Above-mentioned design and manufacturing process provide many advantages.At first, design and manufacturing cost have been reduced by the basic device standardization that makes power system.Do not need just can reach cost-effective purpose to the major part redesign of power system.Secondly, by making the flow process standardization of manufacturing, can finish regularly better and more stable quality control with less variation between tested person and the in check different product line.The 3rd, by all flow processs are cut apart two key steps, i.e. the cable of basic standard basic device and client decision can provide the design of power supply device and make preferable elasticity so that the demand of customer in response is done preferable response.This is because the design of cable and manufacturing are general than being easier to and can making in the short period of time.Infraction in the technological process that in known flow process, in the demand of the power supply unit that determines for the client compatible, often meets with different types of computer framework, thereby can solve by the present invention.
The present invention discloses a kind of novelty and non-obvious system architecture and method for designing so that provide modularization that the PC power system uses and integrated cable interface.Modularization that disclose in this place and integrated cable interface may be comparatively obvious in the design of other electronic product and manufacturing field, yet belong to novel and non-obviously in the power system field that PC is used, and it be the reasons are as follows.
At first, modularization and integrated cable interface are mainly to consider as running is flexible in the design in many electronic product fields with in making, promptly in many subsystems and the design in the operational devices, the simplicity that connects and disassemble, by general use.This interface structure is to establish for downstream user's (end user) interests.On the contrary, be applied in the processing procedure so that reach in design and the elasticity in making as disclosed modularization and integrated interface structure.Specific group between other electronic product with the integrated and modular cable interface of the present invention is diverse and therefore has different purposes and demand.For a specific group such as downstream user may be known and obvious, but this technology is then really not so for another different groups such as power system deviser, because trend of using and potential interests are different fully.
