The Type C interface has a power supply pin, see V in FIG. 4BUSPins, but VBUSThe power transmitted by the pin is small, and the pin cannot be applied to the situation that high power is needed, so that the DC pin is arranged in the second group of connecting parts of the first transmission interface to adapt to the situation of high-power electric energy transmission.
For example, the processing device may be connected to an external power line, and the display device may obtain power through an interface with the processing device, so as to operate the display device, thereby implementing a display function and an expansion function. In addition, according to the size of the charging power required by the wireless charging module, the power supply pins with different powers can be used for transmitting the electric energy, for example, in the case of charging with high power, the DC pin can be used for transmitting the electric energy.

In the related art, when a user starts a processing device, the user needs to press a boot button on the processing device, and since the processing device is located in a slot on a side surface or a back surface of a display, the user is inconvenient to operate when the processing device is started, and thus the display device of the embodiment of the disclosure provides a mode for operating on the display device to control the boot of the processing device.
The power on/off module may include, for example, a power on/off button, which may be disposed on the display device, and the power on/off button may receive a power-on instruction of a user, where the power-on instruction may trigger the display device to be turned on, and at the same time, the display device may further send a power-on signal (also referred to as a power button signal) to a connection interface with the processing device, and the processing device that receives the power-on signal may trigger a power-on operation to implement one-key power on. Similarly, the power on/off module can also realize the one-key power off operation of the display device and the processing device. In addition, a power on/off button for turning on and off the processing device alone may be provided on the display device. Based on the mode, the user can conveniently carry out the starting operation of the processing equipment.
