[0162] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure. Furthermore, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this disclosure can be combined with each other without conflict. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of this disclosure without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
[0163] Unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used in this disclosure shall have the ordinary meaning understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure pertains. The terms “first,” “second,” and similar terms used in this disclosure do not indicate any order, quantity, or importance, but are merely used to distinguish different components. Terms such as “comprising” or “including” mean that an element or object preceding the word encompasses the elements or objects listed following the word and their equivalents, without excluding other elements or objects. Terms such as “connected” or “linked” are not limited to physical or mechanical connections, but can include electrical connections, whether direct or indirect.
[0164] It should be noted that the dimensions and shapes of the figures in the accompanying drawings do not reflect actual proportions and are intended only to illustrate the content of this disclosure. Furthermore, the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout.
[0165] In some embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the electronic device includes a display device 100. The display device 100 has a screen capable of displaying images. Exemplarily, the display device 100 may include, but is not limited to, any product or component with a screen, such as a tablet computer, television, laptop computer, or all-in-one computer. Other essential components of the display device are those that should be understood by those skilled in the art and are not described in detail here, nor should they be construed as limiting the present disclosure.
[0166] In the embodiments disclosed herein, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the electronic device also includes a camera module 200. The camera module 200 is external, detachable, and separate from the display device 100. When the user needs to use the camera module 200 for image acquisition, the camera module 200 can be removed from the storage compartment or other container and installed on the display device 100. When the user does not need to use the camera for image acquisition, the camera module 200 can be detached from the display device 100 and stored in the storage compartment or other container. This eliminates the need for the camera module 200 to be embedded and fixed at the top of the display, freeing up space at the top of the display and making it possible to achieve an extremely narrow bezel design. In particular, it meets the current demand for high screen-to-body ratios in laptop displays, enabling the laptop screen to have extremely narrow bezels on three sides and achieve an ultra-thin screen effect.
[0167] Furthermore, since users can decide whether to install the camera module 200 onto the display device 100 according to their needs, the camera module 200 can be removed when not in use, completely disconnecting the camera module 200 from the display device 100, thus achieving relatively reliable privacy and security protection.
[0168] The camera module in this embodiment can be an external magnetically attached camera. For example, in this embodiment, such as... Figure 3 and Figure 4a As shown, the camera module 200 may be provided with a first connector 210 for electrical connection with a display device. Exemplarily, the first connector 210 may have multiple contact points 12, with magnetic components 13 respectively provided on both sides of each contact point 12. The contact points 12 may include, but are not limited to, spring-loaded probes, and the magnetic components 13 are used to attach to the display device. In application, the camera module 200 can be electrically connected to the display device in either the forward or reverse direction via the contact points 12 and the magnetic components 13 for front-facing or rear-facing imaging. That is, when the camera aperture faces the user (i.e., the camera aperture faces the front of the display screen), it can be used as a front-facing camera; when the camera aperture faces away from the user (i.e., the camera aperture faces the rear of the display screen), it can be used as a rear-facing camera.
[0169] The camera module in this embodiment uses a spring-type probe as the electrical conduction line between the camera module and the display device, and uses magnetic components on both sides of the spring-type probe to realize a stable communication circuit between the external camera module and the display device, thereby achieving a narrow bezel of the display device. At the same time, the camera module can be electrically connected to the display device in either the forward or reverse direction to be used as a front-facing camera or a rear-facing camera, making the application more flexible.
[0170] like Figure 4a and Figure 4b As shown, in the embodiments of this disclosure, the camera module 200 includes a housing 14 and a camera module (not labeled) disposed inside the housing 14. Connecting contact points 12 are disposed on the top and / or bottom of the housing 14. Magnetic suction components 13 are embedded on both sides of the connecting contact points. The light-transmitting surface of the housing 14 facing the camera of the camera module is sealed by a transparent acrylic panel or hard tempered glass. For example, in... Figure 4b In the middle, a glass cover plate 16 is provided on the light-transmitting surface of the housing 14 facing the camera, and the glass cover plate 16 is sealed to the housing 14 by double-sided adhesive tape 17.
[0171] In some examples, the multiple contact points 12 are 4 to 8 sets of linearly arranged spring-loaded probes (i.e., POGO PINs, with springs inside the POGO PINs). One end of the spring-loaded probe is soldered to the PCB circuit board 23 of the camera module, while the other end, located outside the housing 14, is electrically connected to the display device. In one possible embodiment, contact points 12 are provided at both the top and bottom of the housing 14, and the top and bottom contact points 12 are symmetrically arranged. Magnetic components are provided on both sides of the top and bottom contact points 12. This allows the camera and display device to communicate from two directions, ensuring proper imaging. Simultaneously, it also enables the camera to be rotated (i.e., used as a front and rear camera) for imaging.
[0172] This disclosure does not limit the number of probes in each group of contact points 12. For example, it can be 7 linearly arranged spring probes, 4 linearly arranged spring probes, or 5 linearly arranged spring probes. This makes communication more stable and allows the camera and display device to have communication circuitry connected from two directions, enabling the connection between the camera and the display device and ensuring normal camera imaging.
[0173] See Figure 4b In an optional embodiment, the housing 14 includes a metal cavity with openings at the top and / or bottom, and corresponding plastic parts (lower plastic shell 15 and upper plastic shell (not labeled)) that close the top and / or bottom. The contact point 12 and the magnetic assembly 13 are disposed on the plastic parts. The plastic parts (lower plastic shell 15 and upper plastic shell (not labeled)) can be fixed to the metal cavity with screws, and the plastic parts and the metal cavity are sealed together with glue.
[0174] In this embodiment, the camera module is magnetically attracted to the corresponding magnetic component on the display device via a magnetic component, which compresses the spring inside the spring probe, so that the spring probe and the corresponding contact point on the display device can make one-to-one contact after attraction. The POGO PIN can accurately and stably connect the camera and the communication circuit of the whole machine.
[0175] In one possible embodiment, the housing 14 is made of aluminum alloy. The magnetic component 13 is a magnet or a magnet stone.
[0176] Refer again Figure 4b The camera module may include a camera 21, a lens holder 22, a filter 25, a sensor 24, and an LED. Specifically, a shield 19 may be provided between the top of the camera module and the housing 14. The shield 19 may be supported by an upper rubber layer and a lower rubber layer, and the camera 21 may be supported by the lens holder 22.
[0177] like Figure 4c and Figure 4d As shown, in some embodiments of this disclosure, a first connector is provided on the display device. The first connector has a magnetic component corresponding to the magnetic component of the camera module 200, and a contact corresponding to the connection contact of the camera module 200.
[0178] like Figure 4d As shown, the display device is also provided with a receiving slot 27 for accommodating an external magnetic camera, so as to store the camera module when it is not in use.
[0179] Since the electronic device provided in this disclosure includes a display device and the aforementioned camera module, it also possesses all the advantages of the camera module. Furthermore, because the display device uses an external camera module, different specifications of camera modules can be flexibly configured for the display device. For example, a standard notebook camera module is 1M 720P or 2M 1080P, and according to this disclosure, 5M 2K and 8M 4K camera assemblies can also be customized as optional accessories with different configurations.
[0180] In addition, since the camera module uses an external magnetic attachment, it is more convenient to replace or repair, without having to disassemble the display device.
[0181] In the embodiments disclosed herein, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, a second connector 110 is embedded in the display device 100, serving as the signal input between the camera module 200 and the display device 100. When the user needs to use the camera module 200 for image acquisition, the first connector 210 of the camera module 200 can be installed onto the second connector 110 on the display device 100, thus mounting the camera module 200 onto the display device 100. When the user does not need to use the camera for image acquisition, the first connector 210 can be disconnected from the second connector 110, allowing the camera module 200 to be detached from the display device 100.
[0182] In the embodiments disclosed herein, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, a receiving slot is provided at the top bezel of the display screen, in which the second connector 110 can be disposed. Exemplarily, the second connector 110 includes one or more connection pins. Exemplarily, the second connector 110 includes N connection pins, which are named from first connection pin to Nth connection pin in a direction from left to right of the display screen. Optionally, N can be set to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or more, which can be determined according to the actual application requirements and is not limited here.
[0183] Currently, camera modules are typically fixed to the top of the display screen and embedded within it, limiting their ability to capture images only from the front of the screen and making their use inflexible and inconvenient. To address this, the electronic device provided in this disclosure separates and detaches the camera module from the display device. When image acquisition is required, the camera module is installed on the display device. When image acquisition is not needed, the camera module is detached from the display device. Furthermore, the camera module can be installed facing forward (facing the front of the screen) or backward (facing the rear of the screen), as needed. To determine whether the camera module is facing forward or backward, the electronic device provided in this disclosure also includes a detection and control circuit. This circuit determines the orientation of the camera module, improving the flexibility and convenience of its use.
[0184] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the detection and control circuit can be disposed on the circuit board of the display device.
[0185] In the embodiments disclosed herein, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the detection control circuit 300 is connected to the second connector 110. The detection control circuit 300 is configured to determine the direction in which the camera faces the display device 100 (the front refers to one side of the display surface) in response to the first to the Mth contact points being installed on the first to the Nth connection pins, specifically on the a to a+M-1th connection pins. That is, the first contact point is installed on the a-th connection pin, the second contact point on the a+1th connection pin, the third contact point on the a+2th connection pin, ..., the M-1th contact point on the a+M-2th connection pin, and the Mth contact point on the a+M-1th connection pin, thereby mounting the camera module 200 face-up onto the display device 100. This indicates that the camera faces the display surface, i.e., it is connected frontally, meaning the camera is used for frontal imaging, thus enabling the camera to capture the image in front of the display screen.
[0186] Furthermore, the detection control circuit 300 is also configured to determine the camera's orientation toward the rear of the display device 100 (rear refers to the non-display side of the screen) in response to the Mth contact point to the first contact point being mounted on the bth to b+M-1th connection pins among the first to Nth connection pins. That is, the Mth contact point is mounted on the bth connection pin, the M-1th contact point on the b+1th connection pin, the M-2th contact point on the b+2th connection pin, ..., the second contact point on the b+M-2th connection pin, and the first contact point on the b+M-1th connection pin, thereby reversing the camera module 200 onto the display device 100. This indicates that the camera is facing the non-display side of the screen, i.e., reverse access, and that the camera is used for reverse imaging, thus enabling the camera to capture images of the rear of the screen.
[0187] In this embodiment of the disclosure, 'a' is an integer and 1 ≤ a ≤ N. That is, the specific value of 'a' can be selected from 1 to N, and is not limited here.
[0188] In this embodiment, b is an integer and 1 ≤ b ≤ N. That is, the specific value of b can be selected from 1 to N, and is not limited here.
[0189] In this embodiment, the installation order of the first to Mth contact points and the first to Nth connection pins determines whether the camera is used for forward or reverse imaging. This allows the camera module to meet more personalized application scenarios and provides more reliable and secure privacy protection.
[0190] When the display device provided in this embodiment is a laptop or all-in-one computer, the camera module, which can be detached from the laptop or all-in-one computer, allows the camera module to meet more personalized application scenarios and provides more reliable and secure privacy protection. Furthermore, by determining the installation order of the first to Mth contact points and the first to Nth connection pins, the forward or reverse camera orientation can be determined. This achieves front and rear imaging effects by simply connecting the camera module in either direction without moving the entire laptop or all-in-one computer, thus solving the problem that current laptops or all-in-one computers' built-in cameras only image from one side.
[0191] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the installation order of the first to Mth connecting contacts and the first to Nth connecting pins can be determined by detecting signals. Exemplarily, the detection control circuit is also configured to acquire camera detection signals. Optionally, the camera detection signals can be analog voltage signals or digital voltage signals, and are not limited thereto.
[0192] In some examples, when the detection control circuit 300 determines that the camera detection signal is a positive access detection signal, it can determine that the first contact point to the Mth contact point are installed on the ath connection pin to the a+M-1th connection pin, and determine that the camera module 200 is positively installed on the display device 100.
[0193] In some other examples, when the detection control circuit 300 determines that the camera detection signal is a reverse access detection signal, it determines that the Mth connection point to the first connection point are installed to the bth connection pin to the b+M-1th connection pin, and determines that the camera module 200 is reverse-mounted to the display device 100.
[0194] For example, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, the camera module 200 also includes a first camera magnet CT1 and a second camera magnet CT2. The N-pole of the first camera magnet CT1 faces the second connector 110, and the S-pole of the second camera magnet CT2 faces the second connector 110. Optionally, the first camera magnet CT1 and the second camera magnet CT2 can be located at opposite ends of the first connector 210. For example, the first camera magnet CT1 is located on the side of the first contact point Q1 away from the Nth contact point, and the second camera magnet CT2 is located on the side of the Nth contact point away from the first contact point Q1. This allows the first camera magnet CT1 and the second camera magnet CT2 to be located at the left and right ends of the camera module 200, respectively. For example, the first camera magnet CT1 is located at the left end of the camera module 200, with the N-pole (north pole) of the first camera magnet CT1 facing down (towards the outside of the first connector 210) and the S-pole (south pole) facing up. A second camera magnet CT2 is provided on the right end of the camera module 200, with the S pole (south pole) of the second camera magnet CT2 facing down (referring to the outside facing the first connector 210) and the N pole (north pole) facing up.
[0195] For example, the magnetic field strengths of the first camera magnet CT1 and the second camera magnet CT2 may be the same or different, and this is not limited here.
[0196] For example, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the display device 100 further includes a first magnetic field sensor 120. Optionally, the second connector 110 can be soldered onto a flexible printed circuit (FPC), and the first magnetic field sensor 120 is disposed on the FPC. When the camera module 200 is mounted face-up onto the display device 100, the area where the first magnetic field sensor 120 is located is opposite to the area where the first camera magnet CT1 is located. When the camera module 200 is mounted face-down onto the display device 100, the area where the first magnetic field sensor 120 is located is opposite to the area where the second camera magnet CT2 is located.
