具体实施方式Detailed ways

请参考图1，图1为本发明实施例的一电子系统10的功能框图。电子系统10具扩展功能，其包含有一第一电子装置100及一第二电子装置102。第一电子装置100以是移动电话、PDA等便携式电子产品，包含有一第一传输接口104、一功能模块106及一控制模块108。功能模块106用来执行一第一功能，而控制模块108则可控制第一传输接口104及功能模块106的操作。第二电子装置102可以是一记忆卡，或具有记忆功能的底座、固定件等，其包含有一第二传输接口110及一储存模块112。第二传输接口110与第一传输接口104匹配，用来耦接第一传输接口104，使得第一电子装置100与第二电子装置102可交换信号。储存模块112耦接于第二传输接口110，储存有对应于一第二功能的操作程序。Please refer to FIG. 1 , which is a functional block diagram of an electronic system 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The electronic system 10 has extended functions, and includes a first electronic device 100 and a second electronic device 102 . The first electronic device 100 is a portable electronic product such as a mobile phone, a PDA, etc., and includes a first transmission interface 104 , a function module 106 and a control module 108 . The function module 106 is used to execute a first function, and the control module 108 can control the operation of the first transmission interface 104 and the function module 106 . The second electronic device 102 can be a memory card, or a base with a memory function, a fixing piece, etc., which includes a second transmission interface 110 and a storage module 112 . The second transmission interface 110 matches the first transmission interface 104 and is used to couple the first transmission interface 104 so that the first electronic device 100 and the second electronic device 102 can exchange signals. The storage module 112 is coupled to the second transmission interface 110 and stores an operation program corresponding to a second function.

进一步说明电子系统10的操作方式。当第一传输接口104与第二传输接口110未耦接时，功能模块106用来执行第一功能。相反地，当第一传输接口104与第二传输接口110耦接在一起时，控制模块108根据储存模块112所储存的操作程序，控制功能模块106执行第二功能。简单来说，当第一传输接口104与第二传输接口110耦接在一起时，功能模块106不会执行原始功能(即第一功能)而是执行扩充功能(即第二功能)。在此情形下，第一电子装置100的功能得以扩充，以拓展其使用范围。如此一来，以移动电话为例，当使用者购买新手机时，旧的手机可通过上述机制扩充其功能，达到环保及有效利用资源的目的。The operation of the electronic system 10 is further described. When the first transmission interface 104 is not coupled to the second transmission interface 110 , the function module 106 is used to execute the first function. On the contrary, when the first transmission interface 104 is coupled with the second transmission interface 110 , the control module 108 controls the function module 106 to execute the second function according to the operation program stored in the storage module 112 . In short, when the first transmission interface 104 and the second transmission interface 110 are coupled together, the function module 106 does not perform the original function (ie, the first function) but an extended function (ie, the second function). In this case, the functions of the first electronic device 100 are expanded to expand its application range. In this way, taking a mobile phone as an example, when a user buys a new mobile phone, the functions of the old mobile phone can be expanded through the above mechanism, so as to achieve the purpose of environmental protection and efficient use of resources.

需注意的是，图1所示的电子系统10用以说明本发明的概念，本领域技术人员当可据以做不同的修饰，而不限于此。举例来说，在电子系统10中，第一传输接口104及第二传输接口110不限于特定种类接口，只要能互相搭配即可。以有线通信方式为例，第一传输接口104及第二传输接口110可符合USB、PCMCIA、IEEE 1394、SPI等规格；而以无线通信方式为例，第一传输接口104及第二传输接口110则可符合Bluetooth、WLAN等规格。It should be noted that the electronic system 10 shown in FIG. 1 is used to illustrate the concept of the present invention, and those skilled in the art may make various modifications accordingly, and are not limited thereto. For example, in the electronic system 10, the first transmission interface 104 and the second transmission interface 110 are not limited to specific types of interfaces, as long as they can be matched with each other. Taking the wired communication method as an example, the first transmission interface 104 and the second transmission interface 110 can meet specifications such as USB, PCMCIA, IEEE 1394, and SPI; and taking the wireless communication method as an example, the first transmission interface 104 and the second transmission interface 110 It can comply with Bluetooth, WLAN and other specifications.

