Abstract

See full text

An information handling system main board CMOS is powered by a CMOS battery, such as to keep a real time clock during a power off state, with the battery ground passed through a ground pad so that ground to the CMOS is incomplete until a coupling device, such as a screw, couples the main board to an information handling system housing. A bi-stable relay couples to the main board between the CMOS battery positive terminal and the CMOS to prevent application of power by the CMOS battery to the CMOS after closing of the ground until an embedded controller that is powered on the main board commands closing of the bi-stable relay.
