A case for an electronic device includes an injection preform having a recess on at least one portion of a surface thereof, a deposition layer deposited on a surface of the injection preform, and a paint layer formed on the deposition layer. The deposition layer may directly contact a surface of the injection preform. A method of manufacturing a case includes injection-molding an injection preform having a recess on a surface thereof, forming a deposition layer directly contacting a surface of the injection preform, and forming a paint layer on the deposition layer.

Case, method of manufacturing case, and electronic device

A voltage generator includes a first trim unit and a second trim unit. The first trim unit generates a first voltage variable depending on temperature variation and a second voltage invariable irrespective of the temperature variation based on a power supply voltage, and performs a first trim operation by changing a level of the second voltage. The level of the second voltage at a first temperature becomes substantially the same as a level of the first voltage at the first temperature based on the first trim operation. The second trim unit generates an output voltage based on the power supply voltage, the first and second voltages, a reference voltage and a feedback voltage, and performs a second trim operation by adjusting variation of the output voltage depending on the temperature variation based on a result of the first trim operation.

Voltage generator and semiconductor memory device

A docking station for an electronic device is provided. The docking station includes a housing having an inner space, a rotator disposed in a rotatable manner inside the housing, and partially exposed outwardly to the housing when completely open, a movable member coupled to the rotator, and exposed together with a device mounting groove for mounting an electronic device thereon when the rotator is completely open, and a stopper coupled to the movable member to selectively control the movable member so that a position of the movable member is fixed when the rotator is completely open and so that the movable member moves in a closing direction together when the rotator is closed.

Docking station

Disclosed are a portable communication device and a cradle apparatus for the same. The portable communication device includes a first housing; a second housing with a first display device, the second housing being cradled at a known angle after being swung from the first housing; and a third housing with a second display device, the third housing being stacked with the second housing before the second housing is swung from the first housing, and being extended from a lower edge of the second housing and tilted at a same known angle as the second housing when the second and third housings are extended from the first housing.

Portable communication device and cradle apparatus thereof

A cradle for a portable terminal includes a cradle body, cradle grooves extending from a surface of the cradle body in parallel with each other, and a support plate able to emerge by a pivoting action from the surface of the cradle body that is between the cradle grooves. When the portable terminal is cradled, the support plate emerges from the surface of the cradle body to support the surface of the portable terminal, and one of the cradle grooves is selectively used to support a portion of an edge of the portable terminal so as to provide a selected facing direction for the portable terminal.

Cradle for portable terminal

A cradle includes a cradle body having a push button and a pair of holding arms facing each other in a compressed state by first elastic members in the cradle body, receding from each other while the push button is being pressed, and advancing toward each other while applying pressure to the holding arms to hold a portable body mounted on the cradle body. A driver is disposed in the cradle body and in interaction with the pair of holding arms.

Cradle for supporting a portable device

Handheld wireless communications devices include a data input device, which is configured to receive first input data provided by a user, a main processor and a security processor. The security processor includes an input interface and input processing block configured to extract second data from a first portion of the first input data using, for example, a data mapping operation. The security processor also includes an encryption circuit, which is configured generate secure data from the extracted second data by encrypting the extracted second data using an encryption key, and a data/control interface, which is configured to transfer the secure data to the main processor.

Mobile device, method of processing an input in a mobile device and electronic payment method using a mobile device

A sliding type portable terminal includes a first housing and a second housing slidably engaged face-to-face with the first housing. The portable terminal includes a guide member mounted in a first closed area provided on one surface of the first housing and always covered up by the second housing, and a slide member mounted on one surface of the second housing and sliding over the first housing by being guided by the guide member. A wiring passageway for wiring a flexible printed circuit board is formed in the slide member. The flexible printed circuit board is wired through a slit for coupling the guide member to the slide member without providing a slide cover for opening/closing the wiring passageway or forming a separate wiring passageway, thereby preventing the flexible printed circuit board from being exposed to the outside and ensuring elegant appearance of the terminal.

Sliding type portable terminal

Disclosed is a sliding-type portable apparatus and a sliding device of the sliding-type portable apparatus. The portable apparatus includes a main body, a display unit, and a sliding device, in which the sliding device enables the automatic sliding of the keypad unit according to the sliding of the display unit. Further, the portable apparatus includes a driving unit to semi-automatically open/close the display unit and the keypad unit.

Portable apparatus and sliding device thereof

A keyboard unit adapted to provide a cradling function for a portable terminal includes: a keyboard and a keyboard case for receiving the keyboard to protect the keyboard from an external environment. The keyboard case has a cradling unit adapted for cradling a portable terminal after the keyboard is extracted from the keyboard case.

Keyboard unit with cradling function

A portable terminal with a pair of housings is provided, in which a fixed member has a through hole and is fixed to one surface of a first housing, the through hole penetrating both surfaces of the fixed member, a rotation member is fixed to one surface of a second housing, facing one surface of the fixed member, a driving member is rotatably engaged with the through hole on the other surface of the fixed member and fixed to the rotation member, and an elastic member has one end supported by the fixed member and the other end supported by the driving member, for providing a driving force to rotate the driving member.
