AI Thread Summary
A PCIe cable system for board-to-board connections is discussed, with Molex's iPass cabling system mentioned as a potential solution. However, the Molex system is noted to be more of a custom solution due to its specific pin configuration, which does not allow for compatibility with standard PCIe x8 cards or slots. Users express interest in alternative solutions, particularly for laptops. The conversation highlights the need for adaptable PCIe cabling options for various applications. Overall, the thread emphasizes the limitations of existing solutions for standard PCIe connections.

Is there a PCIe cable system available that attaches to a standard PCIe Board Edge Connector or Mother Board PCIe slot?

I see Molex has the iPass cabling system for PCIe board to board connections. But based on the Molex connection pinning (68pins for x8 PCIe) it is more of a custom solution and cannot be adapted to connect to an existing standard PCIe x8 Card/Slot.

Hi,

Did you figure out?
I found some solution for laptop only.
I'm interesting in the solution you got.

Thread '3-terminal device external modeling'

Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...

Thread 'Question about the voltage between two charged capacitors'

suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
