Network hub interconnection circuitry having power reset feature

摘要

A circuit for interconnecting electrical components in a stacked arrangement through the use of connector elements. The circuit includes reset circuitry for automatically resetting the power-up sequence of the electrical components in the stack to allow the components to be powered up in any desired sequence. The circuit can also include identification circuitry for generating a unique identifier for each component in the stack and termination circuitry for selectively establishing terminal connections between the first and last components in the stack.
