Abstract
An interface card includes a circuit board, a device mounted on the circuit board, and a PMIC mounted on the circuit board. The PMIC includes a PMIC processor communicatively coupled to a host processor of a host system. The PMIC processor is configured to receive an input voltage signal from a power supply that is external to the interface card. The PMIC processor generates at least one output voltage signal based on the input voltage signal. The at least one output voltage signal is supplied to the device. A power enable signal originating from the host processor is detected. The power enable signal is detected at a GPIO connector of the PMIC. The PMIC processor deactivates generation of the at least one output voltage signal based on the power enable signal.
