UNIVERSAL MEMORY SOCKET AND CARD AND SYSTEM FOR USING THE SAME

摘要

A memory circuit card is described, where the electrical and physical interface between the circuit card and a motherboard bus is independent of the memory type installed on the circuit card. The power supply voltage provided by the mother board is independent of the memory type, and persistent and non-persistent memory types may be used on a plurality of circuit cards installed on the motherboard. The power status of at least portions of the interfaces of the circuit card may be controlled at a future time based on signals received at an input of circuit card.