另外，根据不同的传输接口，第二电子装置102的供电方式亦需对应改变。若第一传输接口104及第二传输接口110之间通过有线通信方式进行信号传送，则第一电子装置100与第二电子装置102所需的电力可以有三种方式供应。第一种方式是第一电子装置100的电源供应模块(未绘于图1中)除了供电给第一传输接口104、功能模块106及控制模块108外，可进一步在第二传输接口110耦接于第一传输接口104时，通过第一传输接口104及第二传输接口110之间的信号连接线，供电至第二电子装置102(即第二传输接口110与储存模块112)。第二种方式是第一电子装置100的电源供应模块除了供电给第一传输接口104、功能模块106及控制模块108外，可利用电磁感应方式，供电至第二电子装置102(即第二传输接口110与储存模块112)。第三种方式是第一电子装置100与第二电子装置102分别具有一电源供应模块，以分别供应各自所需的电力。相比较之下，若第一传输接口104及第二传输接口110通过无线通信方式进行信号传送，则第一电子装置100与第二电子装置102所需的电力可以利用上述有线通信方式进行信号传送时的第二种以及第三种电力供应方式来供应。In addition, according to different transmission interfaces, the power supply mode of the second electronic device 102 also needs to be changed correspondingly. If the signal is transmitted between the first transmission interface 104 and the second transmission interface 110 through wired communication, the power required by the first electronic device 100 and the second electronic device 102 can be supplied in three ways. The first way is that the power supply module (not shown in FIG. 1 ) of the first electronic device 100 can be further coupled to the second transmission interface 110 in addition to supplying power to the first transmission interface 104, the function module 106 and the control module 108. At the first transmission interface 104 , power is supplied to the second electronic device 102 (that is, the second transmission interface 110 and the storage module 112 ) through the signal connection line between the first transmission interface 104 and the second transmission interface 110 . The second method is that the power supply module of the first electronic device 100 can supply power to the second electronic device 102 (that is, the second transmission interface 104, the function module 106 and the control module 108 by means of electromagnetic induction) in addition to supplying power to the second electronic device 100. interface 110 and storage module 112). The third way is that the first electronic device 100 and the second electronic device 102 respectively have a power supply module, so as to supply the required power respectively. In contrast, if the first transmission interface 104 and the second transmission interface 110 perform signal transmission through wireless communication, the power required by the first electronic device 100 and the second electronic device 102 can be transmitted through the above-mentioned wired communication method. When the second and third power supply methods to supply.

另一方面，在前述说明中，第一功能表示功能模块106可执行的原始功能，而第二功能则是指第二电子装置102与第一电子装置100连接后，由功能模块106达成的扩充功能。因此，当本领域技术人员在设计第二功能时，应盱衡功能模块106的组成组件，设计适当的扩充功能。On the other hand, in the foregoing description, the first function refers to the original function that the function module 106 can execute, and the second function refers to the expansion achieved by the function module 106 after the second electronic device 102 is connected to the first electronic device 100 Function. Therefore, when designing the second function, those skilled in the art should balance the components of the functional module 106 and design appropriate extended functions.

举例来说，若功能模块106的组成组件如图2所示，包含有一麦克风200、一喇叭202及一音频控制器204，用来执行音频处理功能，则只要适当设计储存模块112所储存的操作程序，电子系统10可达成警报功能。也就是说，当第一传输接口104及第二传输接口110耦接在一起时，控制模块108可根据储存模块112所储存的操作程序，控制音频控制器204在麦克风200所接收的声音信号的音量大于一预设值时，驱动喇叭202发出一警示声。在此情形下，将电子系统10装设于适当位置后，可达到警报功能。For example, if the components of the functional module 106 are as shown in FIG. 2 , including a microphone 200, a speaker 202 and an audio controller 204 for performing audio processing functions, as long as the operations stored in the storage module 112 are properly designed program, the electronic system 10 can achieve the alarm function. That is to say, when the first transmission interface 104 and the second transmission interface 110 are coupled together, the control module 108 can control the audio controller 204 to control the audio signal received by the microphone 200 according to the operation program stored in the storage module 112. When the volume is greater than a preset value, the speaker 202 is driven to emit a warning sound. In this case, after the electronic system 10 is installed in a proper place, the alarm function can be achieved.

