ABSTRACT:
A printed circuit card having first and second circuit units mounted thereon in connection to terminal pads adjacent two card edges, with the first and second circuit units being in connection to each other and to select pads of a first edge such that upon insertion of that edge into a given card socket, both circuit units are enabled, and the circuit units also being in connection to the pads of a second edge such that upon insertion of that edge into a second card socket, only the second circuit unit is enabled. In the preferred embodiment, the card is a memory module card having buffer and memory circuit units designed to cooperate with each other and with either of standard, buffered or unbuffered memory card sockets in a system board in accordance with insertion of a first or second pad edge in one of the card sockets to automatically provide, either combined circuit unit operation, or single circuit operation. The invention is also applicable to clocked register circuits and series pass devices.
