ABSTRACT:
A computer system having a power supply, a backplane board and a system board includes a power supply shutdown apparatus. When an interlock pin disposed on an edge connector of the system board is not seated properly in a corresponding interlock-pin-receptacle forming a portion of a system board socket disposed on the backplane board, a shutdown circuit is actuated to produce a shutdown signal which is used for electrically isolating the power supply from the system board.
