For example, if the first device is described as being coupled (or connected) to the second device, it should be construed that the first device can be directly connected to the second device, or the first device can be A connection means is indirectly connected to the second device. In addition, wherever possible, the elements and/ Elements/components/steps that use the same reference numbers or use the same terms in different embodiments may refer to the related description.

圖1是依據本發明一實施例所繪示的散熱系統100的電路方塊(circuit block)示意圖。請參照圖1,散熱系統100可以包括電子裝置110以及散熱裝置120。在不同的實施例中,電子裝置110例如是筆記型電腦、智慧型手機、平板電腦、桌上型電腦或其他電子產品。 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a circuit block of a heat dissipation system 100 according to an embodiment of the invention. Referring to FIG. 1 , the heat dissipation system 100 can include an electronic device 110 and a heat dissipation device 120 . In various embodiments, the electronic device 110 is, for example, a notebook computer, a smart phone, a tablet computer, a desktop computer, or other electronic product.

散熱裝置120的操作模式包括散熱模式和遠端控制模式。在一些實施例中,散熱裝置120可以提供使用者介面(未繪示),使得使用者可以選擇/設定散熱裝置120的操作模式。或者,在另一些實施例中,藉由偵測電子裝置110是否與散熱裝置120耦接,散熱裝置120的操作模式可以被自動設定。以電子裝置110為筆記型電腦為例,散熱裝置120例如可以藉由熱插拔偵測(Hot Plug Detection,HPD)方法來判定是否與電子裝置110(筆記型電腦)連接。舉例來說,在散熱裝置120的電路板中設置一根偵測接腳 (pin),而此偵測接腳的預設準位是邏輯高準位。因此,於電子裝置110與散熱裝置120分離時,散熱裝置120可以檢測到此偵測接腳的電位是邏輯高準位。當電子裝置110與散熱裝置120耦合在一起時,散熱裝置120的此偵測接腳的電位被電子裝置110下拉至邏輯低準位。因此,當散熱裝置120檢測到此偵測接腳的電位是邏輯低準位時,散熱裝置120可以判定已經與電子裝置110相連接。必須注意的是,本發明並不限制電子裝置110與散熱裝置120耦合狀態的偵測電路結構與偵測技術種類。 The operation modes of the heat sink 120 include a heat dissipation mode and a remote control mode.

For example, a detection pin is disposed in the circuit board of the heat sink 120. (pin), and the preset level of the detection pin is a logic high level. Therefore, when the electronic device 110 is separated from the heat sink 120, the heat sink 120 can detect that the potential of the detecting pin is a logic high level. When the electronic device 110 is coupled to the heat sink 120, the potential of the detecting pin of the heat sink 120 is pulled down by the electronic device 110 to a logic low level.

For example, the heat sink 120 can generate a wind flow to remove heat from the surface or interior of the electronic device 110 to lower the temperature of the electronic device 110. When the heat sink 120 is received in the internal space of the electronic device 110, the electronic device 110 may perform a charging operation on the heat sink 120.
