Patent ID: 8550824

Claim:
A display card assembly, comprising: a straight through connector; a display card comprising: a first circuit board; a plurality of first storage chips arranged on the first circuit board; a control chip arranged on the first circuit board and connected to the first storage chips, to control the first storage chips to store data according to a received control signal; a first edge connector set on a bottom edge of the first circuit board to engage in an expansion slot of a motherboard, the first edge connector comprising a plurality of first power pins connected to the control chip and the first storage chips for transmitting voltages to the control chip and the first storage chips, a plurality of first ground pins, and a plurality of signal pins connected to the control chip; and a second edge connector arranged on an end of the first circuit board adjoining the bottom edge and electrically connected to the straight through connector, the second edge connector comprising a plurality of second power pins connected to the first power pins, a plurality of second ground pins, and a plurality of second signal pins connected to the control chip for receiving control signals from the control chip; and an expansion card comprising: a second circuit board; a plurality of second storage chips arranged on the second circuit board; and a third edge connector arranged on an end edge of the second circuit board to engage in the straight through connector, the third edge connector comprising a plurality of third power pins, a plurality of third ground pins, and a plurality of third signal pins, wherein the third power pins and the third signal pins are connected to the second storage chips for transmitting voltages and control signals to the second storage chips; wherein when the motherboard receives power, the motherboard outputs voltages to the control chip and the first storage chips through the expansion slot and the first power pins, the voltage output from the motherboard is provided to the second storage chips through the second power pins, the straight through connector, and the third power pins, the motherboard outputs a control signal to the control chip through the expansion slot and the first signal pins, the control chip controls the first storage chips to store data, and also controls the second storage chips to store data through the second signal pins, the straight through connector, and the third signal pins.
