Description
本案係有關一種介面卡,特別是指一種通用介面卡。This case relates to an interface card, especially a general-purpose interface card.
M.2是由PCI-SIG和SATA-IO標準組織所開發的傳輸介面協議,原本被稱為NGFF(Next Generation Form Factor),於2013年正式命名為M.2。M.2的特色在於其相容於多種介面訊號控制器,包含SATA、PCIe、通用序列匯流排(以下簡稱為USB)、音訊等,因此可以被應用在各種功能的領域當中,例如無線網路(Wi-Fi)、藍牙、近距離無線通訊(NFC)及固態硬碟(SSD)等。M.2 is a transmission interface protocol developed by the PCI-SIG and SATA-IO standard organizations. It was originally called NGFF (Next Generation Form Factor), and it was officially named M.2 in 2013. The feature of M.2 is that it is compatible with a variety of interface signal controllers, including SATA, PCIe, Universal Serial Bus (hereinafter referred to as USB), audio, etc., so it can be used in various functional fields, such as wireless networks (Wi-Fi), Bluetooth, Near Field Communication (NFC) and Solid State Drives (SSD), etc.
M.2介面卡包含了二種規格:B Type及M Type,這二種規格的介面卡除了介面接腳的數量不同之外,防呆鍵的位置也不同,因此這二種規格的介面卡無法互相通用,也就是說,B Type的介面卡無法插設於M Type的介面插槽,反之亦然。由於這二種規格的介面卡在外觀上過於相似,使得消費者時常會購買到相反的產品,為了解決這個問題,各家廠商推出了一種新規格的介面卡:B+M Type介面卡。B+M Type介面卡的特色之一在於其同時具有B Type介面卡的防呆鍵及M Type介面卡的防呆鍵,因此B+M Type介面卡不僅可以插設於B Type的介面插槽,亦可以插設於M Type的介面插槽。The M.2 interface card includes two specifications: B Type and M Type. In addition to the number of interface pins, the position of the key is also different. Therefore, the interface cards of these two specifications They cannot be used with each other, that is to say, the interface card of Type B cannot be inserted into the interface slot of Type M, and vice versa. Because the interface cards of these two specifications are too similar in appearance, consumers often buy opposite products. In order to solve this problem, various manufacturers have introduced a new interface card: B+M Type interface card. One of the features of the B+M Type interface card is that it has both the foolproof key of the B Type interface card and the foolproof key of the M Type interface card, so the B+M Type interface card can not only be inserted into the interface slot of the B Type , and can also be inserted into the interface slot of M Type.
儘管B+M Type介面卡的防呆鍵設計使其可以插設於所述二種規格的介面插槽,B+M Type介面卡依舊面臨著功能相容性的問題。由於B Type的介面插槽中的每個接腳及M Type的介面插槽中的每個接腳所對應的功能都不同,因此B+M Type介面卡的電路設計需同時考慮到這二種介面插槽中的每個接腳上所具有的功能,以避免發生相容性問題而導致介面卡損壞。Although the key design of the B+M Type interface card allows it to be inserted into the interface slots of the two specifications, the B+M Type interface card still faces the problem of functional compatibility. Since each pin in the interface slot of the B Type and each pin in the interface slot of the M Type correspond to different functions, the circuit design of the B+M Type interface card needs to take these two into consideration at the same time. Each pin in the interface slot has a function, so as to avoid compatibility problems and cause damage to the interface card.
舉例來說,M.2的介面協議定義了B Type的介面插槽中的第九個接腳(PIN9)係用以傳輸USB資料訊號,因此B Type介面卡上通常設置有USB模組以支援USB通訊的功能。然而,M Type的介面插槽中的第九個接腳(PIN9)並未被賦予任何功能,僅被定義為接地。因此,將具有USB模組的B+M Type介面卡插設於M Type的介面插槽不僅無法使用USB通訊的功能,還可能會發生相容性的問題而導致B+M Type介面卡損壞。For example, the M.2 interface protocol defines that the ninth pin (PIN9) in the B Type interface slot is used to transmit USB data signals, so the B Type interface card is usually equipped with a USB module to support The function of USB communication. However, the ninth pin (PIN9) in the interface socket of the M Type is not assigned any function, and is only defined as grounding. Therefore, inserting a B+M Type interface card with a USB module into the M Type interface slot not only fails to use the USB communication function, but also may cause compatibility problems and cause damage to the B+M Type interface card.