另外，若功能模块106的组成组件如图3所示，包含有一影像撷取单元300及一视频处理器302，用来由视频处理器302处理影像撷取单元300所撷取的影像信号，以执行影像处理功能，则只要适当设计储存模块112所储存的操作程序，电子系统10可达成自动录像功能。也就是说，当第一传输接口104及第二传输接口110耦接在一起时，控制模块108可根据储存模块112所储存的操作程序，在视频处理器302的处理结果显示影像撷取单元300所撷取的影像信号的变异程度大于一预设值时，驱动影像撷取单元300记录所撷取的影像信号。换句话说，当影像撷取单元300当前所撷取的影像信号与先前所撷取的影像信号差异程度大于一预设值时，控制模块108可驱动影像撷取单300元记录所撷取的影像信号。如此一来，将电子系统10装设于适当位置后，可达到自动录像功能，进而达到保全、居家防护等效果。In addition, if the components of the functional module 106 are as shown in FIG. 3 , including an image capture unit 300 and a video processor 302, the video processor 302 processes the image signal captured by the image capture unit 300 to To perform the image processing function, the electronic system 10 can realize the automatic video recording function as long as the operation program stored in the storage module 112 is properly designed. That is to say, when the first transmission interface 104 and the second transmission interface 110 are coupled together, the control module 108 can display the image capture unit 300 on the processing result of the video processor 302 according to the operation program stored in the storage module 112 When the variation degree of the captured image signal is greater than a preset value, the image capture unit 300 is driven to record the captured image signal. In other words, when the difference between the image signal currently captured by the image capture unit 300 and the previously captured image signal is greater than a preset value, the control module 108 can drive the image capture unit 300 to record the captured video signal. In this way, after the electronic system 10 is installed in a proper position, an automatic video recording function can be achieved, and further effects such as security and home protection can be achieved.

再者，若功能模块106的组成组件如图4所示，包含有一时钟产生器400及一计时控制单元402，用来执行时钟产生功能，则只要适当设计储存模块112所储存的操作程序，电子系统10可达成计时功能。也就是说，当第一传输接口104及第二传输接口110耦接在一起时，控制模块108可根据储存模块112所储存的操作程序，控制计时控制单元402根据时钟产生器400所产生的时钟信号开始计时。如此一来，电子系统10可达到计时功能。进一步地，若功能模块106包含一显示模块，则控制模块108可控制显示模块显示计时控制单元402的计时结果。Furthermore, if the components of the functional module 106 are as shown in FIG. 4 , including a clock generator 400 and a timing control unit 402 for performing the clock generation function, as long as the operating program stored in the storage module 112 is properly designed, the electronic The system 10 can achieve a timing function. That is to say, when the first transmission interface 104 and the second transmission interface 110 are coupled together, the control module 108 can control the timing control unit 402 according to the clock generated by the clock generator 400 according to the operation program stored in the storage module 112 The signal starts timing. In this way, the electronic system 10 can achieve the timing function. Further, if the function module 106 includes a display module, the control module 108 can control the display module to display the timing result of the timing control unit 402 .

图2至图4所示的实施例用以说明功能模块106可能的实施方式，但不以此为限，主要目的在于强调本发明的概念不在于如何实现功能模块106，而是利用功能模块106原有的组件，藉由第二电子装置102的操作程序，使其发挥原有功能以外的扩充功能。因此，凡是仿此概念的变化皆应属本发明的范畴，而不限于前述之例。The embodiments shown in FIGS. 2 to 4 are used to illustrate possible implementations of the functional module 106, but are not limited thereto. The main purpose is to emphasize that the concept of the present invention is not how to realize the functional module 106, but to use the functional module 106 The original components, through the operating program of the second electronic device 102 , enable them to perform extended functions other than the original functions. Therefore, all changes imitating this concept should belong to the scope of the present invention, and are not limited to the aforementioned examples.

除此之外，图1仅显示出第一电子装置100的基本架构，其详细组成组件可能依不同应用而有所不同。例如，请参阅图5，一般而言，控制模块108可简化为由一传输接口控制器500、一基本输入输出系统模块502及一处理器504所组成。传输接口控制器500用来控制第一传输接口104与第二传输接口110的信号连结操作。基本输入输出系统模块502耦接于传输接口控制器500，用来储存对应于第一功能的特定程序。而处理器504则为第一电子装置100的运算核心，用来执行程序。详细来说，当第二传输接口110耦接于第一传输接口104时，处理器504执行储存模块112所储存的操作程序，以控制功能模块106执行对应的第二功能；而当第二传输接口110未耦接于第一传输接口104时，处理器504执行基本输入输出系统模块502所储存的程序，以控制功能模块106执行原始的第一功能。Besides, FIG. 1 only shows the basic structure of the first electronic device 100 , and its detailed components may vary according to different applications. For example, referring to FIG. 5 , in general, the control module 108 can be simplified to be composed of a transmission interface controller 500 , a BIOS module 502 and a processor 504 . The transmission interface controller 500 is used for controlling the signal connection operation between the first transmission interface 104 and the second transmission interface 110 . The BIOS module 502 is coupled to the transmission interface controller 500 and used for storing a specific program corresponding to the first function. The processor 504 is the computing core of the first electronic device 100 for executing programs. In detail, when the second transmission interface 110 is coupled to the first transmission interface 104, the processor 504 executes the operation program stored in the storage module 112 to control the function module 106 to perform the corresponding second function; When the interface 110 is not coupled to the first transmission interface 104 , the processor 504 executes the program stored in the BIOS module 502 to control the function module 106 to execute the original first function.