[0197] In practical implementation, when the camera module 200 is mounted face-up onto the display device 100, the first connector 210 is mounted onto the second connector 110. The N pole of the first camera magnet CT1 approaches the first magnetic field sensor 120, triggering the first magnetic field sensor 120. In response to the N pole of the first camera magnet CT1, the first magnetic field sensor 120 emits a camera detection signal corresponding to the face-up detection signal. Furthermore, the first magnetic field sensor 120 is connected to the detection control circuit 300, thereby enabling the acquisition of the camera detection signal corresponding to the face-up detection signal from the first magnetic field sensor 120.
[0198] In practical implementation, when the camera module 200 is installed in reverse onto the display device 100, the first connector 210 is connected to the second connector 110. The S pole of the second camera magnet CT2 approaches the first magnetic field sensor 120, triggering the first magnetic field sensor 120. In response to the S pole of the second camera magnet CT2, the first magnetic field sensor 120 emits a camera detection signal corresponding to the reverse access detection signal. Furthermore, the first magnetic field sensor 120 is connected to the detection control circuit 300, thereby enabling the acquisition of the camera detection signal corresponding to the reverse access detection signal from the first magnetic field sensor 120.
[0199] In practical implementation, when the camera module 200 is not installed on the display device 100, the first connector 210 and the second connector 110 are far apart, and the first magnetic field sensor 120 will not be triggered. Instead, it will output a camera detection signal corresponding to the lack of a detection signal. Furthermore, the first magnetic field sensor 120 is connected to the detection control circuit 300, thereby enabling the acquisition of the camera detection signal corresponding to the lack of a detection signal from the first magnetic field sensor 120. When it is determined that the camera detection signal is a lack of a detection signal, it is determined that the first connector 210 is not installed on the second connector 110, thus confirming that the camera module 200 is not connected to the display device 100.
[0200] This disclosure does not limit the specific implementation of the first magnetic field sensor. Exemplarily, the first magnetic field sensor may be a sensor based on the Hall effect. For example, the first magnetic field sensor includes, but is not limited to, a Hall sensor.
[0201] Optionally, the Hall sensor can be a dual-output Hall sensor, in which case the first and second output terminals of the dual-output Hall sensor are respectively connected to the detection control circuit 300. Specifically, when the camera module 200 is mounted forward onto the display device 100, the first connector 210 is mounted onto the second connector 110, and the N-pole of the first camera magnet CT1 is close to the dual-output Hall sensor. In response to the N-pole of the first camera magnet CT1, the first output terminal of the dual-output Hall sensor triggers the output of a first-level signal (e.g., a low-level signal, represented by "0"), and the second output terminal triggers the output of a second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, represented by "1"). The first-level signal (e.g., a low-level signal, represented by "0") and the second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, represented by "1") are then sent to the detection control circuit 300 as corresponding camera detection signals (e.g., "01") for forward-accessed detection signals.
[0202] Furthermore, when the camera module 200 is reverse-mounted to the display device 100, the first connector 210 is mounted to the second connector 110. In response to the S pole of the second camera magnet CT2, the first output terminal of the dual-output Hall sensor triggers the output of a second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, represented by "1"), and the second output terminal triggers the output of a first-level signal (e.g., a low-level signal, represented by "0"). The second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, represented by "1") and the first-level signal (e.g., a low-level signal, represented by "0") are sent to the detection control circuit 300 as the corresponding reverse-access detection signal camera detection signal (e.g., "10").
[0203] Furthermore, when the camera module 200 is not installed on the display device 100, the first connector 210 is not installed on the second connector 110, the dual-output Hall sensor will not be triggered, and the first output terminal of the dual-output Hall sensor outputs a second level signal (e.g., a high level signal, represented by "1"), and the second output terminal outputs a second level signal (e.g., a high level signal, represented by "1"), so that the second level signal (e.g., a high level signal, represented by "1") and the second level signal (e.g., a high level signal, represented by "1") are used as the corresponding camera detection signal (e.g., "11") for the camera that has not been connected to the detection signal, and sent to the detection control circuit 300. Alternatively, the first output terminal of the dual-output Hall sensor outputs a first-level signal (e.g., a low-level signal, represented by "0"), and the second output terminal outputs a first-level signal (e.g., a low-level signal, represented by "0") to send the first-level signal (e.g., a low-level signal, represented by "0") and the second-level signal (e.g., a low-level signal, represented by "0") as the corresponding detection signal (e.g., "00") of the camera that has not been connected to the detection signal, and send them to the detection control circuit 300.
[0204] Based on this, the detection control circuit 300 can pre-store forward access detection signals, reverse access detection signals, and no access detection signals. For example, the pre-stored forward access detection signal can be a digital voltage signal of "01", the pre-stored reverse access detection signal can be a digital voltage signal of "10", and the pre-stored no access detection signal can be a digital voltage signal of "11". This allows the received camera detection signal to be compared with the pre-stored forward access detection signal, reverse access detection signal, and no access detection signal, respectively. If the camera detection signal is the same as the forward access detection signal, it can be determined that the camera detection signal is a forward access detection signal. If the camera detection signal is the same as the reverse access detection signal, it can be determined that the camera detection signal is a reverse access detection signal. If the camera detection signal is the same as the no access detection signal, it can be determined that the camera detection signal is a no access detection signal.
[0205] In this embodiment, the detection control circuit may include: a logic controller and a selection conduction circuit; wherein the logic controller is connected to a first magnetic field sensor, and the selection conduction circuit is connected to the logic controller and to the first to Nth connection pins respectively. Furthermore, the logic controller is configured to acquire a camera detection signal, and when it is determined that the camera detection signal is a forward access detection signal, output a first mode configuration signal and a voltage output enable signal; and when it is determined that the camera detection signal is a reverse access detection signal, output a second mode configuration signal and a voltage output enable signal. The selection conduction circuit is configured to receive the first mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, and in response to the first mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the a-th connection pin, and connect the a+M-1-th connection pin to the ground terminal GND; and receive the second mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, and in response to the second mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the b+M-1-th connection pin, and connect the b-th connection pin to the ground terminal GND. This allows the logic controller and the selective conduction circuit to work together to provide voltage to cameras that are mounted in either the forward or reverse orientation.
[0206] For example, the number of connection contacts in the first connector 210 can be the same as the number of connection pins in the second connector 110, i.e., N=M. This minimizes the number of signal lines, allowing signal transmission in both forward and reverse directions and position detection of the camera (forward or backward shooting) with as few signal lines as possible. Furthermore, when the camera module 200 is mounted forward onto the display device 100, the first connection contact is mounted to the first connection pin, the second connection contact to the second connection pin, the third connection contact to the third connection pin, ..., the (M-1)th connection contact to the (N-1)th connection pin, and the Mth connection contact to the Nth connection pin. When the camera module 200 is mounted backward onto the display device 100, the first connection contact is mounted to the Nth connection pin, the second connection contact to the (N-1)th connection pin, the third connection contact to the (N-2)th connection pin, ..., the (M-1)th connection contact to the second connection pin, and the Mth connection contact to the first connection pin.
[0207] In some embodiments of this disclosure, image data captured by the camera can be transmitted via wireless communication technology. The camera module may further include a first wireless communication component, through which the camera module can send the captured image data. Furthermore, the display device also includes a second wireless communication component. The display device interacts with the first wireless communication component via the second wireless communication component to obtain image data sent by the first wireless communication component.
[0208] In some embodiments of this disclosure, image data captured by the camera can be transmitted via signal lines (e.g., Universal Serial Bus (USB)). Exemplarily, the selection circuit can also be configured to connect the a+1th connection pin to the a+M-2th connection pin to the image data transmission terminal in response to a first mode configuration signal, and to connect the b+1th connection pin to the b+M-2th connection pin to the image data transmission terminal in response to a second mode configuration signal.
[0209] For example, taking N=M=4 as an example, such as Figure 10a and Figure 10b As shown, the first contact point Q1 can be configured to connect to the camera power supply voltage VCC, the fourth contact point Q4 can be configured to connect to the ground terminal GND, and the second contact point Q2 and the third contact point Q3 can be configured to connect to the image data transmission terminal. Optionally, the image data transmission terminal includes a first differential signal transmission terminal D+ and a second differential signal transmission terminal D-, wherein the second contact point Q2 can be configured to connect to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and the third contact point Q3 can be configured to connect to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-.
[0210] For example, taking N=M=4 as an example, such as Figure 10a and Figure 10b As shown, the detection control circuit 300 may include a logic controller 310 and a selection circuit 320. The logic controller 310 is connected to the first magnetic field sensor 120, and the selection circuit 320 is connected to the logic controller 310 and first connection pins P1 to P4, respectively. The logic controller 310 is configured to acquire camera detection signals from the first magnetic field sensor 120. Furthermore, the logic controller 310 pre-stores forward-accessed detection signals (e.g., a digital voltage signal of "01"), reverse-accessed detection signals (e.g., a digital voltage signal of "10"), and non-accessed detection signals (e.g., a digital voltage signal of "11").
[0211] For example, such as Figure 10aAs shown, when the camera is mounted face-up on the display device 100, the first contact point Q1 is mounted to the first connection pin P1, the second contact point Q2 is mounted to the second connection pin P2, the third contact point Q3 is mounted to the third connection pin P3, and the fourth contact point Q4 is mounted to the fourth connection pin P4. The camera detection signal is a digital voltage signal of "01". The logic controller 310 is configured to compare the received camera detection signal with the forward access detection signal, the reverse access detection signal, and the no access detection signal, respectively. If the camera detection signal is the same as the forward access detection signal, it can be determined that the camera detection signal is the forward access detection signal, thereby outputting the first mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal. The selection circuit 320 is configured to receive the first mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, and in response to the first mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the first connection pin P1, and connect the fourth connection pin P4 to the ground terminal GND. Furthermore, the second connection pin P2 and the third connection pin P3 are connected to the image data transmission terminal, and the image data captured by the camera is transmitted through the second connection pin P2 and the third connection pin P3.
[0212] For example, such as Figure 10b As shown, when the camera is mounted in reverse to the display device 100, the fourth contact Q4 is mounted to the first connection pin P1, the third contact Q3 is mounted to the second connection pin P2, the second contact Q2 is mounted to the third connection pin P3, and the first contact Q1 is mounted to the fourth connection pin P4. The camera detection signal is a digital voltage signal of "10". The logic controller 310 is configured to compare the received camera detection signal with the forward access detection signal, the reverse access detection signal, and the no access detection signal, respectively. If the camera detection signal is the same as the reverse access detection signal, it can be determined that the camera detection signal is the reverse access detection signal, thereby outputting the second mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal. The selection circuit 320 is configured to receive the second mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, and in response to the second mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the fourth connection pin P4, and connect the first connection pin P1 to the ground terminal GND. Furthermore, the second connection pin P2 and the third connection pin P3 are connected to the image data transmission terminal, and the image data captured by the camera is transmitted through the second connection pin P2 and the third connection pin P3.
[0213] For example, when the camera is not connected to the display device 100, the camera detection signal is a digital voltage signal of "11". The logic controller 310 is configured to compare the received camera detection signal with the forward connection detection signal, the reverse connection detection signal, and the non-connection detection signal, respectively. If the camera detection signal is the same as the non-connection detection signal, it can be determined that the camera detection signal is the non-connection detection signal, thereby outputting a third mode configuration signal and a voltage output disable signal. The selection circuit 320 is configured to receive the third mode configuration signal and the voltage output disable signal, and stop working in response to the third mode configuration signal and the voltage output disable signal, that is, disconnect the camera power supply voltage VCC from the fourth connection pin P4, disconnect the first connection pin P1 from the ground terminal GND, and disconnect the second connection pin P2 and the third connection pin P3 from the image data transmission terminal, thereby saving power consumption.
[0214] For example, the motherboard of the display device 100 is equipped with a logic controller 310. The logic controller 310 controls the power-on and power-off sequence of the display device 100, controls the keyboard, displays the brightness, controls the indicator lights, and controls the fan, etc. Of course, the logic controller 310 can also perform other functions, which will not be listed here. Although the logic controller 310 can perform these functions, it also has some reserved pins. In this embodiment, the reserved pins in the logic controller 310 are reused, and these pins are connected to the first magnetic field sensor 120 and the selection circuit 320 respectively, thereby transmitting corresponding signals.
[0215] For example, the logic controller 310 includes, but is not limited to, an embedded controller (EC).
[0216] For example, image data captured by a camera can be transmitted in the form of differential signals. Optionally, the image data transmission end includes: a first differential signal transmission end D+ and a second differential signal transmission end D-. The first differential signal transmission end D+ and the second differential signal transmission end D- can transmit differential signals. For example, as... Figure 10a As shown, the selectable conduction circuit 320 can be further configured to, in response to the first mode configuration signal, provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the first connection pin P1, connect the second connection pin P2 to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, connect the third connection pin P3 to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-, and connect the fourth connection pin P4 to the ground terminal GND.
[0217] For example, such as Figure 10bAs shown, the selectable conduction circuit 320 can be further configured to, in response to the second mode configuration signal, provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the fourth connection pin P4, connect the second connection pin P2 to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-, connect the third connection pin P3 to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and connect the first connection pin P1 to the ground terminal GND.
[0218] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the electronic device further includes a system controller 400, which may be disposed on the motherboard of the display device 100. Exemplarily, the system controller can control the operation of the display device 100. For example, the system controller includes, but is not limited to, a system-on-a-chip (SoC) or a central processing unit (CPU).
