A computing system may include a base portion to receive one or more first batteries, and a tablet portion having one or more electronic components and the tablet portion to receive one or more second batteries. The tablet portion may be configured to be coupled to and detached from the base portion. The computing system may also include circuitry to control a supply of voltage to one or more electronic components of the tablet portion from one or more first batteries at the base portion and from one or more second batteries at the tablet portion.

Detachable computing system having bi-directional power flow

Embodiments of the invention describe a motherboard PCB having a memory bus to receive signal data from a channel of memory chips/devices of a memory module. Electrical contacts, communicatively coupled to the memory bus, securely couple the PCB to the memory chips/devices of the memory module. Embodiments of the invention further include a receiving housing that includes said electrical contacts and has a height less or equal to the height of the memory module. Embodiments of the invention further describe a memory module having a memory card housing, first and second pluralities of memory chips/devices included in the housing, and first and second pluralities of memory module electrical EO terminals for coupling the first and second pluralities of memory chips/devices to PCB, respectively. In embodiments of the invention, the above described first and second pluralities electrical EO connectors are disposed on different sides of the housing.

Multi-channel memory module

Electronic device

Particular embodiments described herein provide for an electronic device, such as a notebook computer or laptop, that includes a circuit board coupled to a plurality of electronic components (which includes any type of components, elements, circuitry, etc.). One particular example implementation of the electronic device may include means for establishing a first electrical connection between a first base and a lid portion; and means for establishing a second electrical connection between a second base and the lid portion. The lid portion is removably coupled to a selected one of the first base and the second base.

Modular electronic device system with a detachable display

Electronic display device

The invention includes a peripheral charging system for a computer. The peripheral charging system comprises a retention mechanism configured to retain a peripheral having a battery, the retention mechanism comprising a charging mechanism, and a system battery electrically connected to the charging mechanism. When the peripheral is retained by the retention mechanism, the peripheral contacts the charging mechanism of the retention mechanism to charge the peripheral battery. The invention also comprises a method for charging a peripheral for a mobile computing device. The method comprises retaining the peripheral in a retention mechanism of the mobile computing device, and charging a battery of the peripheral device from a battery of the mobile computing device. The retention mechanism of the mobile computing device includes a charging mechanism configured to supply charge to a charging mechanism of the peripheral.

Method and device for charging peripherals

A device and system are disclosed. In one embodiment the device comprises a primary display unit, a base unit coupled to the primary display unit, and a touch-sensitive secondary display unit, coupled to the base unit, operable to receive input from a user and display information for the user.
