Abstract
An electronic device with a card reading function includes a chip, a memory card slot, a card reading device, and a capacitor. The memory card slot receives a memory card. The card reader device is coupled to the chip through a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) interface and receives at least one of a first PCIe signal, an Ultra High Speed type II (UHS-II) Secure Digital (SD) card signal, and a legacy SD card signal, the UHS-II SD card signal including a DC component and an AC component. The capacitor establishes the PCIe interface. The card reading device includes a bridge card reader circuit for converting the legacy SD card signal or the UHS-II SD card signal into a second PCIe signal transmitted through the PCIe interface.