[0219] In this embodiment, image data captured by the camera can be transmitted to the system controller 400 via a signal line. The system controller 400 processes the received image data and then sends it out via wired or wireless communication, or controls the display screen to display the image. The image data transmission terminal can be a pin of the system controller. For example, when the image data transmission terminal includes a first differential signal transmission terminal D+ and a second differential signal transmission terminal D-, one pin of the system controller 400 serves as the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and the other pin serves as the second differential signal transmission terminal D-.
[0220] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the selection circuit 320 includes a multiplexer 321 and a first switching circuit 322. The first switching circuit 322 is connected to both the logic controller 310 and the multiplexer 321. The multiplexer 321 is connected to the logic controller 310 and first connection pins P1 to Nth connection pins. The first switching circuit 322 is configured to receive a voltage output enable signal and, in response to the voltage output enable signal, provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the multiplexer 321. The multiplexer 321 is configured to receive a first mode configuration signal and, in response to the first mode configuration signal, provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the a-th connection pin, connect the a+1 to a+M-2 connection pins to the image data transmission terminal, and connect the a+M-1 connection pin to the ground terminal GND. In addition, the multiplexer 321 is configured to receive a second mode configuration signal, and in response to the second mode configuration signal, to provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the a+M-1 connection pin, to connect the b+1 to the b+M-2 connection pins to the image data transmission terminal, and to connect the a connection pin to the ground terminal GND.
[0221] For example, such as Figure 10a and Figure 10b As shown, the selection circuit 320 includes a multiplexer 321 and a first switching circuit 322. The first switching circuit 322 is connected to both the logic controller 310 and the multiplexer 321. The multiplexer 321 is connected to the logic controller 310 and first connection pins P1 through P4. The first switching circuit 322 is configured to receive a voltage output enable signal and, in response to the voltage output enable signal, provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the multiplexer 321. The multiplexer 321 is configured to receive a first mode configuration signal and, in response to the first mode configuration signal, provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the first connection pin P1, connect the second connection pin P2 to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+ of the image data transmission terminal, connect the third connection pin P3 to the second differential signal transmission terminal D- of the image data transmission terminal, and connect the fourth connection pin P4 to the ground terminal GND. In addition, the multiplexer 321 is configured to receive a second mode configuration signal, and in response to the second mode configuration signal, to provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the fourth connection pin P4, to connect the third connection pin P3 to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+ of the image data transmission terminal, to connect the second connection pin P2 to the second differential signal transmission terminal D- of the image data transmission terminal, and to connect the first connection pin P1 to the ground terminal GND.
[0222] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the logic controller 310 is further configured to output a third mode configuration signal and a voltage output disable signal when it is determined that the camera detection signal is not detected. The first switching circuit 322 is further configured to receive the voltage output disable signal and, in response to the voltage output disable signal ceasing operation, disconnect the camera power supply voltage VCC from the multiplexer 321. The multiplexer 321 is also configured to receive the third mode configuration signal and, in response to the third mode configuration signal ceasing operation, disconnect the multiplexer 321 from the first connection pin P1 to the fourth connection pin P4 to reduce power consumption.
[0223] For example, the control terminal of the first switching circuit 322 is used to receive a voltage output enable signal and a voltage output disable signal. Its first terminal is used to receive the camera power supply voltage VCC, and its second terminal is connected to the multiplexer 321. Specifically, the first switching circuit 322 is turned on under the control of the voltage output enable signal, providing the camera power supply voltage VCC to the multiplexer 321. And, the first switching circuit 322 is turned off under the control of the voltage output disable signal, disconnecting the camera power supply voltage VCC from the multiplexer 321. Optionally, the first switching circuit 322 may include, but is not limited to, a transistor, a triode, a digital switch, or an analog switch.
[0224] Typically, when the display device 100 is not used for a period of time, it can be manually or automatically controlled to enter a sleep state to reduce power consumption. In some embodiments of this disclosure, the system controller is configured to output a sleep recognition signal to the logic controller 310 when it detects that the display device 100 is in a sleep state. The logic controller 310 is also configured to determine that the display device 100 is in a sleep state upon receiving the sleep recognition signal, and to send a voltage output disable signal to the first switching circuit 322 when it is determined that the display device 100 is in a sleep state. This can serve as a first priority; regardless of whether the first connector 210 is installed on the second connector 110, as long as it is determined that the display device 100 is in a sleep state, a voltage output disable signal can be sent to the first switching circuit 322 first, forcing the first switching circuit 322 to disconnect, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC of the camera module 200. This allows for intelligent control of the power supply of the camera module 200, provides current protection capabilities, improves the user experience, and enhances the reliability and safety of the power supply of the camera module 200.
[0225] Typically, when the display device 100 is not used for a period of time, it can be manually or automatically controlled to enter a sleep state to reduce power consumption. In some embodiments of this disclosure, the system controller 400 is configured to output a sleep recognition signal to the logic controller 310 when it detects that the display device 100 is in a sleep state. The logic controller 310 is also configured to determine that the display device 100 is in a sleep state upon receiving the sleep recognition signal, and to send a voltage output disable signal to the first switching circuit 322 when it is determined that the display device 100 is in a sleep state. This can serve as a first priority; regardless of whether the first connector 210 is installed on the second connector 110, as long as it is determined that the display device 100 is in a sleep state, a voltage output disable signal can be sent to the first switching circuit 322 first, forcing the first switching circuit 322 to disconnect, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC of the camera module 200. This allows for intelligent control of the power supply of the camera module 200, provides current protection, improves the user experience, and enhances the reliability and safety of the power supply of the camera module 200.
[0226] For example, when the display device 100 is a laptop computer, and the display device 100 is in a normal power-on operating state, the logic controller 310 will identify two scenarios: screen closed and screen open, through the screen state recognition signal. In the screen closed scenario, it means the user does not need to use the camera function. In this case, the first switch circuit 322 needs to be forcibly shut down first to cut off the power supply to the camera module 200, improving the reliability and safety of the power supply to the camera module 200. In the screen open scenario, the user may use the camera function. In this case, the camera detection signal is used as a basis to determine whether the first switch circuit 322 needs to be turned on. In this embodiment, the system controller 400 is configured to output an operating recognition signal to the logic controller 310 when it detects that the display device 100 is in an operating state. The logic controller 310 is also configured to determine whether the display device 100 is in a closed state upon receiving the operating recognition signal. Specifically, when the logic controller 310 determines that the display device 100 is in a closed state, it sends a voltage output disable signal to the first switching circuit 322. This serves as a second priority; regardless of whether the first connector 210 is installed on the second connector 110, as long as the display device 100 is determined to be in a closed state, the logic controller 310 can prioritize sending a voltage output disable signal to the first switching circuit 322, forcing the first switching circuit 322 to open, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC of the camera module 200. This enables intelligent control of the power supply to the camera module 200, provides current protection, improves the user experience, and enhances the reliability and safety of the power supply to the camera module 200.
[0227] Furthermore, when the logic controller 310 determines that the display device 100 is not in a closed state, it can obtain the camera detection signal and use the camera detection signal as a basis to determine whether the first switch circuit 322 needs to be turned on.
[0228] For example, such as Figure 11a and Figure 11b As shown, the display device 100 also includes a closed magnet 130 and a second magnetic field sensor 140. For example, when the display device 100 is a laptop computer, the closed magnet 130 can be positioned below the touchpad next to the keyboard. The second magnetic field sensor 140 is positioned at the top bezel of the display screen, and its position is opposite to that of the closed magnet 130, allowing the second magnetic field sensor 140 to collect signals.
[0229] For example, the magnetic field strength of the closed magnet 130 can be set differently from that of the first camera magnet CT1 and the second camera magnet CT2. This allows the first magnetic field sensor 120 and the second magnetic field sensor 140 to be configured as a single magnetic field sensor, thereby using the same magnetic field sensor to acquire signals and reducing the number of magnetic field sensors. Of course, the first magnetic field sensor 120 and the second magnetic field sensor 140 can also be two independent magnetic field sensors, which is not limited here.
[0230] For example, such as Figure 11a As shown, when the display screen is closed, the S pole of the closing magnet 130 can be positioned closer to the display screen and the N pole further away from the display screen. Of course, when the display screen is closed, the N pole of the closing magnet 130 can also be positioned closer to the display screen and the S pole further away from the display screen; this is not a limitation.
[0231] For example, such as Figure 11a As shown, taking the first magnetic field sensor 120 and the second magnetic field sensor 140 as the same magnetic field sensor as an example, when the display screen is closed, the closing magnet 130 approaches the first magnetic field sensor 120. The first magnetic field sensor 120 can be configured to output a first screen state recognition signal to the logic controller 310 in response to the closing magnet 130. The logic controller 310 is also configured to receive the first screen state recognition signal, and upon determining that the first screen state recognition signal has been received, it can be determined that the display device 100 is in a closed state.
[0232] For example, such as Figure 11b As shown, taking the first magnetic field sensor 120 and the second magnetic field sensor 140 as the same magnetic field sensor as an example, when the display screen is not closed, the closing magnet 130 is far away from the first magnetic field sensor 120, and the first magnetic field sensor 120 can be configured to output a second screen status recognition signal to the logic controller 310 by default. The logic controller 310 is also configured to receive the second screen status recognition signal, and upon determining that the second screen status recognition signal has been received, determine that the display device 100 is not in a closed state.
[0233] In some examples, taking the first magnetic field sensor 120 and the second magnetic field sensor 140 as the same magnetic field sensor, when the first magnetic field sensor 120 is a dual-output Hall sensor, if the first connector 210 is not installed to the second connector 110 and the display screen is not closed, the first output terminal of the dual-output Hall sensor outputs a second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, represented by "1"), and the second output terminal also outputs a second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, represented by "1"). This second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, represented by "1") and the second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, represented by "1") can be used as the corresponding camera detection signal (e.g., "11") for cameras that have not yet received a detection signal, and sent to the logic controller 310. Alternatively, the second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, represented by "1") and the second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, represented by "1") can be used as a second screen state recognition signal (e.g., "11") and sent to the logic controller 310, so that when the logic controller 310 receives the second screen state recognition signal, it can determine that the display device 100 is in an open state.
[0234] Optionally, taking the first magnetic field sensor 120 and the second magnetic field sensor 140 as the same magnetic field sensor, when the first magnetic field sensor 120 is a dual-output Hall sensor, when the first connector 210 is installed to the second connector 110 and the display screen is not closed, if the camera module 200 is installed in the forward direction to the display device 100, the first output terminal of the dual-output Hall sensor triggers the output of a first level signal (e.g., a low level signal, represented by "0"), and the second output terminal triggers the output of a second level signal (e.g., a high level signal, represented by "1"). The first level signal (e.g., a low level signal, represented by "0") and the second level signal (e.g., a high level signal, represented by "1") can be used as the corresponding forward-accessed camera detection signal (e.g., "01") and sent to the logic controller 310. Alternatively, the first level signal (e.g., a low level signal, represented by "0") and the second level signal (e.g., a high level signal, represented by "1") can be sent to the logic controller 310 as a second screen state recognition signal (e.g., "01"), so that when the logic controller 310 determines that it has received the second screen state recognition signal, it can determine that the display device 100 is in a non-closed state.
[0235] Optionally, taking the first magnetic field sensor 120 and the second magnetic field sensor 140 as the same magnetic field sensor as an example, when the first magnetic field sensor 120 is a dual-output Hall sensor, when the first connector 210 is installed to the second connector 110 and the display screen is not closed, if the camera module 200 is installed in reverse to the display device 100, the first output terminal of the dual-output Hall sensor triggers the output of a second level signal (e.g., a high level signal, represented by "1"), and the second output terminal triggers the output of a first level signal (e.g., a low level signal, represented by "0"). The second level signal (e.g., a high level signal, represented by "1") and the first level signal (e.g., a low level signal, represented by "0") can be used as the corresponding reverse access detection signal camera detection signal (e.g., "10") and sent to the logic controller 310. Alternatively, a second level signal (e.g., a high level signal, represented by "1") and a first level signal (e.g., a low level signal, represented by "0") can be sent to the logic controller 310 as a second screen state recognition signal (e.g., "10"), so that when the logic controller 310 determines that it has received the second screen state recognition signal, it can determine that the display device 100 is in a non-closed state.
[0236] In some other examples, taking the first magnetic field sensor 120 and the second magnetic field sensor 140 as the same magnetic field sensor, when the first magnetic field sensor 120 is a dual-output Hall sensor, if the display screen is closed, regardless of whether the first connector 210 is installed to the second connector 110, the dual-output Hall sensor can respond to the closing magnet 130 by outputting a signal. For example, the first output terminal of the dual-output Hall sensor outputs a first level signal (e.g., a low level signal, represented by "0"), and the second output terminal outputs a first level signal (e.g., a high-low level signal, represented by "0"). The first level signal (e.g., a low level signal, represented by "0") and the second output terminal can be used as a first screen state recognition signal (e.g., "00") and sent to the logic controller 310, so that when the logic controller 310 determines that the display device 100 is in a closed state upon receiving the first screen state recognition signal.
[0237] The above are merely examples illustrating some possible implementations for determining whether a display screen is closed or open. In practical applications, other methods can also be used to determine whether a display screen is closed or open, and these are not limited here.
[0238] The following is combined Figures 10a to 11b The working process of the electronic device provided in the embodiments of this disclosure is described.
[0239] When the system controller 400 detects that the display device 100 is in an operating state, it outputs an operating identification signal to the logic controller 310. Upon receiving the operating identification signal, the logic controller 310 determines whether the display device 100 is in a closed state. If the first magnetic field sensor 120 responds to the closed magnet 130 and outputs a first screen status identification signal to the logic controller 310, the logic controller 310 can determine that the display device 100 is in a closed state based on the first screen status identification signal. Regardless of whether the first connector 210 is installed on the second connector 110, when it is determined that the display device 100 is in a closed state, the logic controller 310 can send a voltage output disable signal to the first switching circuit 322, forcing the first switching circuit 322 to open, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC.
