  • Data processing system with separable system units
    Patent number: 5930517
    Abstract: The invention relates to a data processing system with a first 1 and a second system unit 2, with a data transfer connector 4 provides a connection between the first and the second system unit, where the first system unit comprises an energy storage device 10 as a power supply and a monitor for monitoring a state of charge 11 of the energy storage device. The monitor is adapted to initialize the disconnection of the connection between the first and the second system unit when the state of charge falls below a threshold value.
