Below, on the 2nd page, I put a picture of something that has been bugging me. It's basically the CMOS chip used in WIFI and Modems. All our Internet browsing passes right thru there. All of it. (By the way: CMOS technology is used for constructing integrated circuit (IC) chips).
It basically explains a "no voltage" "zone" where it will IGNORE the inputs (so they say).
It also explains that the errors are for older devices and that a "fix" has been mentioned. BUT it seems to me that if the fix "resistor" is put in place, that the problem is fixed, right?
Then, why do we have a 2 Volts (!?) used as a safety buffer. I'm really not an engineer or a full fledged technician, at all, but in my experience, that is a HECK of a lot of voltage used for noise?...
On top of that, they say that they DOUBLED the voltage to be sure there is no error. Read the paper, or go to the website for the full description: https://www.allaboutcircuits.com/textbook/digital/chpt-3/logic-signal-voltage-levels/
When I studied DC Voltage at JAC, I had a book (1991 or 1992 I believe) for that class. I remember staring at a pin out for a modem. It had the voltage input, connecting to the world thru the phone line. And this is something that bugged me. It had a voltage input to the modem... BUT the first .6V or .7V, it wrote: "Not available" (or something along those lines). WHY did they remove that voltage. Or did I misread the spec sheet, OR was it just unavailable because of a Diode or something else?
Or is it because it was "noisy"? If it was so, then it makes NO sense at all, because a LOW voltage is a LOW voltage, you just "IGNORE (((???)))" it, right? That means that 2V would be PLENTY to do "whatever" they want.
IN ANY CASE, if you want to check it out it was a 1991 or 1992 DC Voltage book at JAC, with really good graphics (at the time). I have it (I think) but I cant find it. I will eventually dig some stuff up and hopefully get it.
Could it be a way that they found to infiltrate the insides of our PCs? Or am I just thinking too much? Well I don't think too much actually, I just that I add 1 + 1 = 2 (or -2 actually, you get to see all the "errors" they do).
But it could be that a Diode would prevent the lecture of the voltage? Maybe or maybe not, but they seem to read it no problem in the page below.
It's something to check out. Again, I am not a tech. I am just thinking aloud. Maybe someone will correct me if I am wrong(?)
Here is what I've got on HDMI... Hint: Pin # >14<
When I started my course at JAC, I started with the Logic Circuit class. We started to learn codes and I kinda look at my sheets and I discovered... Well, the error I found in the books was this:
When you convert Analog to Digital, we all make the mistake of calling the low signal "0" and the hi signal "1" in the signal conversion. Well THAT IS AN >>ERROR<<!!!
What happens when you build a number in digital form? You start with 0, then go to 1, then to 2, etc. You just made an "out of the ordinary" error that's kinda hard to explain...
When you have you binary sheet in front of you, ALL that it can say is 0 and 1. THAT IS WRONG. You should have another digit than 0 and 1. It's very misleading. Invent a language and put it up. "0" and "1" are totally false. THERE IS NO "0" OR "1", they DON'T EVEN EXIST in electricity. Only in Digital, and the should be BANNED.
THE CORRECT "SYMBOLS" should go from "L" all the way to "H". That's it!
You should add a third one too if you wish. Lets call it "M" for mid. AND if you want to push it, you could for "VL" for very low, and "VH" for very hi. So it would look like this:
AND put a "1 Pin" >>DIGITAL<< (5 levels [or more, or even "analog" if you will] for 1 pin) on the chips.
For all this time, for something as COLOSSAL AS >>>DIGITAL ELECTRONICS<<< The thing that has become our life, we don't even realize that there's something wrong with it??? You don't even realize this >>>flagrant<<< mistake, right in front of you??? And it's been here for how many decades???
We do not even think for a second, that "0" and the "1" is normal... Forget the "0" and "1". It shouldn't even exist. That way you don't mess around with students and with peoples minds.
Actually, I don't know if there's anybody left to talk to, I mean it's passed, the people are gone by now, but the message is out there if someone wants to start the processes of putting this in action...
DO THE CHANGE!!!
OK...
Here is the main difference between ANALOG vs. DIGITAL:
With USB keys becoming much more capable (USB keys are extremely big, at the time I am writing this), it is time that EVERY companies put SECURITY in the forefront. Not simply a SOFTWARE solution, because it just a matter of time before they find a way to "unlock" it. I mean a PHYSICAL SWITCH on the key. THAT would greatly reduce the risk of loosing the data (from enormous amount of loss).
AND this is where I am not too sure if today's security is really secure, or not. In the power supplies, you should have DIODES (circuit) stuck at the output. The reason why I think that, is to always have the diodes protecting the circuit. A diode completely eliminates the power supply from going up or down. It "fixes" the power at a certain voltage. That way you have a perfect output. Now I'm not sure if diodes are completely protecting the output or not, but it is something I would check. Lets make the DIODE circuit SEPARATE from the Chip.
And something to put everywhere data lines are present in computers (and others)... Why don't we put the Diodes EVERYWHERE there are communications. a voltage that cannot go higher and cannot go lower than the rated voltage.
That way, the cost is SOOOOOO minuscule (less that 1 penny per chip) that it will be done and you move on to something else. It will be part of the design (or copy and paste), that's it.
