Piece, as TI companies use 2 PMU chips, when PMU units use more PMU chips, each PMU chips are needed using different
I2C bus address, so, exist in the prior art, PMU chip integrations are not high, and multiple PMU cores are used in power-supply management system
Piece, when realizing the control to multiple PMU chips, bus functionality is single, the technical problem that need to be adjusted when can only carry out.
In addition, conventionally, as PMU units use a PMU core for being integrated with cpu power managing chip function
During piece, when CPU updates, the cpu power management module in PMU chips will lose effect, then whole PMU chips
It is eliminated, that is to say, that exist in the prior art when PMU units are using the PMU chips for being integrated with cpu power managing chip
When, PMU units can not compatible more technical problems for CPU platforms.
Further, in the PMU chip applications by cpu power managing chip is integrated with electric power management circuit, and to electricity
When road plate carries out fabric swatch cabling, because the position of cpu power administrative unit and PMU units on circuit boards is concentrated, electricity is added
The difficulty of road plate fabric swatch cabling, so, exist in the prior art, cpu power managing chip is integrated in PMU chips and is caused to circuit
The increased technical problem of difficulty of plate placement-and-routing.
Further, since use two PMU chips of IT companies encapsulate for QFN in the prior art, and package dimension is
The PMU chips that 8mm*8mm, Rohm company use are similarly QFN encapsulation and package dimension is 10mm*10mm, so prior art
In also have that the PMU chips that are used in power-supply management system encapsulate for QFN and package dimension is big, cause whole power circuit fabric swatch
The big technical problem of area.

Embodiment one
Fig. 2 is refer to, the embodiment of the present application provides a kind of power-supply management system, applied to just like notebook computer, flat
In the portable electronic equipment such as plate computer, the electronic equipment has a power supply adaptor 100, and the electronic equipment bag
A battery is included, is specifically as follows a rechargeable battery, the system includes:
One charging management chip 101, model can be MAX1645B, MAX1908 etc., can be with the power supply adaptor
100 connections;
One cpu power managing chip 102, model can be ADP3198, ADP3188 etc., with the charging management chip

During specific implementation, when the electronic equipment is not using power supply adaptor power supply, and battery electric quantity fills
When sufficient, cpu power pipe can be made directly by cpu power managing chip and PMU chip power supplies that battery is electronic equipment internal
It is suitable supply voltage that chip and PMU chips, which are managed, by the voltage conversion of battery, thinks that the power consuming device of electronic equipment internal supplies
Electricity.
The power supply source of people's daily life is generally civil power, and different national line voltages is also different, global civil power electricity
It is pressed between 110V~240V, and the line voltage in China is then 220V, so high voltage is not suitable for electronic equipment,
And the effect of power supply adaptor is exactly the voltage that civil power is converted to relatively low suitable electronic equipment and used.Power supply adaptor is small
The power supply conversion equipment of type portable electric appts, is typically made up of shell, power transformer and rectification circuit, defeated by its
Exchange output type and direct-current-output type can be divided into by going out type;It can be divided into Direct Plug-In and Table top type by connected mode.With notebook electricity
Exemplified by brain, the power supply adaptor of most notebook computers can be suitable for 100V~240V alternating currents(50/60Hz), notebook
The power supply adaptor of computer is according to the difference of model, and for the voltage of output between 16V~20V, 19V and 20V situation are in the majority.Electricity
Transformer and rectification circuit in source adapter, civil power is converted to the low-voltage DC of suitable computer work.
By taking notebook computer as an example, its internal device has corresponding operating voltage requirements according to its different function.
For example, the nominal charging voltage of battery is 11V~19V;The input voltage of charging management chip typically in below 30V, here with
Exemplified by model MAX1908 charging management chip, input voltage during its normal work is between 8V-25V, maximum input electricity
Press as 28V, civil power is converted to the first relatively low output voltage and exported to charging management chip by power supply adaptor, so that charging valve
Managing chip being capable of normal work;Again because cpu power managing chip is according to its own model, also should mutually there is its suitable normal work
Voltage requirements, specifically, by taking model ADP3198 cpu power managing chip as an example, the input voltage that it is supported is 12V,
The first output voltage that charging management chip exports power supply adaptor is converted to the work electricity of suitable cpu power managing chip
Pressure, such as 12V, the first output voltage is converted to the voltage of suitable electronic equipment CPU work by cpu power managing chip, and is
It is powered.Such as present notebook computer uses Intel platforms more, and CPU uses Intel processor more, model ADP3198's
Cpu power managing chip can be converted to 12V electric power output voltage the core supply voltage needed for Intel processor.Together
