Embodiment
The present invention makes data storage device have several tandem transmission interfaces, it is except containing USB interface, other tandem transmission interfaces also are provided, and making this data storage device see through same connectivity port can link with the digital device of distinct interface, to carry out the data transmission.
As shown in Figure 1, it is to be structure block schematic diagram of the present invention, one data storage device 10 comprises a reservoir 12, provide the usefulness that stores data, reservoir 12 be generally fast flash memory (Flash) but, the electronic type clear programization only reads wherein a kind of of group that reservoir (EEPROM) and cover screen type reservoir (Maskmemory) formed; One microprocessor 14 is connected to reservoir 12, in order to the access of data in the control reservoir 12; Microprocessor 14 is connected with two serial bus interfaces 16,18, is respectively a usb 16 and a non-USB serial device interface 18, and communications protocol and data transmission to handle connecting interface wherein, also can have non-USB serial device interfaces 18 different more than two; Serial bus interface 16,18 is electrically connected to a usb connecting port 20, it provides the connectivity port (not shown) that is connected to a digital device, to form interface binding pass be: other has an interface switch controller 22 to be electrically connected between usb connecting port 20 and the serial bus interface 16,18, and be electrically connected between serial bus interface 16,18 and the microprocessor 14, switch with the interface attributes that detects the digital device that usb connecting port 20 was linked selection can with the serial bus interface 16/18 of its binding.
Wherein, usb connecting port 20 is not defined as USB, and connectivity port that can also a USB compatibility replaces, and in other words, usb connecting port 20 more can have additional several pins except the pin (pin) with USB, to be applicable to the connectivity port of non-USB simultaneously; Serial bus interface 16,18 also can in build in the microprocessor 14, then interface switch controller 22 only need be connected between usb connecting port 20 and this microprocessor 14 and get final product.On the other hand, interface switch controller 22 also can in build in the microprocessor 14, be one to integrate control circuit.
Consult shown in Figure 2 again, it is another preferred embodiment of the present invention, as shown in the figure, one external interface control port 24 is linked to microprocessor 14 and the interface switch controller 22 in the data storage device 10, simultaneously to differentiate and control the digital device that usb connecting port 20 is linked by interface switch controller 22 and external interface control port 24, its communication interface is to have USB interface or do not have USB interface and be other serial device interfaces, to switch suitable serial bus interface 16,18.
Then, switch the interactively of corresponding binding interface in order to illustrate this data storage device 10 to be connected with a digital device, see also shown in Figure 3, application circuit synoptic diagram for data storage device 10 of the present invention, as shown in the figure, the signal line of usb connecting port 20 includes one group of power lead Vdd, GND and one group of data/controlling signal line Data+ that is electrically connected to microprocessor 14, the Data-(not shown), to see through this group power lead Vdd, the digital device input power supply that GND is connected from usb connecting port 20, and see through data/controlling signal line Data+, Data-utilizes microprocessor 14 to carry out Data Processing; More include a power input mouth 26, come the required power supply of each element action in the input data storage device 10 with an external power supply device; In addition, being circumscribed with a power supply selection control 28, is the digital device that connected by usb connecting port 20 or by 26 inputs of power input mouth with the action power source of selecting each element in the data storage device 10.Wherein, power supply selection control 28 is to build in can be in the microprocessor 14; And the power supply device that power input mouth 26 connects is built in the data storage device 10 in also can be, to integrate interlock circuit in data storage device 10.
When the connectivity port of a usb connecting port 20 and a digital device links together and after forming the signal connection relationship, the communications protocol that interface switch controller 22 will detect this digital device has or not USB interface, if USB interface is arranged, then interface switch controller 22 will be controlled the binding interface and switch to usb 16, utilize usb 16 to carry out data transmission and access data to see through usb connecting port 20.
Do not have USB interface but have other serial device interfaces if interface switch controller 22 detects this digital device, then interface switch controller 22 will be controlled the binding interface and switch to non-USB serial device interface 18, to see through usb connecting port 20 and to utilize non-USB serial device interface 18 to carry out data transmission and access data.Wherein, as shown in Figure 4, when usb 16 switches to non-USB serial device interface 18, this group power lead Vdd, GND switch as another group document signal line D1, D2 to use synchronously, this moment, the power supply of data storage device 10 can't be again sees through the digital device input that power lead Vdd, GND be connected from usb connecting port 20, power supply selection control 28 will detect this variation and the path of also synchronous or preferential Switching power input for by 26 inputs of power input mouth.
Therefore, the present invention can make the power signal line data of the switching to/controlling signal line of usb connecting port 20 use, data/controlling signal line is become by these two signal line of Data+, Data-originally increased another group data/controlling signal line D1, D2, and become four data/controlling signal line, can improve the problem of existing some tandem series signal line deficiency, to reach the effect of increase data and control line number, wherein, if usb connecting port 20 is aforesaid USB compatibility connectivity port, then its data/controlling signal line is when increasing to more than four; Simultaneously, when digital device that data storage device 10 connected is the short device of battery stand-by time such as PDA, digital camera own, the present invention also can utilize an external power supply device or data storage device 10 inner power supply devices own that power supply is provided, and quickens the shortcoming of the electric power of consumption digital device with the existing carry-on hard disk of effective solution.
Figure 5 shows that the Another Application circuit diagram of data storage device 10 of the present invention, data storage device 10 is connected with digital device and switches the interactively of corresponding binding interface, and power supply selection control 28 control selects the interactively in the source of input power supplys to be same as the embodiment of above-mentioned Fig. 2 to Fig. 4, so repeat no more in this.
Therefore, the data storage device of many tandem transmission interfaces provided by the invention not only can link with USB interface, and is applicable to the tandem transmission interfaces of other non-USB, seeing through same connectivity port can link with the digital device of distinct interface, makes the data transmission between digital device more convenient; In addition, the present invention is a portable apparatus, and has design architecture and simply reach the low advantage of cost, also allows the user more flexiblely select tandem transmission interfaces according to the demand of system architecture simultaneously.
The above is by embodiment characteristics of the present invention to be described, its purpose is had the knack of this operator and can be understood content of the present invention and implement according to this making, and non-limiting claim of the present invention, so, all other do not break away from equivalence modification or the modification that disclosed spirit is finished, and must be included in the described claim of this case.