[0240] Since the closed magnet 130 is far from the first magnetic field sensor 120, the second magnetic field sensor 140 will not be triggered by the closed magnet 130 to output a second screen status recognition signal to the logic controller 310. The logic controller 310 can determine that the display device 100 is not in a closed state based on the second screen status recognition signal.
[0241] If the first output terminal of the dual-output Hall sensor outputs a second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, denoted by "1"), and the second output terminal also outputs a second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, denoted by "1"), then both the second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, denoted by "1") and the second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, denoted by "1") can be sent to the logic controller 310 as corresponding camera detection signals (e.g., "11") that are not connected to the detection signal. Alternatively, both the second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, denoted by "1") and the second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, denoted by "1") can be sent to the logic controller 310 as a second screen state recognition signal (e.g., "11"), so that when the logic controller 310 receives the second screen state recognition signal, it can determine that the display device 100 is in a non-closed state. The logic controller 310 compares the received camera detection signal (e.g., "11") with the forward access detection signal, the reverse access detection signal, and the no-access detection signal. If the camera detection signal is the same as the no-access detection signal (e.g., "11"), it can be determined that the camera detection signal is the no-access detection signal, indicating that the camera is not installed on the display device 100. The logic controller 310 then outputs a third mode configuration signal and a voltage output disable signal. The first switching circuit 322 stops operating in response to the voltage output disable signal, disconnecting the camera power supply voltage VCC from the multiplexer 321. The multiplexer 321 stops operating in response to the third mode configuration signal, disconnecting the multiplexer 321 from the first connection pin P1 to the fourth connection pin P4, reducing power consumption.
[0242] If the camera module 200 is mounted face-up on the display device 100, the first output terminal of the dual-output Hall sensor triggers the output of a first-level signal (e.g., a low-level signal, represented by "0"), and the second output terminal triggers the output of a second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, represented by "1"). This allows the first-level signal (e.g., a low-level signal, represented by "0") and the second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, represented by "1") to be sent to the logic controller 310 as corresponding camera detection signals (e.g., "01") for the face-up detection signal. Alternatively, the first-level signal (e.g., a low-level signal, represented by "0") and the second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, represented by "1") can be sent to the logic controller 310 as a second screen state recognition signal (e.g., "01"), so that when the logic controller 310 receives the second screen state recognition signal, it can determine that the display device 100 is in a non-closed state. The logic controller 310 compares the received camera detection signal (e.g., "01") with the forward access detection signal, reverse access detection signal, and no access detection signal. If the camera detection signal is the same as the forward access detection signal (e.g., "01"), it can be determined that the camera detection signal is a forward access detection signal, indicating that the camera is mounted on the display device 100 in the forward direction. Then, the logic controller 310 outputs a first mode configuration signal and a voltage output enable signal. The first switching circuit 322 turns on in response to the voltage output enable signal, providing the camera power supply voltage VCC to the multiplexer 321. The multiplexer 321 operates in response to the first mode configuration signal, providing the camera power supply voltage VCC to the first connection pin P1, connecting the second connection pin P2 to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+ of the image data transmission terminal, connecting the third connection pin P3 to the second differential signal transmission terminal D- of the image data transmission terminal, and connecting the fourth connection pin P4 to the ground terminal GND. This allows the camera to capture images in front of the display screen of the display device 100 and send the captured image data out.
[0243] If the system controller 400 detects that the display device 100 is in a sleep state when the camera module 200 is installed face-up onto the display device 100, it outputs a sleep recognition signal to the logic controller 310. Upon receiving the sleep recognition signal, the logic controller 310 determines that the display device 100 is in a sleep state and sends a voltage output disable signal to the first switching circuit 322, forcing the first switching circuit 322 to disconnect, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC of the camera module 200. This allows for intelligent control of the power supply to the camera module 200, provides current protection, improves the user experience, and enhances the reliability and safety of the power supply to the camera module 200.
[0244] If the system controller 400 detects that the display device 100 is in a sleep state when the camera module 200 is mounted face-up on the display device 100, it outputs a sleep recognition signal to the logic controller 310. Upon receiving the sleep recognition signal, the logic controller 310 determines that the display device 100 is in a sleep state and sends a voltage output disable signal to the first switching circuit 322, forcing the first switching circuit 322 to disconnect, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC of the camera module 200. This allows for intelligent control of the power supply to the camera module 200, provides current protection, improves the user experience, and enhances the reliability and safety of the power supply to the camera module 200.
[0245] If the system controller 400 detects that the display device 100 is in operation when the camera module 200 is mounted face-up on the display device 100, it outputs an operation recognition signal to the logic controller 310. Upon receiving the operation recognition signal, if the logic controller 310 also receives the first screen status recognition signal, it can determine that the display device 100 is in a closed state. It then sends a voltage output disable signal to the first switch circuit 322, forcing the first switch circuit 322 to open, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC of the camera module 200. This intelligently controls the power supply of the camera module 200, provides current protection, improves the user experience, and enhances the reliability and safety of the power supply to the camera module 200. When the display screen changes from a closed state to an open state, the closing magnet 130 moves away from the first magnetic field sensor 120, and the second magnetic field sensor 140 is not triggered by the closing magnet 130. Therefore, it outputs a second screen status recognition signal to the logic controller 310. Upon receiving the second screen status recognition signal, the logic controller 310 can determine that the display device 100 is not in a closed state. The logic controller 310 can acquire the camera detection signal again and, based on the camera detection signal, determine whether the first switch circuit 322 and the multiplexer 321 need to be activated. If the first switch circuit 322 does not need to be activated, a voltage output disable signal can be sent to the first switch circuit 322. If the multiplexer 321 does not need to be activated, a third mode configuration signal can be sent to the multiplexer 321. If the first switch circuit 322 needs to be activated, a voltage output enable signal can be sent to the first switch circuit 322. If the multiplexer 321 needs to be activated, a first mode configuration signal can be sent to the multiplexer 321.
[0246] If the camera module 200 is mounted in reverse to the display device 100, the first output terminal of the dual-output Hall sensor triggers the output of a second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, represented by "1"), and the second output terminal triggers the output of a first-level signal (e.g., a low-level signal, represented by "0"). This can be used not only as the camera detection signal (e.g., "10") corresponding to the reverse-access detection signal, but also as the second-level signal (e.g., a high-level signal, represented by "1") and the first-level signal (e.g., a low-level signal, represented by "0"), which are then sent to the logic controller 310, but also as the second screen state recognition signal (e.g., "10"), which is then sent to the logic controller 310. This allows the logic controller 310 to determine that the display device 100 is in a non-closed state upon receiving the second screen state recognition signal. The logic controller 310 compares the received camera detection signal (e.g., "10") with the forward access detection signal, the reverse access detection signal, and the no-access detection signal. If the camera detection signal is the same as the reverse access detection signal (e.g., "10"), it is determined that the camera detection signal is a reverse access detection signal, indicating that the camera is installed in reverse on the display device 100. The logic controller 310 then outputs a second mode configuration signal and a voltage output enable signal. The first switching circuit 322, responding to the voltage output enable signal, conducts and provides the camera power supply voltage VCC to the multiplexer 321. The multiplexer 321, responding to the second mode configuration signal, provides the camera power supply voltage VCC to the fourth connection pin P4, connects the third connection pin P3 to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+ of the image data transmission terminal, connects the second connection pin P2 to the second differential signal transmission terminal D- of the image data transmission terminal, and connects the first connection pin P1 to the ground terminal GND. This allows the camera to capture images behind the display screen of the display device 100 and send the captured image data out.
[0247] If the system controller 400 detects that the display device 100 is in a sleep state when the camera module 200 is installed in reverse on the display device 100, it outputs a sleep recognition signal to the logic controller 310. Upon receiving the sleep recognition signal, the logic controller 310 determines that the display device 100 is in a sleep state and sends a voltage output disable signal to the first switching circuit 322, forcing the first switching circuit 322 to disconnect, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC of the camera module 200. This allows for intelligent control of the power supply to the camera module 200, provides current protection, improves the user experience, and enhances the reliability and safety of the power supply to the camera module 200.
[0248] If the system controller 400 detects that the display device 100 is in a sleep state when the camera module 200 is installed in reverse on the display device 100, it outputs a sleep recognition signal to the logic controller 310. Upon receiving the sleep recognition signal, the logic controller 310 determines that the display device 100 is in a sleep state and sends a voltage output disable signal to the first switching circuit 322, forcing the first switching circuit 322 to disconnect, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC of the camera module 200. This allows for intelligent control of the power supply to the camera module 200, provides current protection, improves the user experience, and enhances the reliability and safety of the power supply to the camera module 200.
[0249] If the system controller 400 detects that the display device 100 is in operation when the camera module 200 is installed in reverse on the display device 100, it outputs an operation recognition signal to the logic controller 310. Upon receiving the operation recognition signal, if the logic controller 310 also receives the first screen status recognition signal, it can determine that the display device 100 is in a closed state. It then sends a voltage output disable signal to the first switch circuit 322, forcing the first switch circuit 322 to open, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC of the camera module 200. This intelligently controls the power supply of the camera module 200, provides current protection, improves the user experience, and enhances the reliability and safety of the power supply to the camera module 200. When the display screen changes from a closed state to an open state, the closing magnet 130 moves away from the first magnetic field sensor 120, and the second magnetic field sensor 140 is not triggered by the closing magnet 130. Therefore, it outputs a second screen status recognition signal to the logic controller 310. Upon receiving the second screen status recognition signal, the logic controller 310 can determine that the display device 100 is not in a closed state. The logic controller 310 can acquire the camera detection signal again and, based on the camera detection signal, determine whether the first switch circuit 322 and the multiplexer 321 need to be activated. If the first switch circuit 322 does not need to be activated, a voltage output disable signal can be sent to the first switch circuit 322. If the multiplexer 321 does not need to be activated, a third mode configuration signal can be sent to the multiplexer 321. If the first switch circuit 322 needs to be activated, a voltage output enable signal can be sent to the first switch circuit 322. If the multiplexer 321 needs to be activated, a second mode configuration signal can be sent to the multiplexer 321.
[0250] This disclosure provides further structural schematic diagrams of electronic devices, such as... Figure 12 As shown, this embodiment is a variation of the implementation described in the above embodiments. The differences between this embodiment and the above embodiments will be described below, while the similarities will not be repeated.
[0251] In the embodiments disclosed herein, such as Figure 12 As shown, the detection control circuit 300 includes a logic controller 310 and a selection and conduction circuit 320. The Mth contact point and the (M-1)th contact point are connected via an electromagnetic switch 211. When power is supplied to the camera module 200, the electromagnetic switch 211 is turned off. When power is not supplied to the camera module 200, the electromagnetic switch 211 is turned on. Exemplarily, the electromagnetic switch may include, but is not limited to, a solenoid valve.
[0252] In the embodiments disclosed herein, such as Figure 12 As shown, the display device 100 further includes: a first pull-up resistor R1, a second pull-up resistor R2, and a switch control circuit 500; the first pull-up voltage VP1 is connected to the first connection pin P1 through the first pull-up resistor R1, so the first connection pin P1 can be pulled up to a high level by the first pull-up voltage VP1. The second pull-up voltage VP2 is connected to the Nth connection pin through the second pull-up resistor R2, so the second connection pin P2 can be pulled up to a high level by the second pull-up voltage VP2.
[0253] For example, the resistance value of the first pull-up resistor R1 and the resistance value of the second pull-up resistor R2 can be the same or different, and this is not limited here.
[0254] For example, the first pull-up voltage VP1 and the second pull-up voltage VP2 may be the same or different, and this is not limited here.
[0255] For example, the first pull-up voltage VP1 and the second pull-up voltage VP2 can be input through the same pull-up voltage terminal, or they can be input through two independent pull-up voltage terminals respectively, without limitation.
[0256] In this embodiment, the logic controller 310 is connected to the first connection pin P1 and the Nth connection pin via a switch control circuit 500. The switch control circuit 500 can either connect the first connection pin P1 and the Nth connection pin to the logic controller 310 or disconnect them. For example, taking N=M=4, as shown in Figure 12, the logic controller 310 is connected to the first connection pin P1 and the fourth connection pin P4 via the switch control circuit 500. The switch control circuit 500 can either connect the first connection pin P1 and the fourth connection pin P4 to the logic controller 310 or disconnect them.
[0257] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the second connection pin P2 to the (N-1)th connection pin are respectively connected to the ground terminal GND through the switch control circuit 500. The switch control circuit 500 can either connect the second connection pin P2 to the (N-1)th connection pin to the ground terminal GND or disconnect the second connection pin P2 to the (N-1)th connection pin from the ground terminal GND. For example, taking N=M=4 as an example, as shown in Figure 12, the second connection pin P2 and the third connection pin P3 are respectively connected to the ground terminal GND through the switch control circuit 500. The switch control circuit 500 can either connect the second connection pin P2 and the third connection pin P3 to the ground terminal GND or disconnect the second connection pin P2 and the third connection pin P3 from the ground terminal GND.
[0258] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the switch control circuit 500 is further configured to, in response to a switch control enable signal, connect the first connection pin P1 and the Nth connection pin to the logic controller 310, and connect the second connection pin P2 to the (N-1)th connection pins to the ground terminal GND. For example, as... Figure 12 , Figure 13a as well as Figure 13b As shown, the switch control circuit 500 is also configured to, in response to a switch control enable signal, connect the first connection pin P1 and the fourth connection pin P4 to the logic controller 310, and connect the second connection pin P2 and the third connection pin P3 to the ground terminal GND.
