INTERCHANGEABLE POWER AND SIGNAL CONTACTS FOR IO CONNECTORS |
摘要 |
Systems and methods of interconnecting devices may include an input/output (IO) connector assembly having a voltage regulator, one or more signaling circuits, a first set of contacts, a second set of contacts connected to the one or more signaling circuits, and logic to receive a configuration command. The logic may also connect the first set of contacts to the voltage regulator if the configuration command corresponds to a first protocol. If the configuration command corresponds to a second protocol, on the other hand, the logic can connect the first set of contacts to the one or more signaling circuits. |

1. A system comprising:
a host device including host logic to issue a configuration command; a power supply; and an input/output (IO) connector assembly having a voltage regulator connected to the power supply, one or more signaling circuits, a first set of contacts, a second set of contacts connected to the one or more signaling circuits, and connector logic to,
receive a configuration command,connect the first set of contacts to the voltage regulator if the configuration command corresponds to a first protocol, andconnect the first set of contacts to the one or more signaling circuits if the configuration command corresponds to a second protocol. |
