As shown in fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a set-top box 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The set-top box 100 includes an original main board 101, an expansion board 102, and a signal transmission line 103 connecting the original main board 101 and the expansion board 102.
The Set-Top Box 100 is also called a digital video converter Box Set Top Box, abbreviated as STB) or Set-Top Box, and is a device for connecting a television Set and an external signal source. It can convert the compressed digital signal into television content and display it on the television. In the embodiment of the present invention, the original motherboard 101 is a motherboard PCBA, and the extension board 102 is an extension PCBA. PCBA refers to the whole process of loading PCB blank boards by SMT or by DIP plug-in components, and is called PCBA for short. The mainboard PCBA can be used for providing audio and video services, and the extension PCBA can be used for providing derivative personalized services.
The signal transmission line 103 has an OTG (On-The-Go) function, and is mainly used for connection between various devices or mobile devices to exchange data, particularly for pads, mobile phones, and consumer devices, for example: the Pad and the printer can be connected through the signal transmission line 103, and the printer can acquire a file to be printed in the Pad through the OTG function of the signal transmission line 103, where the Pad is equivalent to an external storage of the printer.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the original main board 101 may receive a software upgrading request initiated from the outside, analyze the software upgrading request to obtain a software upgrading firmware of the expansion board 102 in the software upgrading request, and mount the original main board 101 on the expansion board 102 as an external storage based on the signal transmission line 103.

As shown in fig. 2, fig. 2 is a flowchart of another method for upgrading a set-top box supporting a splice plate according to an embodiment of the present invention, which specifically includes the following steps:
201. and the original main board in the set-top box detects the software upgrading request and acquires the software upgrading firmware corresponding to the expansion board in the set-top box in the software upgrading request.
The original main board is a main board PCBA, and the expansion board is an expansion PCBA. PCBA refers to the whole process of loading PCB blank boards by SMT or by DIP plug-in components, and is called PCBA for short. The mainboard PCBA can be used for providing audio and video services, and the extension PCBA can be used for providing derivative personalized services. The motherboard PCBA and the extension PCBA may be a splice connected by an external connector.
The firmware belongs to the configuration of the expansion board itself, and the software upgrading firmware is to upgrade the configuration of the expansion board itself, for example: a PC (personal computer) can only support the AVI movie format, and can also support the RMAB high definition format after firmware upgrade. Firmware is upgraded mainly to solve some bugs (bugs) and compatibility issues. Upgrading the firmware is actually rewriting Flash with a new firmware program, but is actually divided into two ways according to different chips and principles. The first way is a product using a separate USB chip, for example: the GDS30c6001 of Hyundai is relatively simple and safe to upgrade for such players, and only needs to transmit a new firmware program to Flash through a USB chip.
In the embodiment of the invention, the method for upgrading the splice plate supported by the set top box can be used for upgrading the software of the set top box. And the original main board of the set-top box can receive the software upgrading request in a wired connection mode or a wireless connection mode, the software upgrading request can be analyzed after the software upgrading request is obtained, and the software upgrading firmware extracted from the expansion board is stored in the original main board and used for calling the expansion board for upgrading. The software upgrade request may be user initiated. The Wireless connection mode may include, but is not limited to, a 3G/4G connection, a WiFi (Wireless-Fidelity) connection, a bluetooth connection, a wimax (worldwide Interoperability for Microwave access) connection, a Zigbee (low power local area network protocol) connection, a uwb (ultra wideband) connection, and other Wireless connection modes known now or developed in the future.

The original main board is in a transmission mode, namely a default host, when the original main board is started in the process of acquiring the software upgrading firmware, and after the original main board acquires and stores the software upgrading firmware of the expansion board, the default host mode can be switched to a device mode. The mode switching is mainly convenient for the original main board to be used as an external storage, for example: as an externally connected usb disk. When the expansion board is upgraded, the OTG function based on the signal transmission line directly obtains the software upgrading firmware from the original main board, and the software upgrading firmware does not need to be stored in the expansion board, so that the problem that the expansion board needs to provide a large enough storage space is caused.
The signal transmission line can be a USB signal line, and is connected with the original mainboard and the expansion board through the USB signal line, so that the expansion board can obtain the software upgrading firmware from the original mainboard. The USB signal line has an OTG function.
