Abstract:
1. A computer system, comprising: a plurality of power suppliers; and a plurality of mainboards, each of which is electrically connected to the corresponding one of the power suppliers, wherein each power supplier provides power to each corresponding mainboard, and each of the mainboards comprises: a switch module for generating a switch-on signal; a control module for receiving the switch-on signal and generating a power enable signal according to the switch-on signal; and a cascade module, electrically connected to the power supplier relative to the mainboard and the control module, for receiving the power enable signal; wherein, the cascade module of the respective mainboard electrically connects to the other cascade modules, and, when the control module of any mainboard sends out the power enable signal, the power enable signal is transferred via the cascade module of the mainboard to the cascade modules of the other mainboards, and thus the cascade modules of all the mainboards synchronously transfer the power enable signal to the corresponding power supplier, so that the power suppliers provide power to the corresponding mainboard to implement the mainboard's booting synchronously.
