330. <36> The controller 330 is an MCU that includes a central processing unit
(CPU), a main memory having a ROM and a RAM, and an 1/0 port. Herein, the
ROM is used as a program memory and stores an initialization program called a boot loader. When the ACR 300 is turned on, the boot loader program is executed.
<37> <38>
<39> The boot loader program initializes the hardware of the electronic device and then waits for receiving an external message for a predetermined time. If the message is not received, the electronic device hands over its control to a main program(i.e. an actual program). As soon as the main program obtains the control, it initializes all the related parts and carries out the original function.
<40> On the other hand, if the message is received, the boot loader program stops operating and waits for receiving the external message.
<4i> According to a command of the external message programmed in advance, the boot loader program erases a main program area or writes a new program.
<42> Thus, the initialization program is stored in the ROM so as to retain data even in power-off state and the ACR 300 must set the value of a program counter to the start address of the boot loader when it turns on.
<43> FIG. 4 is a structural diagram illustrating an update system of an ACR 400 using a mobile phone 410 according to an embodiment of the present invention.
<44> Referring to FIG.4, an update system according to an embodiment of the

<47> The VM server 420 can be connected through the mobile communication network of the mobile phone 410 and provides a VM program for updating the firmware of the ACR 400 in the mobile phone 410. The mobile phone 410 can be connected to the VM server 420 by using Wireless Internet Numbers for Contents (hereinafter referred to as "WINC") that is provided by the manufacturer of the ACR 400.
<48> The update server 430 can be connected through the mobile communication network of the mobile phone 410 where the VM program is executed. By building a customer database (not illustrated), the update server 430 receives the specific system information of the ACR 400 that is extracted by the VM program and authenticates the ACR 400. Thereafter, the update server 430 checks the version of the authenticated ACR 400 and updates the latest firmware data if the ACR 400 has the old version.
<49> After the mobile phone 410 downloads the VM program for updating the ACR 400 from the VM server 420 and installs the VM program completely, the update system connects the mobile phone 410 to the ACR 400 to execute the VM program. The VM program serves as a bridge for connecting the update server 430 to the ACR 400. Also, the VM program extracts the specific system information of the ACR 400 to be transmitted to the update server 430.
<50> If the VM program is executed, the mobile phone 410 is connected to the update server 430. The update server 430 receives the specific system
information of the ACR 400 from the VM program and checks whether the ACR 400 is a registered device or not and its firmware version. If the firmware of the ACR 400 is the latest version, the update server 430 terminates the VM program. On the other hand, if the firmware of the ACR 400 is not the latest version, the update server 430 uploads the latest firmware data to the mobile phone 410. <5i> When the uploading is completed, the mobile phone 410 updates the ACR
400 with the latest firmware. <52> The ACR 400 can be stably updated because it consists of a controller unit of the program memory structure illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2. <53> FIG. 5 is a structural diagram illustrating an update system of an ACR
500 using a mobile phone 510 according to another embodiment of the present invention. <54> Referring to FIG. 5, an update system according to another embodiment of the present invention includes an ACR 500, a mobile phone 510, and a VM server 510. <55> The ACR 500 is an additional external device that is connected to the standard 24-pin 1/0 terminal of the mobile phone 510. When a call attempt occurs, the ACR 500 connects it to a special category telecommunications provider for low call charges. <56> The mobile phone 510 can receive data from the VM server 520 through a subscribed mobile communication network. Also, the mobile phone 510 have to install a VM program to update the firmware of the ACR 500 connected to the
1/0 terminal of the mobile phone. <57> The VM server 520 can be connected through the mobile communication network of the mobile phone 510 and provides a firmware update data and a VM program for updating the firmware of the ACR 500 in the mobile phone 510. <58> Also, because the VM server 520 has a customer databaseCnot illustrated), it can check whether the ACR 500 is a registered device or not.
The mobile phone 510 can be connected to the VM server 520 by using the WINC that is provided by the manufacturer of the ACR 500.
<59> When the mobile phone 510 linked to the ACR 500 is connected to the VM server 520, the ACR 500 transmits its specific system information to the VM server 520. After the VM server 520 authenticates the ACR 500 by using the customer database(not illustrated), it uploads the VM program for updating firmware to the mobile phone 510. There are two types of the authentication. One is a direct authentication by which the users directly input their ID and their password. The other is an indirect authentication by which the mobile phone 510 extracts the specific system information of the ACR 500 and transmits the extracted information to the VM server 520.
<60> After the VM program is downloaded and installed completely in the mobile phone 510, the connection with the VM server 520 is terminated and the VM program is executed.
<6i> Herein, the VM program contains the latest firmware data for updating the ACR 500.
<62> Thus, the VM program checks the firmware version of the ACR 500 and updates the firmware to the latest version if the firmware is old.
<63> The update system of FIG. 5 is characterized in a way that it provides the VM program having data for updating the firmware in a server. The ACR 500 can be stably updated because it consists of a controller unit of the program memory structure illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2.
<64> The update systems of FIGS.4 and 5 can be applied not only to the ACRs 400 and 500, but also to additional external devices that carry out various functions such as games, karaoke, and e-book.
<65> While the present invention has been described and illustrated herein with reference to the preferred embodiments thereof, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