[0259] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the switch control circuit 500 is further configured to disconnect the first connection pin P1 and the Nth connection pin from the logic controller 310, and to disconnect the second connection pin P2 and the (N-1)th connection pin from the ground terminal GND, in response to a switch control disable signal. For example, as... Figures 12 to 13b As shown, in response to the switch control inactivation signal, the switch control circuit 500 disconnects the first connection pin P1 and the fourth connection pin P4 from the logic controller 310, and disconnects the second connection pin P2 and the third connection pin P3 from the ground terminal GND.
[0260] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the logic controller 310 is further configured to, when connected to the first connection pin P1 and the Nth connection pin respectively through the switch control circuit 500, acquire the pin level signal of the first connection pin P1 and the pin level signal of the Nth connection pin, and use the pin level signal of the first connection pin and the pin level signal of the Nth connection pin as camera detection signals; when the pin level signal of the first connection pin is a first level signal and the pin level signal of the Nth connection pin is a second level signal, determine that the camera detection signal is a forward access detection signal; when the pin level signal of the first connection pin is a second level signal and the pin level signal of the Nth connection pin is a first level signal, determine that the camera detection signal is a reverse access detection signal.
[0261] For example, taking N=M=4, as shown in 13a, the logic controller 310 is further configured to acquire the pin level signal of the first connection pin P1 and the pin level signal of the fourth connection pin P4 when the switch control circuit 500 is connected to the first connection pin P1 and the fourth connection pin P4 respectively, and use the pin level signals of the first connection pin P1 and the fourth connection pin P4 as camera detection signals. Specifically, when the pin level signal of the first connection pin P1 is a first level signal (e.g., high level) and the pin level signal of the fourth connection pin P4 is a second level signal (e.g., low level), the camera detection signal is determined to be a forward access detection signal. For example, if the camera module 200 is mounted forward on the display device 100, the third connection contact Q3 and the fourth connection contact Q4 of the camera module 200 form a current loop with the third connection pin P3 and the fourth connection pin P4, causing the fourth connection pin P4 to be grounded, then the fourth connection pin P4 is set to a low level. The first connection pin P1 is still pulled up to a high level by the first pull-up voltage VP1, so the camera detection signal can be determined as a positive access detection signal.
[0262] For example, taking N=M=4, as shown in 13b, the logic controller 310 is further configured to acquire the pin level signal of the first connection pin P1 and the pin level signal of the fourth connection pin P4 when the switch control circuit 500 is connected to the first connection pin P1 and the fourth connection pin P4 respectively, and use the pin level signals of the first connection pin P1 and the fourth connection pin P4 as camera detection signals. Specifically, when the pin level signal of the first connection pin P1 is a second level signal (e.g., low level) and the pin level signal of the fourth connection pin P4 is a first level signal (e.g., high level), the camera detection signal is determined to be a reverse access detection signal. For example, if the camera module 200 is installed in reverse onto the display device 100, the third connection contact Q3 and the fourth connection contact Q4 of the camera module 200 form a current loop with the first connection pin P1 and the second connection pin P2, grounding the first connection pin P1, and thus setting the first connection pin P1 to a low level. Meanwhile, the fourth connection pin P4 is still pulled up to a high level by the second pull-up voltage VP2, which can make the camera detection signal determine as the reverse access detection signal.
[0263] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the logic controller 310 is further configured to output a switch control disable signal to the switch control circuit 500 when it is determined that the camera detection signal is a forward access detection signal and when it is determined that the camera detection signal is a reverse access detection signal, thereby controlling the switch control circuit 500 to disconnect the first connection pin P1 and the Nth connection pin from the logic controller 310, and to disconnect the second connection pin P2 to the (N-1)th connection pin from the ground terminal GND.
[0264] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the system controller 400 is further configured to detect that the first connector 210 and the second connector 110 are disconnected, and output a camera disconnect signal to the logic controller 310. The logic controller 310 is further configured to determine that the first connector 210 and the second connector 110 are disconnected in response to the camera disconnect signal. Exemplarily, the connection status of the first connector 210 and the second connector 110 is identified through an input / output module in the system controller 400, and a camera disconnect signal is output to the logic controller 310 when the first connector 210 and the second connector 110 are detected to be disconnected. The logic controller 310 is further configured to determine that the first connector 210 and the second connector 110 are disconnected in response to the camera disconnect signal.
[0265] Furthermore, upon detecting a connection between the first connector 210 and the second connector 110, a camera connection signal is output to the logic controller 310. The logic controller 310 is also configured to determine a connection between the first connector 210 and the second connector 110 in response to the camera connection signal.
[0266] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the logic controller 310 is further configured to output a switch control enable signal to the switch control circuit 500 when it is determined that the first connector 210 and the second connector 110 are disconnected. This enables the switch control circuit 500 to connect the first connection pin P1 and the Nth connection pin to the logic controller 310, and to connect the second connection pin P2 to the (N-1)th connection pins to the ground terminal GND. Furthermore, the logic controller 310 is also configured to acquire a camera detection signal when it is determined that the first connector 210 and the second connector 110 are connected.
[0267] The following is combined Figures 12 to 13b The working process of the electronic device provided in the embodiments of this disclosure is described.
[0268] If the camera module 200 is mounted face-up onto the display device 100, the third connection contact Q3 and the fourth connection contact Q4 of the camera module 200 form a current loop with the third connection pin P3 and the fourth connection pin P4, grounding the fourth connection pin P4, which is then set to a low level. Meanwhile, the first connection pin P1 remains pulled high by the first pull-up voltage VP1, thus ensuring the camera detection signal is correctly identified as a face-up detection signal. Furthermore, the logic controller 310 outputs a switch control disable signal to the switch control circuit 500, causing the switch control circuit 500 to disconnect the first connection pin P1 and the fourth connection pin P4 from the logic controller 310, and to disconnect the second connection pin P2 and the third connection pin P3 from the ground terminal GND. The logic controller 310 also outputs a first mode configuration signal to the selection circuit 320, controlling the selection circuit 320 to provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the first connection pin P1, connect the second connection pin P2 to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, connect the third connection pin P3 to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-, and connect the fourth connection pin P4 to the ground terminal GND to supply power to the camera module 200, and then the electromagnetic switch 211 is turned off.
[0269] If the camera module 200 is installed in reverse onto the display device 100, the third connection contact Q3 and the fourth connection contact Q4 of the camera module 200 form a current loop with the first connection pin P1 and the second connection pin P2, grounding the first connection pin P1, which is then set to a low level. The fourth connection pin P4 remains pulled high by the second pull-up voltage VP2, thus allowing the camera detection signal to be identified as a reverse-access detection signal. Furthermore, the logic controller 310 outputs a switch control disable signal to the switch control circuit 500, causing the switch control circuit 500 to disconnect the first connection pin P1 and the fourth connection pin P4 from the logic controller 310, and to disconnect the second connection pin P2 and the third connection pin P3 from the ground terminal GND. The logic controller 310 also outputs a second mode configuration signal to the selection circuit 320, which controls the selection circuit 320 to provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the fourth connection pin P4, connect the second connection pin P2 to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-, connect the third connection pin P3 to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and connect the first connection pin P1 to the ground terminal GND to supply power to the camera module 200. Then the electromagnetic switch 211 is turned off.
[0270] When the camera module 200 is unplugged or disconnected, the input / output module in the system controller 400 can detect that the first connector 210 and the second connector 110 are disconnected, and then outputs a camera disconnect signal to the logic controller 310. Based on the camera disconnect signal, the logic controller 310 can determine that the first connector 210 and the second connector 110 are disconnected, and then outputs a switch control enable signal to the switch control circuit 500. This controls the switch control circuit 500 to connect the first connection pin P1 and the fourth connection pin P4 to the logic controller 310, and to connect the second connection pin P2 and the third connection pin P3 to the ground terminal GND. This causes the first connection pin P1 to be pulled high by the first pull-up voltage VP1, the fourth connection pin P4 to be pulled high by the second pull-up resistor R2, and both the second connection pin P2 and the third connection pin P3 to the ground terminal GND.
[0271] This disclosure provides further structural schematic diagrams of electronic devices, such as... Figure 14a As shown, this embodiment is a variation of the implementation described in the above embodiments. The differences between this embodiment and the above embodiments will be described below, while the similarities will not be repeated.
[0272] In some embodiments of this disclosure, N can be set to an odd number, that is, the number of connection pins on the second connector 110 can be set to an odd number. For example, the Nth connection pin can be connected to the ground terminal GND. The second connection pins P2 to the (N-1) / 2nd connection pin and the (N+3) / 2nd connection pin to the (N-1)th connection pin are connected to the image data transmission terminal. Furthermore, among the second connection pins P2 to the (N-1) / 2nd connection pin and the (N+3) / 2nd connection pin to the (N-1)th connection pin, the connection pins corresponding to the image data transmission terminal with the same performance are mirror-symmetrically arranged about the (N+1) / 2nd connection pin. Alternatively, the image data captured by the camera can also be transmitted via wireless communication technology. The camera module 200 may also include a first wireless communication component, through which the camera module 200 can send the captured image data. Further, the display device 100 also includes a second wireless communication component. The display device 100 interacts with the first communication component via the second wireless communication component to obtain the image data sent by the first communication component.
[0273] For example, such as Figures 14a to 17b As shown, the seventh connection pin P7 can be connected to the ground terminal GND. The second connection pin P2, the third connection pin P3, the fifth connection pin P5, and the sixth connection pin P6 are connected to the image data transmission terminal. Optionally, the image data transmission terminal includes: a first differential signal transmission terminal D+ and a second differential signal transmission terminal D-, with the second connection pin P2 and the sixth connection pin P6 connected to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and the third connection pin P3 and the fifth connection pin P5 connected to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-.
[0274] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the number of connection contacts on the first connector 210 can be the same as the number of connection pins on the second connector 110, i.e., N = M, and N is set to an odd number. For example, the (M+1) / 2nd connection contact is configured to connect to the camera power supply voltage VCC. The first connection contact Q1 and the Mth connection contact are connected, making the first connection contact Q1 and the Mth connection contact essentially conductive. Furthermore, the Mth connection contact is configured to connect to the ground terminal GND. Therefore, after the Mth connection contact is conductive to the ground terminal GND, the first connection contact Q1 is also effectively conductive to the ground terminal GND.
[0275] In some examples, the second connecting contact Q2 to the (M-1) / 2nd connecting contact are configured to connect to the image data transmission end, and the (M+3) / 2nd connecting contact to the (N-1)th connecting contact are configured as virtual connecting contacts. A virtual connecting contact refers to a contact that is in a floating state, meaning it is not connected to other signal lines in the camera module 200 and does not transmit signals. For example, as... Figure 14a and Figure 14b As shown, taking N=M=7 as an example, the fourth contact point Q4 is configured to connect to the camera power supply voltage VCC. The first contact point Q1 and the seventh contact point Q7 are connected, making them essentially conductive. Furthermore, the seventh contact point Q7 is configured to connect to the ground terminal GND. Therefore, after the seventh contact point Q7 is conductive to the ground terminal GND, the first contact point Q1 is also effectively conductive to the ground terminal GND. The second contact point Q2 and the third contact point Q3 are configured to connect to the image data transmission terminal, and the fifth contact point Q5 and the sixth contact point Q6 are configured as virtual contact points, in a floating state (NC). Optionally, the image data transmission terminal includes: a first differential signal transmission terminal D+ and a second differential signal transmission terminal D-. The second contact point Q2 is configured to connect to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and the third contact point Q3 is configured to connect to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-. Additionally, the second connection pin P2 and the sixth connection pin P6 are connected to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and the third connection pin P3 and the fifth connection pin P5 are connected to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-.
[0276] And, as Figure 14a As shown, when the camera module 200 is mounted face-up on the display device 100, the first contact point Q1 is mounted to the first connection pin P1, the second contact point Q2 is mounted to the second connection pin P2, the third contact point Q3 is mounted to the third connection pin P3, the fourth contact point Q4 is mounted to the fourth connection pin P4, the fifth contact point Q5 is mounted to the fifth connection pin P5, the sixth contact point Q6 is mounted to the sixth connection pin P6, and the seventh contact point Q7 is mounted to the seventh connection pin P7.
[0277] like Figure 14b As shown, when the camera module 200 is mounted in reverse onto the display device 100, the first contact point Q1 is mounted to the seventh connection pin P7, the second contact point Q2 is mounted to the sixth connection pin P6, the third contact point Q3 is mounted to the fifth connection pin P5, the fourth contact point Q4 is mounted to the fourth connection pin P4, the fifth contact point Q5 is mounted to the third connection pin P3, the sixth contact point Q6 is mounted to the second connection pin P2, and the seventh contact point Q7 is mounted to the first connection pin P1.
[0278] In some other examples, the second connecting contact point Q2 to the (M-1) / 2nd connecting contact point are configured as virtual connecting contact points, and the (M+3) / 2nd connecting contact point to the (N-1)th connecting contact point are configured to connect image data transmission ends. For example, as... Figure 15a and Figure 15bAs shown, taking N=M=7 as an example, the fourth contact point Q4 is configured to connect to the camera power supply voltage VCC. The first contact point Q1 and the seventh contact point Q7 are connected, making them essentially conductive. Furthermore, the seventh contact point Q7 is configured to connect to the ground terminal GND. Therefore, after the seventh contact point Q7 is conductive to the ground terminal GND, the first contact point Q1 is also effectively conductive to the ground terminal GND. The second and third contact points Q2 and Q3 are configured as virtual contact points, in a floating state (NC). The fifth and sixth contact points Q5 and Q6 are configured to connect to the image data transmission terminal. Optionally, the image data transmission terminal includes: a first differential signal transmission terminal D+ and a second differential signal transmission terminal D-. The sixth contact point Q6 is configured to connect to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and the fifth contact point Q5 is configured to connect to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-. Additionally, the second connection pin P2 and the sixth connection pin P6 are connected to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and the third connection pin P3 and the fifth connection pin P5 are connected to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-.