為了使B+M Type介面卡可以同時相容於B Type的介面插槽及M Type的介面插槽,在電路設計上勢必得犧牲掉B Type介面卡才具有的USB模組,以避免發生相容性問題而導致B+M Type介面卡損壞,因此,若消費者想要使用USB通訊的功能,目前依舊只能選擇具有USB模組的B Type介面卡。In order to make the B+M Type interface card compatible with the B Type interface slot and the M Type interface slot at the same time, the USB module that the B Type interface card only has must be sacrificed in the circuit design to avoid the occurrence of the same problem. Capacitance problems lead to damage to the B+M Type interface card. Therefore, if consumers want to use the USB communication function, they still can only choose the B Type interface card with a USB module.
有鑑於此,本案提出一種通用介面卡,符合M.2之介面協議及B+M Type之規格,包含資料傳輸介面、通用序列匯流排模組、開關電路及偵測電路。通用序列匯流排模組電性連接於資料傳輸介面,用以處理資料傳輸介面所傳送之第一訊號。開關電路設置於通用序列匯流排模組與資料傳輸介面之間,用以控制通用序列匯流排模組之運作狀態。偵測電路電性連接於資料傳輸介面之偵測接腳及開關電路,用以偵測所述偵測接腳所傳送之第二訊號,並根據所述第二訊號控制開關電路。In view of this, this project proposes a universal interface card that complies with the M.2 interface protocol and the B+M Type specification, including a data transmission interface, a universal serial bus module, a switch circuit and a detection circuit.

以下將以圖式揭露本案之一些實施例,為明確說明起見,許多實務上的細節將在以下敘述中一併說明,但這並不旨在限制本案的申請專利範圍。The following will disclose some embodiments of this case with diagrams. For the sake of clarity, many practical details will be described together in the following description, but this is not intended to limit the scope of the patent application of this case.
請同時參照圖1至圖3,圖1是根據本案之通用介面卡100之一實施例之電路方塊圖,圖2是根據本案之通用介面卡100之偵測電路140之一實施例之電路示意圖,圖3是根據本案之通用介面卡100之一實施例中,控制開關電路之流程圖。在本實施例中,通用介面卡100包含資料傳輸介面110、通用序列匯流排模組120(以下簡稱為USB模組120)、開關電路130及偵測電路140,其中通用介面卡100符合M.2之介面協議及B+M Type之規格。如圖1所示,USB模組120透過複數條線路電性連接於資料傳輸介面110,開關電路130設置於USB模組120與資料傳輸介面110之間,偵測電路140電性連接於資料傳輸介面110之一偵測接腳111及開關電路130。Please refer to Fig. 1 to Fig. 3 simultaneously, Fig. 1 is the circuit block diagram according to one embodiment of the
如圖2所示,偵測電路140包含一電晶體T11、一第一電阻R11及一第二電阻R12,其中電晶體T11具有一控制端、一輸出端及一接地端。電晶體T11之控制端電性連接於資料傳輸介面110之偵測接腳111,電晶體T11之輸出端電性連接於開關電路130,電晶體T11之接地端用以接地,第一電阻R11之兩端分別電性連接於第一電壓源141及電晶體T11之控制端,第二電阻R12之兩端分別電性連接於第二電壓源142及電晶體T11之輸出端。在一些實施例中,電晶體T11係為一N型金屬氧化物半導體場效電晶體(以下簡稱為NMOS)。在一些實施例中,所述NMOS之臨界電壓為0.9 伏特(V)。當電晶體T11之控制端處於一高電壓準位時,電晶體T11會被開啟而導通,其中所述高電壓準位需大於等於電晶體T11之臨界電壓,方能使電晶體T11被開啟而導通;當電晶體T11之控制端處於一低電壓準位時,電晶體T11會被關閉而不導通,其中所述低電壓準位需小於電晶體T11之臨界電壓,方能使電晶體T11被關閉而不導通。第一電阻R11之電阻值及第二電阻R12之電阻值可根據使用者的需求自行定義大小。在一些實施例中,第一電阻R11之電阻值係在1K 歐姆(Ω)至10K 歐姆(Ω)之範圍間,第二電阻R12之電阻值係在1K 歐姆(Ω)至10K 歐姆(Ω)之範圍間。As shown in FIG. 2 , the
