Abstract
A multi-functional electronic card with multi-I/O interface has a plurality of interface ports for connecting to a host, at least one functional deivce, and a multi-interface and multi-functional controller. When an interface port is inserted into the host, other interface ports are off-line automatically. The multi-interface and multi-functional controller is connected to a multi-I/O interface and the functional devices for selecting one functional device. Signals of the multi-I/O interface are converted into signals of the selected functional device so that the host can assess the selected functional device.