[0279] And, as Figure 15a As shown, when the camera module 200 is mounted face-up on the display device 100, the first contact point Q1 is mounted to the first connection pin P1, the second contact point Q2 is mounted to the second connection pin P2, the third contact point Q3 is mounted to the third connection pin P3, the fourth contact point Q4 is mounted to the fourth connection pin P4, the fifth contact point Q5 is mounted to the fifth connection pin P5, the sixth contact point Q6 is mounted to the sixth connection pin P6, and the seventh contact point Q7 is mounted to the seventh connection pin P7.
[0280] like Figure 15b As shown, when the camera module 200 is mounted in reverse onto the display device 100, the first contact point Q1 is mounted to the seventh connection pin P7, the second contact point Q2 is mounted to the sixth connection pin P6, the third contact point Q3 is mounted to the fifth connection pin P5, the fourth contact point Q4 is mounted to the fourth connection pin P4, the fifth contact point Q5 is mounted to the third connection pin P3, the sixth contact point Q6 is mounted to the second connection pin P2, and the seventh contact point Q7 is mounted to the first connection pin P1.
[0281] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the number of connection pins on the second connector 110 may be greater than the number of connection points on the first connector 210, i.e., N>M. For example, the first connection point Q1 and the Mth connection point are connected, such that the first connection point Q1 and the Mth connection point are essentially in a conductive state. Furthermore, the Mth connection point is configured to be connected to the ground terminal GND; therefore, after the Mth connection point is conductive to the ground terminal GND, the first connection point Q1 is also essentially conductive to the ground terminal GND. Additionally, the Nth connection pin is connected to the ground terminal GND, and the second connection pins P2 to the (N-1) / 2nd connection pin and the (N+3) / 2nd connection pins to the (N-1)th connection pin are connected to the image data transmission terminal. Furthermore, the connection pins of the image data transmission terminal with the same performance as the second connection pins P2 to the (N-1) / 2nd connection pin and the (N+3) / 2nd connection pins to the (N-1)th connection pin are arranged in a mirror-symmetrical manner with respect to the (N+1) / 2nd connection pin.
[0282] In some examples, the second contact point Q2 to the (N-2)th contact point are configured to connect to the image data transmission end, the (M-1)th contact point is configured to connect to the camera power supply voltage VCC, and there is a first interval distance hd1 between the (N-1)th contact point and the Nth contact point. The first interval distance hd1 is approximately (N-M+1)h, where h is the distance between two adjacent contact points. For example, as... Figure 16a and Figure 16b As shown, taking M=5 and N=7 as an example, the fourth contact point Q4 is configured to connect to the camera power supply voltage VCC. The first contact point Q1 and the fifth contact point Q5 are connected, making them essentially conductive. Furthermore, the fifth contact point Q5 is configured to connect to the ground terminal GND. Therefore, when the fifth contact point Q5 is conductive to the ground terminal GND, the first contact point Q1 is also essentially conductive to the ground terminal GND. The second contact point Q2 and the third contact point Q3 are configured to connect to the image data transmission terminal. There is a first interval distance hd1 between the fourth contact point Q4 and the fifth contact point Q5, and this first interval distance hd1 is approximately 3h. Optionally, the image data transmission terminal includes: a first differential signal transmission terminal D+ and a second differential signal transmission terminal D-. The second contact point Q2 is configured to connect to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and the third contact point Q3 is configured to connect to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-. Additionally, the second connection pin P2 and the sixth connection pin P6 are connected to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and the third connection pin P3 and the fifth connection pin P5 are connected to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-.
[0283] And, as Figure 16aAs shown, when the camera module 200 is mounted on the display device 100 in the forward direction, the first contact point Q1 is mounted to the first connection pin P1, the second contact point Q2 is mounted to the second connection pin P2, the third contact point Q3 is mounted to the third connection pin P3, the fourth contact point Q4 is mounted to the fourth connection pin P4, and the fifth contact point Q5 is mounted to the seventh connection pin P7.
[0284] like Figure 16b As shown, when the camera module 200 is mounted in reverse onto the display device 100, the first contact point Q1 is mounted to the seventh connection pin P7, the second contact point Q2 is mounted to the sixth connection pin P6, the third contact point Q3 is mounted to the fifth connection pin P5, the fourth contact point Q4 is mounted to the fourth connection pin P4, and the fifth contact point Q5 is mounted to the first connection pin P1.
[0285] In some other examples, the third contact point Q3 to the (N-1)th contact point are configured to connect to the image data transmission end, the second contact point Q2 is configured to connect to the camera power supply voltage VCC, and there is a second interval distance hd2 between the first contact point Q1 and the second contact point Q2. The second interval distance hd2 is approximately (N-M+1)h, where h is the distance between two adjacent contact points. For example, as... Figure 17a and Figure 17b As shown, taking M=5 and N=7 as an example, the second contact point Q2 is configured to connect to the camera power supply voltage VCC. The first contact point Q1 and the fifth contact point Q5 are connected, making them essentially conductive. Furthermore, the fifth contact point Q5 is configured to connect to the ground terminal GND. Therefore, when the fifth contact point Q5 is conductive to the ground terminal GND, the first contact point Q1 is also essentially conductive to the ground terminal GND. The third contact point Q3 and the fourth contact point Q4 are configured to connect to the image data transmission terminal. There is a second interval distance hd2 between the first contact point Q1 and the second contact point Q2, and this second interval distance hd2 is approximately 3h. Optionally, the image data transmission terminal includes: a first differential signal transmission terminal D+ and a second differential signal transmission terminal D-. The fourth contact point Q4 is configured to connect to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and the third contact point Q3 is configured to connect to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-. Additionally, the second connection pin P2 and the sixth connection pin P6 are connected to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and the third connection pin P3 and the fifth connection pin P5 are connected to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-.
[0286] And, as Figure 17aAs shown, when the camera module 200 is mounted on the display device 100 in the forward direction, the first contact point Q1 is mounted to the first connection pin P1, the second contact point Q2 is mounted to the fourth connection pin P4, the third contact point Q3 is mounted to the fifth connection pin P5, the fourth contact point Q4 is mounted to the sixth connection pin P6, and the fifth contact point Q5 is mounted to the seventh connection pin P7.
[0287] like Figure 17b As shown, when the camera module 200 is mounted in reverse onto the display device 100, the first contact point Q1 is mounted to the seventh connection pin P7, the second contact point Q2 is mounted to the fourth connection pin P4, the third contact point Q3 is mounted to the third connection pin P3, the fourth contact point Q4 is mounted to the second connection pin P2, and the fifth contact point Q5 is mounted to the first connection pin P1.
[0288] In this embodiment, the detection control circuit 300 includes a logic controller 310 and a selection circuit 320. The selection circuit 320 is connected to both the logic controller 310 and the (N+1) / 2 connection pin. The logic controller 310 is configured to acquire a camera presence detection signal when it determines that the display device 100 is in operation; and when it determines that the camera presence detection signal is valid, it indicates that the camera is mounted on the display device 100 and outputs a voltage enable signal. The selection circuit 320 is configured to receive the voltage enable signal and, in response to the voltage enable signal, provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the (N+1) / 2 connection pin to power the camera module 200. For example, as shown... Figures 14a to 17b As shown, the selected conduction circuit 320 can respond to the voltage output enable signal and provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the fourth connection pin P4 to power the camera module 200.
[0289] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the logic controller 310 is configured to output a voltage disable signal when it determines that the camera presence detection signal is invalid. The selection enable circuit 320 receives the voltage disable signal and, in response to the voltage disable signal, disconnects the camera supply voltage VCC from the (N+1) / 2nd connection pin. For example, as... Figures 14a to 17b As shown, the selector circuit 320 can respond to the voltage output disable signal, disconnect the camera power supply voltage VCC from the fourth connection pin P4, stop supplying power to the camera module 200, and reduce power consumption.
[0290] In this embodiment, the display device 100 further includes a third pull-up resistor R3, and a third pull-up voltage VP3 is connected to the first connection pin P1 through the third pull-up resistor R3. The logic controller 310 is also connected to the first connection pin P1, and the logic controller 310 is further configured to acquire a third pin level signal of the first connection pin P1, and use the third pin level signal as a camera presence detection signal. For example, as... Figures 14a to 15b As shown, the third pull-up voltage VP3 is connected to the first connection pin P1 through the third pull-up resistor R3. When the camera module 200 is not connected to the display device 100, the first connection pin P1 is pulled up by the third pull-up voltage VP3. At this time, the logic controller 310 obtains a high-level signal for the third pin of the first connection pin P1. Since the third pin level signal is used as the camera presence detection signal, a high-level signal indicates that the camera presence detection signal is invalid. When the camera module 200 is mounted in the display device 100, the first connection pin P1 is connected to the ground terminal GND through the first connection contact Q1, the seventh connection contact Q7, and the seventh connection pin P7, causing the first connection pin P1 to be pulled down by the ground terminal GND. At this time, the logic controller 310 obtains a low-level signal for the third pin of the first connection pin P1. Since the third pin level signal is used as the camera presence detection signal, a low-level signal indicates that the camera presence detection signal is valid.
[0291] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the system controller 400 is configured to output a sleep recognition signal to the logic controller 310 when it detects that the display device 100 is in a sleep state. The logic controller 310 is further configured to determine that the display device 100 is in a sleep state upon receiving the sleep recognition signal, and to send a voltage output disable signal to the selection circuit 320 when it is determined that the display device 100 is in a sleep state. The selection circuit 320 receives the voltage output disable signal and, in response to the voltage output disable signal, disconnects the camera power supply voltage VCC from the (N+1) / 2th connection pin. This can serve as a first priority; regardless of whether the first connector 210 is installed on the second connector 110, as long as it is determined that the display device 100 is in a sleep state, a voltage output disable signal can be sent to the selection circuit 320 first, forcing the selection circuit 320 to disconnect, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC of the camera module 200. This allows for intelligent control of the power supply to the camera module 200, providing current protection capabilities, improving the user experience, and enhancing the reliability and security of the power supply to the camera module 200.
[0292] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the system controller 400 is configured to output a sleep detection signal to the logic controller 310 when it detects that the display device 100 is in a sleep state. The logic controller 310 is further configured to determine that the display device 100 is in a sleep state upon receiving the sleep detection signal, and to send a voltage output disable signal to the selection circuit 320 when it is determined that the display device 100 is in a sleep state. The selection circuit 320 receives the voltage output disable signal and, in response to the voltage output disable signal, disconnects the camera power supply voltage VCC from the (N+1) / 2th connection pin. This can serve as a first priority; regardless of whether the first connector 210 is installed on the second connector 110, as long as it is determined that the display device 100 is in a sleep state, a voltage output disable signal can be sent to the selection circuit 320 first, forcing the selection circuit 320 to disconnect, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC of the camera module 200. This allows for intelligent control of the power supply to the camera module 200, providing current protection capabilities, improving the user experience, and enhancing the reliability and security of the power supply to the camera module 200.
[0293] In this embodiment, the system controller 400 is configured to output a running identification signal to the logic controller 310 when it detects that the display device 100 is in a running state. The logic controller 310 is also configured to determine whether the display device 100 is in a closed state upon receiving the running identification signal. Specifically, when the logic controller 310 determines that the display device 100 is in a closed state, it sends a voltage output disable signal to the selection circuit 320. The selection circuit 320 receives the voltage output disable signal and, in response to the voltage output disable signal, disconnects the camera power supply voltage VCC from the (N+1) / 2th connection pin. This can serve as a second priority; regardless of whether the first connector 210 is installed on the second connector 110, as long as it is determined that the display device 100 is in a closed state, a voltage output disable signal can be sent preferentially to the selection circuit 320, forcing the selection circuit 320 to disconnect, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC of the camera module 200. This allows for intelligent control of the power supply to the camera module 200, providing current protection capabilities, improving the user experience, and enhancing the reliability and security of the power supply to the camera module 200.
[0294] Furthermore, when the logic controller 310 determines that the display device 100 is not in a closed state, it can acquire the camera presence detection signal and use the camera presence detection signal as a basis to determine whether the selection conduction circuit 320 needs to be turned on.
[0295] The process of determining whether the display screen is in a closed state or not in a closed state in this embodiment can refer to the working process of the combination of the second magnetic field sensor and the closed magnet described above, and will not be repeated here.
[0296] The following is combined Figure 14a and Figure 14b The working process of the electronic device provided in the embodiments of this disclosure is described.
[0297] If the camera module 200 is mounted face-up on the display device 100, the first connection contact Q1 and the seventh connection contact Q7 of the camera module 200 form a current loop with the first connection pin P1 and the seventh connection pin P7, grounding the first connection pin P1. Therefore, the first connection pin P1 is set to a low level. The logic controller 310 receives a low-level signal from the third pin of the first connection pin P1, confirming that the camera presence detection signal is valid. This indicates that the camera is mounted on the display device 100. The output voltage then outputs an enable signal, controlling the selective conduction circuit to supply the camera power supply voltage VCC to the fourth connection pin P4, thus powering the camera module 200.
[0298] If the system controller detects that the display device 100 is in a sleep state when the camera module 200 is installed face-up onto the display device 100, it outputs a sleep recognition signal to the logic controller 310. Upon receiving the sleep recognition signal, the logic controller 310 determines that the display device 100 is in a sleep state and sends a voltage output disable signal to the selection circuit 320, forcing the selection circuit 320 to disconnect, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC of the camera module 200. This allows for intelligent control of the power supply to the camera module 200, provides current protection, improves the user experience, and enhances the reliability and safety of the power supply to the camera module 200.