当然，图5仅用来说明控制模块108可能的架构之一，然而，其非本发明重点，本领域技术人员当可根据所需，适当地实现控制模块108，而不限于此。同样地，第二电子装置102亦有许多不同的实现方式，以图6为例，储存模块112由一储存单元600及一储存控制器602所组成。储存单元600可以是常见的非挥发性存储器，用来储存对应于第二功能的应用程序，而储存控制器602则用来在第二传输接口110耦接于第一传输接口104时，输出储存单元600所储存的操作程序至第一电子装置100，进而达成第二功能。Of course, FIG. 5 is only used to illustrate one of the possible architectures of the control module 108, however, it is not the focus of the present invention, and those skilled in the art can properly implement the control module 108 according to requirements, and are not limited thereto. Similarly, there are many different implementations of the second electronic device 102 . Taking FIG. 6 as an example, the storage module 112 is composed of a storage unit 600 and a storage controller 602 . The storage unit 600 can be a common non-volatile memory, and is used to store the application program corresponding to the second function, and the storage controller 602 is used to output the storage when the second transmission interface 110 is coupled to the first transmission interface 104. The operating program stored in the unit 600 is sent to the first electronic device 100 to achieve the second function.

简言之，本发明利用第一电子装置100原有的组件，藉由第二电子装置102的操作程序，使其发挥原有功能以外的扩充功能。因此，以移动电话及记忆卡分别实现第一电子装置100及第二电子装置102为例，当使用者使用新的移动电话后，可通过前述机制，将储存有特定功能的操作程序的记忆卡插入旧的移动电话中，使得旧的移动电话可达到原有功能以外的新功能，达到环保及有效利用资源的目的。此外，在设计新功能时，除了应考虑第一电子装置100的组成组件外，同时应考虑相关组件是否可正常操作，例如，若第一电子装置100原有的影像撷取功能已故障，则电子系统10必然无法达到自动录像功能。换句话说，若旧移动电话的通信功能已故障但其他功能皆正常，则可通过本发明，使其达到警报、自动录像、计时等功能，同样可达到环保及有效利用资源的目的。In short, the present invention utilizes the original components of the first electronic device 100, and uses the operating program of the second electronic device 102 to enable it to perform extended functions other than the original functions. Therefore, taking the mobile phone and the memory card respectively realizing the first electronic device 100 and the second electronic device 102 as an example, after the user uses a new mobile phone, the memory card that stores the operating program of the specific function can be stored in the memory card through the aforementioned mechanism. The old mobile phone can be inserted into the old mobile phone, so that the old mobile phone can achieve new functions other than the original functions, and achieve the purpose of environmental protection and efficient use of resources. In addition, when designing new functions, in addition to the components of the first electronic device 100, whether the relevant components can operate normally should also be considered. For example, if the original image capture function of the first electronic device 100 fails, then The electronic system 10 certainly cannot achieve the automatic video recording function. In other words, if the communication function of the old mobile phone is broken but other functions are normal, the present invention can be used to achieve functions such as alarm, automatic video recording, and timing, which can also achieve the goals of environmental protection and efficient use of resources.

进一步地，可将电子系统10的操作方式归纳为一操作流程70，如图7所示。操作流程70包含以下步骤：Further, the operation manner of the electronic system 10 can be summarized into an operation process 70 , as shown in FIG. 7 . Operational flow 70 comprises the following steps:

步骤700：开始。Step 700: start.

步骤702：控制模块108判断第一传输接口104与第二传输接口110是否耦接在一起。若是，则执行步骤704；若否，则执行步骤708。Step 702: The control module 108 determines whether the first transmission interface 104 and the second transmission interface 110 are coupled together. If yes, go to step 704; if not, go to step 708.

步骤704：控制模块108判断储存模块112是否储存有对应于一扩充功能的操作程序。若是，则执行步骤706；若否，则执行步骤708。Step 704: The control module 108 determines whether the storage module 112 stores an operation program corresponding to an extended function. If yes, go to step 706; if not, go to step 708.

步骤706：控制模块108根据储存模块112所储存的操作程序，控制功能模块106执行该扩充功能。Step 706: The control module 108 controls the function module 106 to execute the extended function according to the operation program stored in the storage module 112 .

步骤708：控制模块108控制功能模块106执行原始功能。Step 708: the control module 108 controls the function module 106 to execute the original function.
