Connection device with electrostatic discharge protection
First Claim
1. A connection device with electrostatic discharge protection, comprising:
- a first interface comprising a plurality of signal pins for electrically connecting to a first electronic device;
a second interface comprising a plurality of signal pins for electrically connecting to a second electronic device, wherein the plurality of signal pins of the second interface correspond to the plurality of signal pins of the first interface;
a driving circuit coupled to a first signal pin of the plurality of signal pins of the first interface, configured to generate a control signal according to whether a signal is present on the first signal pin; and
a switch circuit coupled to the first interface, the second interface, and the driving circuit, being controlled by the driving circuit to control a conduction situation between the plurality of signal pins of the first interface and the plurality of signal pins of the second interface, wherein the switch circuit comprises a plurality of relays, and each relay corresponding to a signal pin of the first interface and a signal pin of the second interface is utilized for controlling a conduction situation between the signal pin of the first interface and the signal pin of the second interface according to the control signal generated by the driving circuit.
