Abstract

See full text

A modular portable device system and method improves the quality of the interface between a core device and an add-on module via an interconnection system specifically applicable to modular systems. A multi-pin connector array accessible from outside the base device is configured and located to electrically connect to a mating array on the add-on module when the two devices are docked. The application processor of the base device uses different pins or pin sets of the interface to provide mutually exclusive data channels having distinct data rates for transmission of various types of data with less waste. In an embodiment, a control pin is used by the devices to signal a channel and associated data type to be transmitted.
