Abstract
This document describes apparatuses, systems, and techniques directed to a modular system validation platform for computing devices. The modular system validation platform includes an interface board for interfacing a host with a peripheral. The interface board includes an apparatus identifier, a first connector configured to couple to the host, and a second connector configured to couple to the peripheral. The interface board comprises interface circuitry that can be reconfigured to enable different peripherals to operate with the host using the same interface board. The interface circuitry enables the interoperability between the host and the peripheral by distributing power from the host to the peripheral and facilitating communications between the host and the peripheral. By using the reconfigurable interface board to test and troubleshoot the interoperability of the processor and the peripheral, resources, time and costs spent during the design and testing phases of computing devices may be minimized.
