Further illustrate, the stitch that forms the first voltage 111a in the present embodiment in the first power supply slot 110 is coupled to the positive 12 voltaism potential source jacks of second source slot 120, that is ought connect the first power supply slot 110 by the first power supply unit 111, or second source supply 121 is when connecting second source slot 120 and computer installation and being open state, all has the first voltage 111a.In addition, when the second source supply 121 that meets ATX standard is electrically connected second source slot 120, and when computer installation is holding state, second switch control signal control conducting second switch 320, make standby voltage source 150 be coupled to second source control input end 142 to receive the second standby voltage 121a, that is the standby 5 voltaism potential source outputs of ATX, for answering computer installation under holding state, in motherboard 100, still need the power supply of the parts of operation.
When second source supply 121 is electrically connected second source slot 120, and computer installation is open state while exporting the first standby voltage 132a, first switch control signal control conducting the first switch 310, make standby voltage source 150 be coupled to the first power supply control input end 141 to receive the first standby voltage 132a, that is now the positive 12 voltaism potential sources of ATX are output as the first voltage 111a, and be converted to the voltage source of 5 volts through voltage conversion circuit 130.This holding state and open state of sentencing computer installation is according to the object of switching, be that the power supply deliverability of 5 volts of standbies is less than 5 voltaism potential source outputs of voltage conversion circuit 130, but computer installation is under open state, the running status of each electronic component is comparatively frequent, even operating frequency also increases with multiple according to design, thereby cause the rising of power consumption, the 5 voltaism potential source outputs that now change the voltage conversion circuit 130 larger with power supply deliverability are powered, and can guarantee the stability of computer installation in operation.
Connect the first power supply slot 110 and work as the first power supply unit 111, and when second source supply 121 does not connect second source slot 120, external power supply circuit for detecting 340 is exported the 3rd switch control signal in its output terminal 341, to control conducting the 3rd switch 330, make standby voltage source 150 be coupled to the first power supply control input end 141 to receive the first standby voltage 132a, that is battery or AC/DC power converter positive 12 volts or positive 19 voltaism potential sources are output as the first voltage 111a now, and be converted to the voltage source of 5 volts through voltage conversion circuit 130.Because this voltage source of 5 volts has enough power supply deliverabilities, therefore can the power supply during in holding state or open state at computer installation, and needn't switch.
From above-mentioned explanation, the disclosed motherboard 100 of the present invention required positive 5 volts of power supplys in the time of system normal running, not directly from second source supply 121, but change the first voltage 111a and obtain via voltage conversion circuit 130.
Fig. 4 discloses the schematic diagram of the signal generating circuit 400 of the first switch control signal in the power control unit 140 of an embodiment and second switch control signal for the present invention.Signal generating circuit 400 comprises the first field-effect transistor 410, the second field-effect transistor 420, comparer 460 and bleeder circuit 470.The first field-effect transistor 410 is a N-type metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor, in order to realize the first switch 310 in Fig. 3.The second field-effect transistor 420 is a P type metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor, in order to realize the second switch 320 in Fig. 3.
