Technical Field

[0002] NVIDIA, short for Nvidia Corporation, is a leading global manufacturer of graphics processing units (GPUs), whose products are widely used in gaming, artificial intelligence, data centers, and other fields. However, many current motherboards suffer from incompatibility with NVIDIA, posing numerous challenges and drawbacks for users and developers.
[0003] Incompatible carrier boards with NVIDIA core boards may cause system instability. Due to incompatibility between drivers and hardware, users may experience frequent crashes, blue screens, or unresponsive systems. These problems not only affect normal user operation but may also lead to data loss and system corruption.
[0004] Incompatible carrier boards limit the utilization of high-performance GPUs. NVIDIA GPUs are renowned for their exceptional computing and graphics processing capabilities, but on incompatible carrier boards, these capabilities may not be fully realized. This means users may not be able to enjoy the latest graphics technologies and optimizations, thus impacting the overall user experience.
[0005] Incompatibility issues can also lead to wasted hardware resources. Some motherboards may be equipped with high-performance NVIDIA GPUs, but due to driver incompatibility, these hardware resources may not be fully utilized. This not only increases the user's hardware costs but may also lead to a decrease in overall system performance. Utility Model Content

[0036] Figure 3 This is a circuit diagram of the USB switch circuit in the carrier board of this utility model, which is compatible with the NVIDIA core board. Figure 3 As shown, the USB switch circuit includes: pin 10 of USB switch chip U11 is connected to one end of resistor R450, the other end of resistor R450 is grounded; pin 1 of USB switch chip U11 is connected to one end of resistor R451; pin 2 of USB switch chip U11 is connected to one end of resistor R452; pin 7 of USB switch chip U11 is connected to one end of resistor R453; pin 6 of USB switch chip U11 is connected to one end of resistor R454; pin 8 of USB switch chip U11 is connected to one end of resistor R95, the other end of resistor R95 is grounded; and the other end of resistor R451 is connected to the other ends of resistors R452, R453, and R454 respectively.
[0037] In practical implementation, the USB switch chip U11 can be, but is not limited to, the TS3USB30E. The TS3USB30E is a high-bandwidth 1:2 switch chip with a wide bandwidth of 900MHz, resulting in extremely low edge and phase distortion during signal transmission. Its working principle is to multiplex the differential output of a USB host device to one of two corresponding outputs, or to multiplex the differential outputs of two different hosts to one corresponding output. This bidirectional switch provides almost no attenuation to high-speed signals at the output, thus ensuring high-quality signal transmission.
[0038] Furthermore, the TS3USB30E chip features low bit-to-bit skew and high channel-to-channel noise isolation, making it compatible with various standards such as high-speed USB 2.0 (480Mbps). The chip integrates ESD protection units on all pins and is available in a miniature UQFN package (1.8mm × 1.4mm) or VSSOP package, enhancing its reliability and durability. Its rated operating temperature range is -40°C to 85°C, meeting the application requirements in various environments.
[0039] The USB switching circuit controls the power supply to the USB interface by controlling the on / off state of a switching element. When a USB device is connected to the core board, the switching circuit detects the device's insertion status and turns the power on or off as needed. Furthermore, the USB switching circuit also enables hot-swapping of the USB interface, automatically switching the power state when a device is connected or disconnected to protect the core board from transient voltage or current surges.
[0040] The USB interface on the NVIDIA core board needs to support high-speed data transfer and power management. Therefore, the USB switching circuitry needs to have fast response and low power consumption to ensure stable data transfer and effective power management. Good compatibility with the NVIDIA core board can be achieved by selecting appropriate switching components and optimizing the circuit design.

[0042] The camera serial interface connector circuit is used to connect external camera devices to enable the transmission of image data and the exchange of control signals.
[0043] Camera serial interface connector circuits typically employ serial communication protocols such as UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver / Transmitter) or SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface). UART transmits data by sending and receiving data frames, while SPI uses clock and data signals for synchronous communication. The camera serial interface connector circuit is responsible for converting signals from external camera devices into a signal format recognizable by the core board and transmitting data and control signals to the core board via the serial communication interface.
[0044] NVIDIA core boards typically support a variety of image processing and video encoding / decoding functions.

[0046] The DC debounce soft-start circuit is used to achieve unidirectional conductivity and protect the core board from reverse voltage and current surges.
[0047] The DC debounce soft-start circuit features forward conduction and reverse cutoff. When a forward voltage is applied to the diode, the diode conducts, allowing current to flow; when a reverse voltage is applied to the diode, the diode cuts off, blocking the current. This characteristic is utilized to limit reverse voltage and current within safe limits, thereby protecting the core board from damage.

As a crucial component of circuit protection, the DC debouncing soft-start circuit needs to possess characteristics of fast response and low loss. By selecting appropriate diode components and optimizing the circuit design, good compatibility with NVIDIA core boards can be achieved, providing effective circuit protection.
