Abstract
A motherboard with a switching function has a substrate, a chipset, a control signal generator, an on-board device, an extension slot, and a switching circuit module. The switching circuit module disposed on the substrate has a first terminal connected to the chipset for receiving a input signal from the chipset, a second terminal for receiving a control signal from the control signal generator, a first output circuit connected to the first on-board device, and a second output circuit connected to the first extension slot. The control signal determines a turned on state of the first switch output circuit and the second output circuit.
