller 110 and CPU (central processing unit) 112.When computer system 10 was in non-started state, 100 of power-supply units were supplied operating voltages by power supply switch unit 122 and are given game control module 104.In addition, after the voltage that game control module 104 can utilize a Voltagre regulator 118 that power-supply unit 100 is supplied is adjusted into suitable operating voltage (as step-down), for 104 operations of game control module.
As previously mentioned, because no matter condition monitoring unit 102 all can receive the power supply that power-supply unit 100 is provided in startup or non-started state, so condition monitoring unit 102 can continue the situation that computer system 10 is given in 100 power supplies of monitoring power supply feeding unit, for example the size of current exported of monitoring voltage feeding unit 100 determines whether being provided with (assert) output state switching signal 102_SS.Be with, when condition monitoring unit 102 judges that computer system 10 is in non-started state, when for example current value ratio one preset critical exported of power-supply unit 100 is low, condition monitoring unit 102 will be provided with state switching signal 102_SS, power supply switch unit 122 will the conducting (close) according to the indication of state switching signal 102_SS, so that power-supply unit 100 can be input to voltage game control module 104.Simultaneously, power supply switch unit 120 also disconnects (open) according to the setting of state switching signal 102_SS, makes the voltage of power-supply unit 100 stop to be input to logical operation module 116.
The output data 106_SO that wireless transmit/receive units 106 is exported is sent to the microprocessing unit 1042 of game control module 104 and becomes the input data of microprocessing unit 1042.The output data 106_SO of wireless transmit/receive units 106 is from the control command or the motor message of far-end control device 16 transmission.Microprocessing unit 1042 reads and carries out from the games in the storage element 1046 according to the indication of output data 106_SO, and according to the design of games, responds motor message or control command that the user is imported by far-end control device 16.For example: produce the avatar of simulation user action or carry out corresponding game content, become output data 104_SO according to the control command that is transfused to.Wireless transmit/receive units 106 in the present embodiment can be bluetooth, infrared ray or radio signal transmission unit.
Except operating voltage being input to the game control module 104, the output data 104_SO that game control module 104 produces is also according to the state switching signal 102_SS that is set up, by 108 outputs of data switch unit, by output linkage unit 124, become the input data 14_SI of display unit 14.Whereby, display unit 14 can be presented in input data 14_SI (just as above-mentioned avatar or corresponding game content) in face of the user.With the portable computer is example, output linkage unit 124 can be high-definition multimedia interface (High Definition Multimedia Interface, and can connect display unit 14 HDMI) or AV terminal (composite video) interface, by cable with compatible connecting interface.In another embodiment, the signal by 124 outputs of output linkage unit also can directly be output on the screen of computer system 10.
Fig. 3 provides the block diagram of second embodiment of computer system, and in a second embodiment, computer system 10a has also comprised a control knob 126.
When computer system 10a is in non-started state, the user might not want to start the function of recreation, therefore in a second embodiment, condition monitoring unit 102 also can determine whether being provided with state switching signal 102_SS simultaneously according to the state of control knob 126 except the situation of monitoring power supply feeding unit 100 power supplies.When computer system 10a was in non-started state, condition monitoring unit 102 can not be provided with state switching signal 102_SS at once, whether exported an enabling signal trig_S to condition monitoring unit 102 and can continue to detect control knob 126.When button 126 to be controlled produced enabling signal trig_S according to pushing of user, condition monitoring unit 102 just was provided with state switching signal 102_SS, with the switching of control power supply switch unit 120,122 and data switch unit 108.The effect of other elements and annexation see also the explanation of first embodiment.
Fig. 4 describes the inner structure of the data switch unit 108 among first embodiment and second embodiment, comprises that one has the video-audio data switch unit 1080 of change-over switch 10802.Change-over switch 10802 is switched according to the indication of state switching signal 102_SS.When computer system 10, when 10a is in non-started state, change-over switch 10802 can switch to the output terminal formation conducting state of game control module 104 according to the state switching signal 102_SS that is set up, make game control module 104 with the output data 104_SO output of handling well, by the transmission of output linkage unit 124, become the input data 14_SI of display unit 14.In practical application, on-off circuit (switch circuit) can be set at the motherboard of computer system, operate above-mentioned change-over switch 10802.The mode that on-off circuit is set can not increase too much for the manufacturing cost of computer system integral body, and whole system complexity also can be too complicated.
Refer again to Fig. 2 to Fig. 4, when computer system 10, when 10a is in starting state, the electric current that condition monitoring unit 102 detects power-supply unit 100 supplies is higher than preset critical, promptly can cancel setting (de-assert) state switching signal 102_SS.Power supply switch unit 120 switches to the state of conducting according to the cancellation setting of state switching signal 102_SS, makes logical operation module 116 receive the operating voltage that power-supply unit 100 provides.Relatively, 122 of power supply switch units switch to off-state when state switching signal 102_SS cancellation is provided with, make operating voltage stop to be input to game control module 104.
Data switch unit 108 is subjected to the control of state switching signal 102_SS similarly, when cancellation is provided with state switching signal 102_SS, the change-over switch 10802 of video-audio data switch unit 1080 switches to the output data 110_SO of logic controller 110, the output data 110_SO of logic controller 110 exports computer systems 10,10a by data switch unit 108 and output linkage unit 124, becomes the input data 14_SI of display unit 14.Game control module 104 does not obtain operating voltage at this moment, promptly can not receive output data 106_SO or transmit output data 104_SO by data switch unit 108 by wireless transmit/receive units 106.
It should be noted that, in first embodiment and second embodiment, game control module 104 is by the switching of data switch unit 108, original output linkage unit 124 is connected with display unit 14 among the system that uses a computer 10, the 10a, for example to use the HDMI or the AV connectivity port that just are provided with originally in the portable computer, other linkage unit need not to be set in order playing under non-started state.
Mode of operation as for state switching signal 102_SS, one of them pin position of general input and output (GPIO) that embedded controller had can be connected to change-over switch, and send a high potential signal to change-over switch by this general input and output pin position, switch with the notice change-over switch.So switching mode of state switching signal 102_SS, can detect computer system in condition monitoring unit 102 when being in starting state (for example previously described when current value is higher than preset critical), cancellation immediately being provided with state switching signal 102_SS (for example drawing high its current potential to noble potential); Similarly, detect computer system in condition monitoring unit 102 when being in non-started state (when current value is lower than a preset critical as mentioned before), the potential value of state switching signal 102_SS can be switched to electronegative potential.
More detailed description about game control module 104 inner structures please refer to Fig. 5.In one embodiment, game control module 104 is except as Fig. 2 and shown in Figure 3 comprising microprocessing unit 1042, the storage element 1046, also comprise power supply receiving interface 1040, Data Receiving interface 1044 and graphics processing unit (Graphic ProcessingUnit, GPU) 1048.Power supply receiving interface 1040 couples power-supply unit 100 to receive voltage; 1044 Data Receiving interfaces receive control command or the motor message (being output data 106_SO) that wireless transmit/receive units 106 is obtained from far-end control device 16.After microprocessing unit 1042 receives voltage from power supply receiving interface 1040, can read the games in the storage element 1046 according to the control command that Data Receiving interface 1044 receives.Microprocessing unit 1042 is again according to the design and the motor message of games, produce a drawing command, transfer to graphics processing unit 1048 and draw game picture, become output data 104_SO, show by being sent to display unit 14 as Fig. 2 and data switch unit 108 shown in Figure 3 and output linkage unit 124, after supplying the user to see the game picture of recreation, proceed corresponding game action at display unit 14.
