摘要： A battery powered disk drive system for a portable computer comprises a disk drive unit, a cable, and a smart connector. The smart connector includes a disk drive controller integrated circuit, a printed circuit board, and an exterior plastic molding. The exterior plastic molding has an upper edge portion which butts against a display section of the portable computer when in use. Since the disk controller is physically located on the outside of a housing of the portable computer, the size of the portable computer is minimized. High frequency signals are converted to low frequency signals by the disk controller and, since the smart connector is located physically close to the computer, electromagnetic interference is minimized.

摘要翻译： 用于便携式计算机的电池供电的磁盘驱动器系统包括盘驱动单元，电缆和智能连接器。 智能连接器包括磁盘驱动器控制器集成电路，印刷电路板和外部塑料模制件。 外部塑料模制件在使用时具有与便携式计算机的显示部分相对的上边缘部分。 由于磁盘控制器物理地位于便携式计算机的壳体的外部，所以便携式计算机的尺寸被最小化。 高频信号由磁盘控制器转换为低频信号，并且由于智能连接器物理上靠近计算机，电磁干扰被最小化。
