  • Abstract
    PCMCIA cards are used to add a variety of features to portable computers-modems, LANs, GPS, etc. Some means of switching power to the inserted PCMCIA card is required: this paper describes the design and process technology for a second-generation, single-chip, dual-slot PCMCIA power interface switch