[0299] If the system controller detects that the display device 100 is in a sleep state when the camera module 200 is installed face-up onto the display device 100, it outputs a sleep recognition signal to the logic controller 310. Upon receiving the sleep recognition signal, the logic controller 310 determines that the display device 100 is in a sleep state and sends a voltage output disable signal to the selection circuit 320, forcing the selection circuit 320 to disconnect, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC of the camera module 200. This allows for intelligent control of the power supply to the camera module 200, providing current protection, improving the user experience, and enhancing the reliability and safety of the power supply to the camera module 200.
[0300] If the system controller detects that the display device 100 is in operation when the camera module 200 is mounted face-up on the display device 100, it outputs an operation recognition signal to the logic controller 310. Upon receiving the operation recognition signal, if the logic controller 310 also receives the first screen status recognition signal, it can determine that the display device 100 is in a closed state. It then sends a voltage output disable signal to the selection circuit 320, forcing the selection circuit 320 to disconnect, thereby cutting off the camera power supply voltage VCC of the camera module 200. This intelligently controls the power supply of the camera module 200, provides current protection, improves the user experience, and enhances the reliability and safety of the power supply to the camera module 200. When the display screen changes from a closed state to an open state, the closing magnet 130 moves away from the first magnetic field sensor 120, and the second magnetic field sensor 140 is not triggered by the closing magnet 130. Therefore, it outputs a second screen status recognition signal to the logic controller 310. Upon receiving the second screen status recognition signal, the logic controller 310 can determine that the display device 100 is not in a closed state. The logic controller 310 can acquire the camera presence detection signal again and use the camera presence detection signal as a basis to determine whether the selection conduction circuit 320 needs to be turned on.
[0301] Similarly, the process of mounting the camera module 200 in reverse onto the display device 100 can be deduced in the same way, and will not be elaborated here.
[0302] This disclosure provides further structural schematic diagrams of electronic devices, such as... Figure 18 As shown, this embodiment is a variation of the implementation described in the above embodiments. The differences between this embodiment and the above embodiments will be described below, while the similarities will not be repeated.
[0303] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the connection pins corresponding to the same function are mirror-symmetrical about the (N+1) / 2th connection pin. In some examples, the number of connection contacts on the first connector 210 can be the same as the number of connection pins on the second connector 110, i.e., N = M, and N is set to an odd number. Of course, N > M can also be made, which is not limited here.
[0304] For example, the (N+1) / 2nd connection point is configured to be connected to the ground terminal GND, the Mth connection point is configured to be connected to the camera power supply voltage VCC, and the first connection point Q1 and the (M+1) / 2nd connection point are configured to be connected to the ground terminal GND, making the first connection point Q1 and the (M+1) / 2nd connection point essentially in a conductive state. After the (M+1) / 2nd connection point is conductive to the ground terminal GND, the first connection point Q1 is also essentially conductive to the ground terminal GND. Furthermore, the (N+1) / 2nd connection pin is connected to the ground terminal GND, and the second connection pin P2 to the (N-1) / 2nd connection pin and the (N+3) / 2nd connection pin to the (N-1)th connection pin are connected to the image data transmission terminal. Furthermore, the connection pins of the image data transmission terminals with the same performance among the second connection pin P2 to the (N-1) / 2 connection pin and the (N+3) / 2 connection pin to the (N-1) connection pin are arranged in a mirror-symmetrical manner with respect to the (N+1) / 2 connection pin. Of course, the image data captured by the camera can also be transmitted via wireless communication technology. The camera module 200 may also include a first wireless communication component, through which the camera module 200 can send the captured image data. Further, the display device 100 also includes a second wireless communication component. The display device 100 interacts with the first communication component via the second wireless communication component to obtain the image data sent by the first communication component.
[0305] In some examples, the second contact point Q2 to the (M-1) / 2nd contact point are configured to connect to the image data transmission end, and the (M+3) / 2nd to the (N-1)th contact points are configured to connect to the image data transmission end. For example, as... Figure 18 As shown, taking N=M=5 as an example, the first contact point Q1 and the third contact point Q3 are configured to be connected to the ground terminal GND, making the first contact point Q1 and the third contact point Q3 essentially conductive. Furthermore, after the third contact point Q3 is conductive to the ground terminal GND, the first contact point Q1 is also effectively conductive to the ground terminal GND. The fifth contact point Q5 is configured to connect to the camera power supply voltage VCC, and the second contact point Q2 and the fourth contact point Q4 are configured to connect to the image data transmission terminal. Optionally, the image data transmission terminal includes: a first differential signal transmission terminal D+ and a second differential signal transmission terminal D-. The second contact point Q2 is configured to connect to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and the third contact point Q3 is configured to connect to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-.
[0306] And, as Figure 19aAs shown, when the camera module 200 is mounted on the display device 100 in the forward direction, the first contact point Q1 is mounted to the first connection pin P1, the second contact point Q2 is mounted to the second connection pin P2, the third contact point Q3 is mounted to the third connection pin P3, the fourth contact point Q4 is mounted to the fourth connection pin P4, and the fifth contact point Q5 is mounted to the fifth connection pin P5.
[0307] like Figure 19b As shown, when the camera module 200 is mounted in reverse onto the display device 100, the first contact point Q1 is mounted to the fifth connection pin P5, the second contact point Q2 is mounted to the fourth connection pin P4, the third contact point Q3 is mounted to the third connection pin P3, the fourth contact point Q4 is mounted to the second connection pin P2, and the fifth contact point Q5 is mounted to the first connection pin P1.
[0308] In this embodiment, the detection control circuit 300 includes a logic controller 310 and a selection circuit 320. The selection circuit 320 is connected to the logic controller 310, the (a+M-1)th connection pin, and the (b)th connection pin. The logic controller 310 is configured to acquire a camera detection signal, and when it determines that the camera detection signal is a positive access detection signal, output a first mode configuration signal and a voltage output enable signal. The selection circuit 320 is configured to receive the first mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, and in response to the first mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the (a+M-1)th connection pin. For example, as shown... Figure 19a As shown, the selector circuit 320 is configured to receive a first mode configuration signal and a voltage output enable signal, and in response to the first mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, to provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the fifth connection pin P5.
[0309] For example, the selection circuit 320 includes a second switching circuit. The second switching circuit is connected to the logic controller 310 and the a+M-1 connection pin, respectively, and is configured to receive a voltage output enable signal and, in response to the voltage output enable signal, provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the a+M-1 connection pin. For example, as... Figure 19a As shown, the second switching circuit is configured to receive a voltage output enable signal and, in response to the voltage output enable signal, supply the camera power supply voltage VCC to the fifth connection pin P5.
[0310] For example, the control terminal of the second switching circuit is used to receive a voltage output enable signal and a voltage output disable signal. Its first terminal is used to receive the camera power supply voltage VCC, and its second terminal is connected to the a+M-1th connection pin. Specifically, the second switching circuit is turned on under the control of the voltage output enable signal, providing the camera power supply voltage VCC to the a+M-1th connection pin. And, the second switching circuit is turned off under the control of the voltage output disable signal, disconnecting the camera power supply voltage VCC from the a+M-1th connection pin. Optionally, the second switching circuit includes, but is not limited to, a transistor, a triode, a digital switch, or an analog switch.
[0311] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the logic controller 310 is configured to output a second mode configuration signal and a voltage output enable signal when it is determined that the camera detection signal is a reverse access detection signal. The selection circuit 320 is configured to receive the second mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, and in response to the second mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, to provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the b-th connection pin. Exemplarily, as... Figure 19b As shown, the selection circuit 320 is configured to receive a first mode configuration signal and a voltage output enable signal, and in response to the first mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, to provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the first connection pin P1.
[0312] For example, the selection circuit 320 includes a third switching circuit. This third switching circuit is connected to both the logic controller 310 and the b-th connection pin, and is configured to receive a voltage output enable signal and, in response to the voltage output enable signal, provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the b-th connection pin. For example, as... Figure 19b As shown, the third switching circuit is configured to receive a voltage output enable signal and, in response to the voltage output enable signal, supply the camera power supply voltage VCC to the first connection pin P1.
[0313] For example, the control terminal of the third switching circuit is used to receive a voltage output enable signal and a voltage output disable signal. Its first terminal is used to receive the camera power supply voltage VCC, and its second terminal is connected to the b-th connection pin. The third switching circuit is turned on under the control of the voltage output enable signal, providing the camera power supply voltage VCC to the b-th connection pin. And, the third switching circuit is turned off under the control of the voltage output disable signal, disconnecting the camera power supply voltage VCC from the b-th connection pin. Optionally, the third switching circuit includes, but is not limited to, a transistor, a digital switch, or an analog switch.
[0314] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the logic controller 310 is configured to output a third mode configuration signal and a voltage output disable signal when it is determined that the camera detection signal is an undetected signal. The selection circuit 320 is configured to receive the third mode configuration signal and the voltage output disable signal, and in response to the third mode configuration signal and the voltage output disable signal, disconnect the camera power supply voltage VCC from the b-th connection pin. Exemplarily, as... Figure 19a and Figure 19b As shown, the select-on circuit 320 is configured to receive a third mode configuration signal and a voltage output disable signal, and in response to the third mode configuration signal and the voltage output disable signal, disconnects the camera power supply voltage VCC from the first connection pin P1 and the fifth connection pin P5.
[0315] Exemplarily, the second switching circuit is configured to receive a voltage output disable signal and, in response to the voltage output disable signal, disconnect the camera power supply voltage VCC from the a+M-1 connection pin. Similarly, the third switching circuit is configured to receive a voltage output disable signal and, in response to the voltage output disable signal, disconnect the camera power supply voltage VCC from the b connection pin. Exemplarily, as... Figure 19a As shown, the second switching circuit is configured to receive a voltage output disable signal, and in response to the voltage output disable signal, disconnect the camera power supply voltage VCC from the fifth connection pin P5. Figure 19b As shown, the third switching circuit is configured to receive a voltage output disable signal and, in response to the voltage output disable signal, disconnect the camera power supply voltage VCC from the first connection pin P1.
[0316] In this embodiment, the selection circuit 320 further includes a multiplexer 321; the multiplexer 321 is connected to the logic controller 310, the (a+1)th connection pin to the (N-1) / 2nd connection pin, and the (N+3) / 2nd connection pin to the (N-1)th connection pin, respectively. Furthermore, the multiplexer 321 is configured to receive a first mode configuration signal, and in response to the first mode configuration signal, connect the (a+1)th connection pin to the (N-1) / 2nd connection pin and the (N+3) / 2nd connection pin to the (N-1)th connection pin to the image data transmission terminal. For example, as... Figure 19a As shown, the image data transmission terminal includes: a first differential signal transmission terminal D+ and a second differential signal transmission terminal D-; the multiplexer 321 can respond to the first mode configuration signal by connecting the second connection pin P2 to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+ and connecting the fourth connection pin P4 to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-.
[0317] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the multiplexer 321 is configured to receive a second mode configuration signal, and in response to the second mode configuration signal, connect the (a+1)th connection pin to the (N-1) / 2nd connection pin and the (N+3) / 2nd connection pin to the (N-1)th connection pin to the image data transmission terminal. For example, as... Figure 19b As shown, the image data transmission terminal includes: a first differential signal transmission terminal D+ and a second differential signal transmission terminal D-; the multiplexer 321 can respond to the second mode configuration signal by connecting the second connection pin P2 to the second differential signal transmission terminal D- and connecting the fourth connection pin P4 to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+.
[0318] In addition, the multiplexer 321 also receives a third mode configuration signal, and in response to the third mode configuration signal, disconnects the connection pins from the a+1th connection pin to the (N-1) / 2th connection pin and the connection pins from the (N+3) / 2th connection pin to the N-1th connection pin from the image data transmission terminal.
[0319] In this embodiment, the display device 100 further includes a fourth pull-up resistor R4 and a fifth pull-up resistor R5; the fourth pull-up voltage VP4 is connected to the a+M-1th connection pin through the fourth pull-up resistor R4, and the fifth pull-up voltage VP5 is connected to the bth connection pin through the fifth pull-up resistor R5. The logic controller 310 is further configured to acquire the pin level signal of the a+M-1th connection pin and the pin level signal of the bth connection pin, and use the pin level signal of the a+M-1th connection pin and the pin level signal of the bth connection pin as camera detection signals. For example, as... Figure 18 As shown, the fourth pull-up voltage VP4 is connected to the fifth connection pin P5 through the fourth pull-up resistor R4, and the fifth pull-up voltage VP5 is connected to the first connection pin P1 through the fifth pull-up resistor R5. The logic controller 310 is also configured to acquire the pin level signal of the first connection pin and the pin level signal of the fifth connection pin, and use the pin level signals of the first connection pin and the fifth connection pin as camera detection signals.
[0320] For example, the resistance values of the fourth pull-up resistor R4 and the fifth pull-up resistor R5 can be the same or different, and this is not limited here.
[0321] For example, the fourth pull-up voltage VP4 and the fifth pull-up voltage VP5 may be the same or different, and this is not limited here.
[0322] For example, the fourth pull-up voltage VP4 and the fifth pull-up voltage VP5 can be input through the same pull-up voltage terminal, or they can be input through two independent pull-up voltage terminals respectively, without limitation.