在一些實施例中,電晶體T11亦可以是一P型金屬氧化物半導體場效電晶體(以下簡稱為PMOS)、一雙極性接面型電晶體(BJT)或可用以當作開關使用之任意型號的一電晶體。由於不同型號的電晶體所具有的特性皆不相同,因此當電晶體T11係為一非NMOS之電晶體時,電晶體T11之控制端、輸出端或接地端需要再加上一些電子元件,方能使偵測電路140之輸出結果正確。舉例來說,當電晶體T11係為一PMOS時,由於PMOS之導通特性與NMOS之導通特性恰好相反,因此電晶體T11之控制端或輸出端需要再加上一反向器(Inverter),方能使偵測電路140之輸出結果正確。本發明所屬技術領域中具有通常知識者皆熟知任意型號電晶體之特性,因此本發明所屬技術領域中具有通常知識者可直接瞭解如何基於所述任意型號電晶體之特性以調整偵測電路140中的電路,故不贅述。In some embodiments, the transistor T11 can also be a P-type metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (hereinafter referred to as PMOS), a bipolar junction transistor (BJT), or any other transistor that can be used as a switch. model of a transistor. Since the characteristics of different types of transistors are different, when the transistor T11 is a non-NMOS transistor, some electronic components need to be added to the control terminal, output terminal or ground terminal of the transistor T11. The output result of the
資料傳輸介面110用以與一外部電子裝置進行訊號傳輸,其中所述外部電子裝置至少設置有符合M.2之介面協議之一B Type的介面插槽或一M Type的介面插槽。在一些實施例中,資料傳輸介面110為一卡緣(Card Edge),其中所述卡緣符合M.2之介面協議。在一些實施例中,所述外部電子裝置可以是任意型號之一電腦主機板,其中所述外部電子裝置上的介面插槽為可供所述卡緣插置的一卡緣插槽(Card Edge Slot)。由於通用介面卡100符合B+M Type之規格,因此通用介面卡100可以插設於B Type的介面插槽或M Type的介面插槽,並透過資料傳輸介面110與所述外部電子裝置進行訊號傳輸。在一些實施例中,資料傳輸介面110中的每個接腳會各自電性連接於介面插槽中相對應的接腳,例如,資料傳輸介面110中的第一個接腳(PIN1)會電性連接於介面插槽中的第一個接腳(PIN1),資料傳輸介面110中的第二個接腳(PIN2)會電性連接於介面插槽中的第二個接腳(PIN2),以此類推。The
在一些實施例中,USB模組120用以處理資料傳輸介面110之傳輸接腳112所傳送所述外部電子裝置之一第一訊號,其中傳輸接腳112係為資料傳輸介面110中的第九個接腳(PIN9),所述第一訊號係為一USB訊號。在M.2的介面協議中,B Type的介面插槽中的第九個接腳(PIN9)被定義為用以傳輸USB資料(USB Data)的USB差動訊號對(USB differential signal, Ex: D+/D-)中的其中一USB訊號(D-)的USB接腳,因此,當通用介面卡100插設於B Type的介面插槽時,通用介面卡100可以透過USB模組120處理傳輸接腳112所傳送之第一訊號,以支援USB通訊的功能。在一些實施例中,USB模組120可以是一個USB單元,亦可以是由一USB擴展器(USB Hub Controller)連接多個USB單元所組成的一USB電路。In some embodiments, the USB module 120 is used to process a first signal transmitted by the external electronic device from the
在一些實施例中,開關電路130用以控制USB模組120與資料傳輸介面110之間的導通狀態,如果開關電路130被使能(Enable),開關電路130之內部電路會呈現電路閉合的導通狀態,並使得經由開關電路130與資料傳輸介面110連接的USB模組120電性連接於資料傳輸介面110。如果開關電路130被去能(Disable),則開關電路130之內部電路會呈現電路斷開的不導通狀態,使得經由開關電路130與資料傳輸介面110連接的USB模組120無法電性連接於資料傳輸介面110,進而導致USB模組120無法與資料傳輸介面110進行資料傳輸。In some embodiments, the
