Embodiment
Power Supply Monitoring guard method of the present invention is applied on the following power supply monitoring and protecting system, and this system comprises a control module, and it is monitoring voltage at any time; An and output/input unit; it learns this magnitude of voltage by this control module, judges whether this magnitude of voltage surpasses a set standard voltage value, when this magnitude of voltage surpasses the magnitude of voltage of this set standard; with being about to power-off, to reach the effect of effective monitoring and protection.The control module of this power supply monitoring and protecting system also includes a change-over circuit, and this change-over circuit is imported this voltage.And this change-over circuit can be one mould/digital converter (analog to digital converter; A/Dconverter), this control module can be a keyboard controller (Kevboar Controller), and this output/input unit can be a basic input/output (basic Input output system; BIOS), the voltage of monitoring is system voltage and CPU voltage, and system voltage can be 3V voltage or 5V voltage, and CPU voltage can be core (core) voltage or I/O (I/O) voltage.
Fig. 1 is the arrangement plan of power supply monitoring and protecting system of the present invention.As shown in the figure, control module is the associated voltage of monitoring and display system or CPU at any time, and I/O unit is learnt magnitude of voltage by control module, when surpassing the magnitude of voltage of set standard, with being about to power-off.
Control module can be a keyboard controller (Keyboard Controller) 40, between passage and input/output device, includes data buffer and logical circuit, and control data shifts and peripherals work.Keyboard controller 40 has a change-over circuit 50, and change-over circuit can be an A/D converter (analog to digital converter; A/D converter), with this voltage via A/D converter input and show this magnitude of voltage.
This voltage can be system voltage or CPU voltage.As shown in the figure, A/D converter input system 3V voltage 21, system 5V voltage 23, core cpu (core) voltage 25 and CPU I/O (I/O) voltage 27.
The I/O list can not be (the basic Inputoutput system of a keyboard basic input/output; BIOS) 30, the operation interface of system is provided; The transfer of data and steering order between promotion system and its peripherals makes operating system be fit to the user.
Keyboard basic input/output BIOS 30 learns magnitude of voltage by keyboard controller 40, judges whether magnitude of voltage surpasses a set standard voltage value, when magnitude of voltage surpasses the magnitude of voltage of set standard, closes with being about to system power supply switch 29.
Fig. 2 is the workflow calcspar of Power Supply Monitoring guard method of the present invention.As shown in Figure 2,
At first, in step S11, system boot, the protection of beginning Power Supply Monitoring.
At step S12, keyboard basic input/output BIOS 30 imports associated voltage by the A/D converter of keyboard controller 40 again.
Then, at step S13, show each magnitude of voltage by keyboard controller 40.Among the step S14, keyboard basic input/output BIOS 30 judges by the keyboard controller 40 resulting magnitudes of voltage of monitoring at any time whether the magnitude of voltage of the 3V of system voltage, 5V voltage is correct.
