For this mode of operation, the ExpressCard adapter board is used in conjunction with the XIO3130 EVM
board. This adapter board utilizes the TI TPS2231 power interface switch to switch power on and off to the
ExpressCard slot. TI also offers a dual-power interface switch called the TPS2236.

Figure 1-8

adapter board.
