Figure 2 illustrates that various devices can talk to each other over the bus. For example, the central processing unit can monitor the voltage of the battery and the on/off of the power supply through the bus, and even read parameters such as the voltage, current, fan speed, and operating temperature of the power supply. Figure 3 shows the waveform timing diagram of the bus in Figure 2. In the bus, the data terminal DATA is used to carry data, and the clock terminal CLK is used to indicate the validity of the data (logic level V DH or V DL ) of the data terminal DATA. Because all devices connected to the bus can arbitrate the bus, the data terminal DATA and the clock terminal CLK are usually at a high level, and when the data terminal DATA and the clock terminal CLK are at a low level, it indicates that the bus is transmitting data.

For high current output and/or fault tolerance systems, parallel power supplies are required.

请参阅图10所示,是依照本发明说明输出单元250的较佳实施例。如图10所示,输出单元250包括输出电阻R4、单位增益放大器257以及由晶体管251与252所组成的输出电流镜。单位增益放大器257具有开集电极(或开漏极)的输出型态,其输出端连接至总线端(在此例如为数据端DATA)、用以产生总线信号VB。总线信号VB决定总线端的高逻辑信号的电压准位。单位增益放大器257的负端连接至其输出端,其正端经由输出电阻R4而耦接至拉升电压VM。晶体管252耦接至单位增益放大器257的正端。晶体管251接收第二电流信号I2。依照第二电流信号I2而在输出电阻R4上产生压降。因此,依照第二电流信号I2、输出电阻R4与拉升电压VM而产生总线信号VB。总线信号VB可以表示如方程式(3)。Please refer to FIG. 10 , which illustrates a preferred embodiment of the

其中,k3是晶体管251与252的电流镜比例。Wherein, k 3 is the current mirror ratio of transistors 251 and 252 .
请参照方程式(3),我们可以发现总线信号VB是依照电源供应器的输出电流IO而做调变。因为单位增益放大器257的输出端是开集电极(或开漏极)型式,因此单位增益放大器257只能拉低总线信号VB,因而总线端可以开联。在没有负载的情况下,总线信号VB的最高电压是由拉升电压VM所调节。Referring to equation (3), we can find that the bus signal V B is modulated according to the output current I O of the power supply. Because the output terminal of the unit gain amplifier 257 is an open collector (or open drain) type, the unit gain amplifier 257 can only pull down the bus signal V B , so the bus terminal can be disconnected. In the case of no load, the maximum voltage of the bus signal V B is regulated by the pull-up voltage V M .
请参阅图11所示,是依照本发明说明并联电源供应器350、360与370分摊输出电流的较佳实施例。如图11所示,通过总线端将各个电源供应器的总线信号VB进行耦接。每一个电源供应器各自具有输出电压VO1~VOn、输出电流IO1~IOn与输出阻抗RO1~ROn。具有最大的输出电流的电源供应器仲裁总线信号VB。仲裁总线信号VB的电源供应器被定义为主供应器,其他电源供应器即为辅助供应器,辅助供应器将追踪总线信号VB以分摊输出电流。辅助供应器的第三电流信号IX是依照方程式(1)所产生。偏移电压Voffset决定了起始的临界值。当总线信号VB的压降大于偏移电压Voffset时,辅助供应器将开始产生第三电流信号IX,并且与主供应器共同分摊输出电流。较低的总线信号VB将产生较高的第三电流信号IX。最后,辅助供应器将藉由增加其输出电压而达到分摊输出电流的目的。输出电压VO(例如VO1、VO2...VOB)是由参考信号VREF所决定。Please refer to FIG. 11 , which illustrates a preferred embodiment of parallel connection of power supplies 350 , 360 and 370 to share the output current according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 11 , the bus signal V B of each power supply is coupled through the bus terminal. Each power supply has an output voltage V O1 ˜V On , an output current I O1 ˜I On , and an output impedance R O1 ˜R On . The power supply with the largest output current arbitrates the bus signal V B . The power supply that arbitrates the bus signal V B is defined as the main power supply, and the other power supplies are the auxiliary supplies, and the auxiliary supplies will track the bus signal V B to share the output current. The third current signal I X of the auxiliary supplier is generated according to equation (1). The offset voltage V offset determines the initial threshold. When the voltage drop of the bus signal V B is greater than the offset voltage V offset , the auxiliary supplier will start to generate the third current signal I X and share the output current with the main supplier. A lower bus signal V B will generate a higher third current signal I X . Finally, the auxiliary supply will share the output current by increasing its output voltage. The output voltage V O (such as V O1 , V O2 . . . V OB ) is determined by the reference signal V REF .
其中,RA与RB分别是图4中电阻RA与RB的电阻值。Wherein, RA and RB are the resistance values of the resistors RA and RB in FIG. 4 , respectively.
方程式(2)显示藉由第三电流信号IX与第一电流信号I1而调整参考信号VREF,其中第一电流信号I1代表电源供应器的输出电流IO。当第三电流信号IX高于第一电流信号I1,则参考信号VREF增加。参考信号VREF的增加将导致输出电流IO的增加。最后,在增加其输出电流IO之后,参考信号VREF的增加将被收敛。通过总线端相互传送总线信号VB,辅助供应器的输出电流的增加将减少主供应器的输出电流。因此达到分摊输出电流的目的。总输出电流IO被所有电源供应器所分摊,其可以表示如下。Equation (2) shows that the reference signal V REF is adjusted by the third current signal I X and the first current signal I 1 , wherein the first current signal I 1 represents the output current I O of the power supply. When the third current signal I X is higher than the first current signal I 1 , the reference signal V REF increases. An increase in the reference signal V REF will result in an increase in the output current I O. Finally, after increasing its output current I O , the increase of the reference signal V REF will be converged. An increase in the output current of the auxiliary supply will reduce the output current of the main supply through the bus terminals communicating the bus signal V B . Therefore, the purpose of apportioning the output current is achieved. The total output current I O is shared by all power supplies, which can be expressed as follows.
其中ZO表示总输出负载。where Z O represents the total output load.
