An interface connection method applied to a connection device. The connection device is configured to connect a host end having a first connection interface and a device end having a second connection interface. The interface connection method includes determining a voltage level of a detection pin; performing a first initialization when the detection pin is at a low level; providing an electrical power for detecting whether the electrical power is consumed or not when the detection pin is at a high level; sending a link signal when the electrical power is consumed; and performing a second initialization when the device end is detected to be in a ready state.

Interface connection device, system and method thereof

A data management circuit with network functions and a network-based data management method are provided. The network-based data management method is employed to manage a storage device coupled to a computer that includes a processor. The method includes steps of: receiving a network packet through a network; sending the network packet to the processor or accessing the storage device, according to a network header of the network packet; and requesting the processor to access the storage device according to a remaining capacity of the storage device and/or a content of the network packet.

Network interface card

A data transmission circuit applied to a universal serial bus (USB) system includes a memory, a direct memory access (DMA) engine and a USB controller. The memory is arranged for receiving and storing external data. The DMA engine is coupled to the memory, and arranged for controlling data retrieved from the memory. The USB controller is coupled to the DMA engine, and arranged for receiving data from the DMA engine and for transmitting the received data to a host. When the memory the stored data volume reaches a first threshold, the DMA engine starts continuously fetching data from the memory and transmitting it to the USB controller, until the data volume fetched by the DMA engine reaches a second threshold, or there is no data left in the memory. The second threshold is greater than the first threshold.