[0323] For example, such as Figure 18As shown, when the camera module 200 is not connected to the display device 100, the fourth pull-up voltage VP4 is connected to the fifth connection pin P5 through the fourth pull-up resistor R4, and the fifth pull-up voltage VP5 is connected to the first connection pin P1 through the fifth pull-up resistor R5. When the camera module 200 is not connected to the display device 100, the first connection pin P1 is pulled up to a high level through the fifth pull-up voltage VP5, and the fifth connection pin P5 is pulled up to a high level through the fourth pull-up voltage VP4. At this time, the level signals of the first connection pin P1 and the fifth connection pin P5 obtained by the logic controller 310 are both high level signals. Since the obtained level signals of the first connection pin P1 and the fifth connection pin P5 are used as the camera presence detection signal, it can be said that the camera presence detection signal at this time is the no-connection detection signal.
[0324] For example, such as Figure 19a As shown, when the camera module 200 is mounted to the display device 100 in the forward direction, the fifth connection pin P5 is pulled up to a high level through the fourth pull-up voltage VP4. The first connection pin P1 is connected to the ground terminal GND through the first connection contact Q1, the third connection contact Q3 and the third connection pin P3, so that the first connection pin P1 is pulled down by the ground terminal GND. At this time, the logic controller 310 obtains a low level signal for the first connection pin P1 and a high level signal for the fifth connection pin P5. Since the obtained level signals of the first connection pin P1 and the fifth connection pin P5 are used as the camera presence detection signal, it can be said that the camera presence detection signal at this time is a forward access detection signal.
[0325] For example, such as Figure 19b As shown, when the camera module 200 is installed in reverse onto the display device 100, the first connection pin P1 is pulled up to a high level through the fifth pull-up voltage VP5. The fifth connection pin P5 is connected to the ground terminal GND through the first connection contact Q1, the third connection contact Q3, and the third connection pin P3, so that the fifth connection pin P5 is pulled down by the ground terminal GND. At this time, the logic controller 310 obtains a high level signal for the first connection pin P1 and a low level signal for the fifth connection pin P5. Since the obtained level signals of the first connection pin P1 and the fifth connection pin P5 are used as the camera presence detection signal, it can be said that the camera presence detection signal at this time is a reverse access detection signal.
[0326] The following is combined Figures 18 to 19b The working process of the electronic device provided in the embodiments of this disclosure is described.
[0327] When the camera is not connected to the display device 100, the logic controller 310 outputs a third mode configuration signal and a voltage output disable signal. In response to the voltage output disable signal, the second switching circuit disconnects the camera power supply voltage VCC from the fifth connection pin P5. The third switching circuit, in response to the voltage output disable signal, disconnects the camera power supply voltage VCC from the first connection pin P1. The multiplexer 321, with its third mode configuration signal, disconnects the second connection pin P2 and the fourth connection pin P4 from the second differential signal transmission terminal D- and the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, respectively.
[0328] The camera module 200 is mounted face-up on the display device 100. The logic controller 310 outputs a first mode configuration signal, and outputs a voltage enable signal to the second switching circuit and a voltage disable signal to the third switching circuit. In response to the voltage enable signal, the second switching circuit provides the camera power supply voltage VCC to the fifth connection pin P5. In response to the voltage disable signal, the third switching circuit disconnects the camera power supply voltage VCC from the first connection pin P1. The multiplexer 321, with the first mode configuration signal, connects the second connection pin P2 to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and connects the fourth connection pin P4 to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-.
[0329] The camera module 200 is mounted in reverse to the display device 100. The logic controller 310 outputs a second mode configuration signal, and outputs a voltage enable signal to the third switching circuit and a voltage disable signal to the second switching circuit. In response to the voltage disable signal, the second switching circuit disconnects the camera power supply voltage VCC from the fifth connection pin P5. In response to the voltage enable signal, the third switching circuit provides the camera power supply voltage VCC to the first connection pin P1. The multiplexer 321, with its second mode configuration signal, connects the fourth connection pin P4 to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and connects the second connection pin P2 to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-.

[0335] In this embodiment, the detection control circuit 300 includes a logic controller 310 and a selection circuit 320. The selection circuit 320 is connected to the logic controller 310 and the first connection pin P1 to the Nth connection pin. The logic controller 310 is configured to acquire a camera detection signal, and when it determines that the camera detection signal is a positive access detection signal, output a first mode configuration signal and a voltage output enable signal. The selection circuit 320 is configured to receive the first mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, and in response to the first mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the (N+1) / 2th connection pin, and connect the ath connection pin to the ground terminal GND. For example, as shown... Figure 21a As shown, the selection circuit 320 is configured to receive a first mode configuration signal and a voltage output enable signal. In response to the first mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, it provides the camera power supply voltage VCC to the third connection pin P3 and connects the first connection pin P1 to the ground terminal GND.
[0336] For example, the selection circuit 320 includes a fourth switching circuit 324. The fourth switching circuit 324 is connected to the logic controller 310 and the a-th connection pin, respectively, and is configured to receive a voltage output enable signal, and in response to the voltage output enable signal, connect the a-th connection pin to ground (GND). For example, as... Figure 21a As shown, the fourth switch circuit 324 is configured to receive a voltage output enable signal and, in response to the voltage output enable signal, connect the first connection pin P1 to the ground terminal GND.
[0337] For example, the control terminal of the fourth switching circuit is used to receive a voltage output enable signal and a voltage output disable signal. Its first terminal is connected to the ground terminal GND, and its second terminal is connected to the a-th connection pin. Specifically, the fourth switching circuit is turned on under the control of the voltage output enable signal, connecting the a-th connection pin to the ground terminal GND. And, the fourth switching circuit is turned off under the control of the voltage output disable signal, disconnecting the a-th connection pin from the ground terminal GND. Optionally, the fourth switching circuit includes, but is not limited to, a transistor, a triode, a digital switch, or an analog switch.
[0338] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the logic controller 310 is configured to output a second mode configuration signal and a voltage output enable signal when it is determined that the camera detection signal is a reverse access detection signal. The selection circuit 320 is configured to receive the second mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, and in response to the second mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, to provide the camera power supply voltage VCC to the (N+1) / 2th connection pin, and to connect the b+M-1th connection pin to the ground terminal GND. Exemplarily, as... Figure 21bAs shown, the selection circuit 320 is configured to receive a second mode configuration signal and a voltage output enable signal. In response to the second mode configuration signal and the voltage output enable signal, it provides the camera power supply voltage VCC to the third connection pin P3 and connects the fifth connection pin P5 to the ground terminal GND.
[0339] For example, the selection circuit 320 includes a fifth switching circuit 325. The fifth switching circuit 325 is connected to the logic controller 310 and the b+M-1 connection pin, respectively, and is configured to receive a voltage output enable signal and, in response to the voltage output enable signal, connect the b+M-1 connection pin to ground (GND). For example, as... Figure 21b As shown, the fifth switch circuit 325 is configured to receive a voltage output enable signal and, in response to the voltage output enable signal, connect the fifth connection pin P5 to the ground terminal GND.
[0340] For example, the control terminal of the fifth switching circuit is used to receive a voltage output enable signal and a voltage output disable signal. Its first terminal is connected to the ground terminal GND, and its second terminal is connected to the b+M-1th connection pin. Specifically, the fifth switching circuit is turned on under the control of the voltage output enable signal, connecting the b+M-1th connection pin to the ground terminal GND. Conversely, the fifth switching circuit is turned off under the control of the voltage output disable signal, disconnecting the b+M-1th connection pin from the ground terminal GND. Optionally, the fifth switching circuit may include, but is not limited to, a transistor, a triode, a digital switch, or an analog switch.
[0341] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the logic controller 310 is configured to output a third mode configuration signal and a voltage output disable signal when it is determined that the camera detection signal is not detected. The selection circuit 320 is configured to receive the third mode configuration signal and the voltage output disable signal, and in response to the third mode configuration signal and the voltage output disable signal, disconnect the camera power supply voltage VCC from the (N+1) / 2th connection pin, disconnect the b+M-1th connection pin from the ground terminal GND, and disconnect the ath connection pin from the ground terminal GND. Exemplarily, as... Figure 21a and Figure 21b As shown, the selection circuit 320 is configured to receive a third mode configuration signal and a voltage output disable signal. In response to the third mode configuration signal and the voltage output disable signal, the camera power supply voltage VCC is connected to the third connection pin P3, the fifth connection pin P5 is disconnected from the ground terminal GND, and the first connection pin P1 is disconnected from the ground terminal GND.
[0342] Exemplarily, the fourth switching circuit 324 is configured to receive a voltage output disable signal and, in response to the voltage output disable signal, disconnect the a-th connection pin from the ground terminal GND. Similarly, the fifth switching circuit 325 is configured to receive a voltage output disable signal and, in response to the voltage output disable signal, disconnect the b+M-1-th connection pin from the ground terminal GND. Exemplarily, as... Figure 21a As shown, the fourth switch circuit 324 is configured to receive a voltage output disable signal, and in response to the voltage output disable signal, disconnects the first connection pin P1 from the ground terminal GND. Figure 21b As shown, the fifth switch circuit 325 is configured to receive a voltage output disable signal and, in response to the voltage output disable signal, disconnect the fifth connection pin P5 from the ground terminal GND.
[0343] In this embodiment, the display device 100 further includes a sixth pull-up resistor R6 and a seventh pull-up resistor R7; the sixth pull-up voltage VP6 is connected to the a-th connection pin through the sixth pull-up resistor R6, and the seventh pull-up voltage VP7 is connected to the b+M-1-th connection pin through the seventh pull-up resistor R7. The logic controller 310 is further configured to acquire the pin level signal of the a-th connection pin and the pin level signal of the b+M-1-th connection pin, and use the pin level signal of the a-th connection pin and the pin level signal of the b+M-1-th connection pin as camera detection signals.
[0344] For example, such as Figure 20 As shown, when the camera module 200 is not connected to the display device 100, the sixth pull-up voltage VP6 is connected to the fifth connection pin P5 through the sixth pull-up resistor R6, and the seventh pull-up voltage VP7 is connected to the first connection pin P1 through the seventh pull-up resistor R7. When the camera module 200 is not connected to the display device 100, the first connection pin P1 is pulled up to a high level through the seventh pull-up voltage VP7, and the fifth connection pin P5 is pulled up to a high level through the sixth pull-up voltage VP6. At this time, the logic controller 310 obtains both the level signals of the first connection pin P1 and the level signals of the fifth connection pin P5 as high-level signals. Since the obtained level signals of the first connection pin P1 and the level signals of the fifth connection pin P5 are used as the camera presence detection signal, it can be concluded that the camera presence detection signal at this time is the no-connection detection signal.
[0345] For example, such as Figure 21aAs shown, when the camera module 200 is mounted to the display device 100 in the forward direction, the fifth connection pin P5 is pulled up to a high level through the sixth pull-up voltage VP6, and the first connection pin P1 is pulled down through the first connection contact Q1. At this time, the logic controller 310 obtains a low level signal for the first connection pin P1 and a high level signal for the fifth connection pin P5. Since the obtained level signals of the first connection pin P1 and the fifth connection pin P5 are used as the camera presence detection signal, it can be said that the camera presence detection signal at this time is a forward access detection signal.
[0346] For example, such as Figure 21b As shown, when the camera module 200 is installed in reverse onto the display device 100, the first connection pin P1 is pulled up to a high level through the seventh pull-up voltage VP7, and the fifth connection pin P5 is pulled down through the first connection contact Q1. At this time, the logic controller 310 obtains a high-level signal for the first connection pin P1 and a low-level signal for the fifth connection pin P5. Since the obtained level signals of the first connection pin P1 and the fifth connection pin P5 are used as the camera presence detection signal, it can be said that the camera presence detection signal at this time is a reverse access detection signal.
[0347] The following is combined Figures 20 to 21b The working process of the electronic device provided in the embodiments of this disclosure is described.
[0348] When the camera is not connected to the display device 100, the logic controller 310 outputs a third mode configuration signal and a voltage output disable signal. In response to the voltage output disable signal, the fifth switch circuit 325 disconnects the ground terminal GND from the fifth connection pin P5. In response to the voltage output disable signal, the fourth switch circuit 324 disconnects the ground terminal GND from the first connection pin P1. The multiplexer 321, in response to the third mode configuration signal, disconnects the second connection pin P2 and the fourth connection pin P4 from the second differential signal transmission terminal D- and the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, respectively.
[0349] The camera module 200 is mounted face-up on the display device 100. The logic controller 310 outputs a first mode configuration signal, and outputs a voltage output enable signal to the fourth switch circuit 324 and a voltage output disable signal to the fifth switch circuit 325. In response to the voltage output enable signal, the fourth switch circuit 324 connects the ground terminal GND to the first connection pin P1. In response to the voltage output disable signal, the fifth switch circuit 325 disconnects the ground terminal GND from the fifth connection pin P5. The multiplexer 321, receiving the first mode configuration signal, connects the second connection pin P2 to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+, and connects the fourth connection pin P4 to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-.
[0350] The camera module 200 is mounted in reverse to the display device 100. The logic controller 310 outputs a second mode configuration signal and outputs a voltage output enable signal to the fifth switching circuit 325 and a voltage output disable signal to the fourth switching circuit 324. In response to the voltage output disable signal, the fourth switching circuit 324 connects its ground terminal GND to the fifth connection pin P5. In response to the voltage output enable signal, the fourth switching circuit 324 disconnects its ground terminal GND from the first connection pin P1. The multiplexer 321, receiving the second mode configuration signal, connects the fourth connection pin P4 to the first differential signal transmission terminal D+ and connects the second connection pin P2 to the second differential signal transmission terminal D-.

For example, the (N+1) / 2nd connection pin can be connected to the ground terminal GND, and the first connection pin P1 and the Nth connection pin can be connected to the camera power supply voltage VCC.

Alternatively, the image data acquired by the camera can also be transmitted via wireless communication technology.
