  • Hot swap processor card and bus
    Patent number: 6591324
    Abstract: A processor card has a connector for plugging into a processor slot, signal switching circuitry electrically connected to the connector, power switching circuitry for controlling power to the processor card and a processor electrically connected to the signal switching circuitry. The power switching circuitry allows power to be selectively delivered to the processor card, and the signal switching circuitry enables the processor card to be hot swapped in and out of a PCI hot swap bus. The processor card works in conjunction with a similar processor card on the bus to perform the hot swap procedure.
