New Description: [New Technology Field] This is a PCI-Express multi-mode expansion card and communication device with the expansion card, especially a PCI-Express plug that can be inserted into a motherboard. In the slot, the PCLB Express slot provides a multimode expansion card that expands and connects a PCI-Express interface peripheral device to a USB interface peripheral device and a communication device having the expansion card. [Prior Art] In the past, the Peripheral Component Interface (PCI) in the personal computer is used to provide a variety of transmission interface specifications for different functional devices, such as VGA display card (VideQ tophies ', VGA), sound effects. Cards, network cards, data cards, video capture cards, TV cards, SCSI cards, and 1394 expansion cards. Among them, since the ρα peripheral device needs to share the total bandwidth of the incumbent PCI, the more the number of PCI peripheral devices connected to #, the more the devices will be installed, so that the transmission speed of each device is limited. The more, the speed of today's personal computer computing processing and the large increase in the peripheral devices to be transmitted, the faster _ wide to carry its transmission. Therefore, the bandwidth of the PCI month b is not enough to be used, and it becomes a bottleneck in the internal data transmission of the computer. To this end, Intel has begun to lead the development of a new generation of PCI-Express transmission interface specifications, which can provide faster bandwidth for the peripherals, the floor can transfer data more efficiently. For example, the operation of the 3D picture in the game, in addition to the need to have a fast central processing unit, the M304853 needs to have a fast bandwidth to transmit its operation results to the display card; others are as billions of Ethernet. (GigaByte Ethernet), ultra-wideband (UWB) wireless network, high definition content-related hardware, and RAID controller, etc., all require high Bandwidth and constant connection efficiency, only PCI-Express transmission interface specifications can meet the needs. At present, in general personal computers, in order to cope with the cost of motherboard production and the internal space of the personal computer, most of the motherboards only have one or two PCI_ExpreSS slots, so the user can connect and use PCI- The number of related peripheral devices in the Express interface is also limited, and it is a regret for the US.

And the other wireless transceiver 44 is a wireless local area network (WLAN) wireless transceiver 44 supporting the USB interface specification, which further includes: - an antenna 44 - a wireless network front end unit 442, a wireless network control The unit 443, a signal conversion module 444, and a USB connection interface 445. • The antenna 441 is used to transmit and receive wireless signals. The wireless network front end unit 442 is electrically coupled to the antenna 441 for signal noise reduction processing. The wireless network control unit 443 is connected to the wireless network front end unit 442, and can change the data signal to be transmitted into the WLAN wireless 5fl number or demodulate the received wireless signal into a *signal signal. Its function. The signal conversion module 444 is connected to the wireless network control unit 443 for data signal conversion between the USB communication protocol and the full communication protocol. The USB connection interface 槔445 is connected to the signal conversion module 4, which is in accordance with the interface of the USB2.0 interface specification and can be plugged in the second expansion of the Ρα·Εχρ multimode expansion card 3.埠33 for transmission of data nicknames that comply with the USB or USB2 〇 communication protocol. With the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the created pci-Express multimode expansion card 3 will be capable of simultaneously connecting the ultra wideband (UWR) wireless transceiver 43 and the wireless local area network (WLAN) wireless transceiver 44, and The UWB wireless transceiver 43 communicates with the host computer board (not shown) of the connected computer host by the pa-Express communication protocol. 13 N M304853 and signal transmission, and wireless local area network The (WLAN) wireless transceiver 44 uses the USB protocol to transmit data signals, which not only enables the wireless moon to support the wireless transceivers 43 and 44 of the two communication modes from the host, but also needs to use a single computer. The host's pC^Express slot completely overcomes the missing of the conventional technology. Of course, in another embodiment, we can easily think about it, and the aforementioned ultra-wideband (UWB) wireless transceiver 43 is modified to support the USB 2.0 interface specification and is connected to the second expansion port 33, and The wireless local area network (WLAN) wireless transceiver 44 is modified to support the PCI-Express interface specification and is connected to the second expansion port 32. Alternatively, only one wireless transceiver can be connected to one of the PCI-Express multimode expansion cards 3 of the present invention, and the other expansion unit is connected to other peripheral devices instead of the wireless transceiver. That is to say, the embodiments described above are not intended to limit the scope of application of the present invention, and the scope of protection of the present invention should be based on the technical spirit defined by the content of the patent application scope of the present invention and the scope of its equal changes. By. That is to say, the equal changes and modifications made by the applicants in accordance with the scope of this creation application will remain without losing the spirit and scope of this creation, and therefore should be regarded as further implementation.
