ABSTRACT:
A computer includes a multi-bit analog-to-digital converter, which is mounted within the computer's housing and has a digital output operatively connected to a bus port of the computer's processor. The computer also includes a local passive identification network that has a first node operatively connected to an analog input of the converter and further nodes respectively electrically connected to pins of a multi-contact local interface connector. A passive peripheral device identification network including a plurality of nodes each electrically connected to a multi-contact peripheral identification connector can mate with the multi-contact local connector.