在一些實施例中,開關電路130係為一電源開關IC,其中開關電路130電性連接於資料傳輸介面110,並透過資料傳輸介面110接收外部電源。USB模組120電性連接於開關電路130,並經由開關電路130接收運作所需之電源。如果開關電路130被使能(Enable),則開關電路130內部會呈現閉合的導通狀態,此時USB模組120可以透過開關電路130接收到經由資料傳輸介面110傳送的電源而處於開啟狀態/運作狀態(power on/active);如果開關電路130被去能(Disable),則開關電路130內部電路呈現電路斷開的不導通狀態,此時USB模組120無法透過開關電路130接收到運作所需的電源而處於關閉狀態/閒置狀態(power off/inactive)。也就是說,當通用介面卡100之USB模組120處於開啟狀態(power on)時,通用介面卡100支援USB通訊的功能;當通用介面卡100之USB模組120處於關閉狀態(power off)時,通用介面卡100不支援USB通訊的功能。In some embodiments, the
在另一實施例中,開關電路130係為一USB訊號開關電路,並用以控制USB模組120之USB通訊功能之啟閉,其中開關電路130設置於USB模組120內。USB模組120電性連接於資料傳輸介面110之傳輸接腳112,並用以傳輸USB訊號給與通用介面卡100相連的外部電子裝置。如果開關電路130被使能(Enable),開關電路130會導通而輸出一使能訊號,使得USB模組120根據所述使能訊號而處於開啟狀態(switch on),進而使USB模組120開啟並執行所述USB通訊的功能。如果開關電路130被去能(Disable),則開關電路130不會導通而不輸出所述使能訊號,或是輸出相異於所述使能訊號的一去能訊號,使得USB模組120根據所述去能訊號或是因為未接收到所述使能訊號而處於關閉狀態(switch off),進而使USB模組120不開啟且不執行所述USB通訊的功能。也就是說,當通用介面卡100開啟所述USB通訊的功能時,通用介面卡100可以透過USB模組120與資料傳輸介面110進行資料傳輸;當通用介面卡100不開啟所述USB通訊的功能時,通用介面卡100無法透過USB模組120與資料傳輸介面110進行資料傳輸。In another embodiment, the
在一些實施例中,偵測電路140用以偵測接腳111所傳送之一第二訊號,並根據所述第二訊號控制開關電路130,其中偵測接腳111係為資料傳輸介面110之第十一個接腳(PIN11)。在M.2的介面協議中,B Type的介面插槽中的第十一個接腳(PIN11)被定義用以傳輸連續低電壓準位的一接地訊號,M Type的介面插槽中的第十一個接腳(PIN11)被定義用以傳輸不連續高電壓準位的一波動訊號。因此,當通用介面卡100插設於規格不明確的一介面插槽時,通用介面卡100可以透過偵測電路140偵測接腳111所傳送之第二訊號,以判斷所述介面插槽之規格為何。若偵測接腳111所傳送之第二訊號為連續低電壓準位的一接地訊號,代表所述介面插槽係為一B Type的介面插槽。也就是說,通用介面卡100所插設的外部電子裝置藉由M.2之介面協議及B Type之規格的規範與通用介面卡100通訊,此時偵測電路140會控制開關電路130為使能(Enable)狀態;若偵測接腳111所傳送之第二訊號為不連續高電壓準位的一波動訊號,代表所述介面插槽係為一M Type的介面插槽,此時偵測電路140會控制開關電路130為去能(Disable)狀態。In some embodiments, the
在一些實施例中,當通用介面卡100插設於B Type的介面插槽時,資料傳輸介面110之偵測接腳111所傳送之第二訊號係為一非波動訊號(例如為連續低電壓準位的一接地訊號),此時偵測電路140之第一電壓源141及第一電阻R11會與偵測接腳111形成一直流電路並產生一直流電流,並使得電晶體T11之控制端處於低電壓準位。由於電晶體T11之控制端處於低電壓準位,電晶體T11會被關閉而不導通,因此偵測電路140之第二電壓源142及第二電阻R12不會與電晶體T11之接地端導通,此時電晶體T11之輸出端會受到第二電壓源142的影響且不受電晶體T11之接地端的影響而處於高電壓準位。當電晶體T11之輸出端處於高電壓準位時,偵測電路140會將作為所述使能訊號的高電壓準位傳送至開關電路130,使得開關電路130處於導通的使能狀態。此時開關電路130會電性連接於USB模組120與資料傳輸介面110之傳輸接腳112,使得USB模組120可以透過資料傳輸介面110與通用介面卡100所插設的外部電子裝置進行USB通訊,進而使通用介面卡100支援USB通訊的功能。In some embodiments, when the
在另一實施例中,當通用介面卡100插設於B Type的介面插槽時,資料傳輸介面110之偵測接腳111所傳送之第二訊號係為一非波動訊號(例如為連續低電壓準位的一接地訊號),此時偵測電路140之第一電壓源141及第一電阻R11會與偵測接腳111形成一直流電路並產生一直流電流,並使得電晶體T11之控制端處於低電壓準位。由於電晶體T11之控制端處於低電壓準位,電晶體T11會被關閉而不導通,因此偵測電路140之第二電壓源142及第二電阻R12不會與電晶體T11之接地端導通,此時電晶體T11之輸出端會受到第二電壓源142的影響且不受電晶體T11之接地端的影響而處於高電壓準位。當電晶體T11之輸出端處於高電壓準位時,偵測電路140會將作為所述使能訊號的高電壓準位傳送至開關電路130,使得開關電路130處於導通的使能狀態。此時開關電路130會傳送USB模組120運作所需的電源給USB模組120,使得USB模組120經由開關電路130接收運作所需的電源而處於運作狀態。此時通用介面卡100可以透過USB模組120與通用介面卡100所插設的外部電子裝置進行USB通訊,進而使通用介面卡100支援USB通訊的功能。In another embodiment, when the
在一些實施例中,當通用介面卡100插設於M Type的介面插槽時,資料傳輸介面110之偵測接腳111所傳送之第二訊號係為不連續高電壓準位的一波動訊號,此時偵測電路140之第一電壓源141及第一電阻R11會與偵測接腳111形成一直流電路並產生一直流電流,並使得電晶體T11之控制端處於高電壓準位。由於電晶體T11之控制端處於高電壓準位,電晶體T11會被開啟而導通,因此偵測電路140之第二電壓源142及第二電阻R12會與電晶體T11之接地端形成一直流電路並產生一直流電流,此時電晶體T11之輸出端會受到電晶體T11之接地端的影響而處於低電壓準位。當電晶體T11之輸出端處於低電壓準位時,偵測電路140會將作為所述使能訊號的低電壓準位傳送至開關電路130,使得開關電路130處於不導通的去能狀態。此時開關電路130不會電性連接於USB模組120與資料傳輸介面110之傳輸接腳112,使得USB模組120無法透過資料傳輸介面110與通用介面卡100所插設的外部電子裝置進行USB通訊,進而使通用介面卡100不支援USB通訊的功能。In some embodiments, when the
在另一實施例中,當通用介面卡100插設於M Type的介面插槽時,資料傳輸介面110之偵測接腳111所傳送之第二訊號係為不連續高電壓準位的一波動訊號,此時偵測電路140之第一電壓源141及第一電阻R11會與偵測接腳111形成一直流電路並產生一直流電流,並使得電晶體T11之控制端處於高電壓準位。由於電晶體T11之控制端處於高電壓準位,電晶體T11會被開啟而導通,因此偵測電路140之第二電壓源142及第二電阻R12會與電晶體T11之接地端形成一直流電路並產生一直流電流,此時電晶體T11之輸出端會受到電晶體T11之接地端的影響而處於低電壓準位。當電晶體T11之輸出端處於低電壓準位時,偵測電路140會將作為所述使能訊號的低電壓準位傳送至開關電路130,使得開關電路130處於不導通的去能狀態。此時開關電路130無法傳送USB模組120運作所需的電源給USB模組120,使得USB模組120無法經由開關電路130接收運作所需的電源而處於閒置狀態。此時通用介面卡100無法透過USB模組120與通用介面卡100所插設的外部電子裝置無法進行USB通訊,進而使通用介面卡100不支援USB通訊的功能。In another embodiment, when the
如圖3所示,當通用介面卡100插設於一外部電子裝置之一介面插槽時,通用介面卡100之資料傳輸介面110會電性連接於所述外部電子裝置之介面插槽(步驟S10),此時通用介面卡100還無法判斷所述介面插槽是哪一種規格。接著,通用介面卡100之偵測電路140會偵測資料傳輸介面110之偵測接腳111所傳送之一第二訊號(步驟S20),並判斷所述第二訊號是否為一非波動訊號(步驟S30)。若是,則所述介面插槽係為B Type的介面插槽(步驟S40),通用介面卡100之偵測電路140會控制開關電路130為使能狀態(步驟S50),使得USB模組120處於開啟狀態,此時通用介面卡100支援USB通訊的功能;若不是,則所述介面插槽係為M Type的介面插槽(步驟S60),通用介面卡100之偵測電路140會控制開關電路130為去能狀態(步驟S70),使得USB模組120處於關閉狀態,此時通用介面卡100不支援USB通訊的功能。As shown in Figure 3, when the
綜上所述,根據本案之通用介面卡100之一些實施例,通用介面卡100保留了B Type介面卡才具有的USB模組120,透過偵測電路140以偵測所插設之介面插槽為哪一種規格,並透過開關電路130以控制USB模組120之開關狀態。當通用介面卡100插設於B Type的介面插槽時,USB模組120會處於開啟狀態,此時通用介面卡100支援USB通訊的功能;當通用介面卡100插設於M Type的介面插槽時,USB模組120會處於關閉狀態,此時通用介面卡100不支援USB通訊的功能。如此一來,當通用介面卡100插設於M Type的介面插槽時,即可避免發生相容性的問題而導致通用介面卡100的損壞。To sum up, according to some embodiments of the
