As shown in fig. 1, the backup power supply includes: a power input/output control module 101, a charge/discharge management module 102, and an energy storage medium 103.
Specifically, the power input/output control module 101 includes a first port 1011, a second port 1012 and an input voltage collecting module 104, wherein the first port 1011 is connected to an external device.
The input voltage collecting module 104 is disposed between the second port 1012 and the charging and discharging management module 102, and is configured to collect an input voltage for charging the energy storage medium, and transmit the collected input voltage to the charging and discharging management module 102.
The charging and discharging management module 102 is configured to determine whether the server has a power failure based on the input voltage, perform an electric power storage operation on an energy storage medium when it is determined that the server has not a power failure, perform a discharging operation on an external device through the energy storage medium when it is determined that the server has a power failure, and use the first power supply as a first power supply terminal of the server. Namely, when the server is powered off, the first power supply is powered off.
The energy storage medium 103 is connected with a charge and discharge management module.
The energy storage medium 103 is specifically a super capacitor, a hybrid capacitor or other battery energy storage media, and when the number of capacitors is large, a plurality of capacitors can be connected in series or in parallel. The charging and discharging management module 102 is used for carrying out voltage-sharing charging on the series capacitor, so that the capacitor can be protected, and the service life of the capacitor is prolonged.
The external device is specifically an NVDIMM (nonvolatile dual in-line memory module) or other devices needing continuous power supply, and when the NVDIMM receives power supply of a server and the server is powered down, the backup power supply of the NVDIMM is needed to be used for supplying power to the server.
In an optional implementation manner, when determining that the server is not powered down, the charging and discharging management module 102 controls the first port 1011 and the second port 1012 thereof to be in a conducting state, so that the first power source stores power to the energy storage medium 103 through the external device and the first port 1011, the external device is connected to the first power source, and the first power source is a first power supply end of the server.
When the charging and discharging management module 102 determines that the server is powered off (i.e. the first power supply is powered off and cannot store power for the energy storage medium 103), the first port 1011 and the second port 1012 are controlled to be kept in a conducting state, so that the energy storage medium 103 discharges for the external device through the lines of the second port 1012 and the first port 1011.
When the server is not powered down, the current flows from the first port 1011 to the second port 1012. When the server is powered down, the current flows from the second port 1012 to the first port 1011.

The first power is provided by the DIMM interface of the server, which is used to supply power to the external device and then to the energy storage medium 103 through the external device.
When the external device is powered by the backup power supply of the external device, the following application scenarios are specific.
In a first application scenario, as shown in fig. 2, when the server is not powered down, the third port 1013 and the second port 1012 are in an on state, the first port 1011 and the second port 1012 are in an off state, and the second power supply stores power to the energy storage medium 103 through the third port 1013.
At this time, if the server loses power, the charging and discharging management module 102 controls the third port 1013 and the second port 1012 to be switched from the on state to the off state, and the first port 1011 and the second port 1012 to be switched from the off state to the on state, so that the energy storage medium 103 discharges to the external device through the line between the second port 1012 and the first port 1011. And then the backup power supply of the external equipment is switched from a charging state to a discharging state, so that the external equipment is ensured not to be powered down, and the stored data of the external equipment is not lost.
In a second scenario, as shown in fig. 3, when the server is not powered down, the first port 1011 and the second port 1012 are in an on state, the third port 1013 and the second port 1012 are in an off state, and the first power source stores power to the energy storage medium 103 through the external device and the first port 1011.
At this time, if the server is powered down, the charge/discharge management module 102 controls the first port 1011 and the second port 1012 to be kept in an on state, and controls the third port 1013 and the second port 1012 to be kept in an off state. The energy storage medium 103 discharges the external device through the second port 1012 and the first port 1011 to ensure that the external device is not powered off, so that the stored data in the external device is not lost. And further realizing the switching of the backup power supply from the charging state to the discharging state.
In a third scenario, as shown in fig. 4, when the server is not powered down, the first port 1011 and the second port 1012 are in a conducting state, and the third port 1013 and the second port 1012 are in a conducting state, the first power source stores power to the energy storage medium 103 through the external device and the first port 1011, and the second power source stores power to the energy storage medium 103 through the third port 1013.
At this time, if the server is not powered down, the charging and discharging management module 102 controls the first port 1011 and the second port 1012 to be kept in a conducting state, and controls the third port 1013 and the second port 1012 to be in a disconnecting state, so that the energy storage medium 103 is discharged to the external device through the line between the second port 1012 and the first port 1011. And then the backup power supply is switched from a charging state to a discharging state, so that the external equipment is ensured not to be powered down, and the stored data of the external equipment is not lost.
In an alternative embodiment, a first isolation circuit is connected between the third port 1013 and the first port 1011, and a second isolation circuit is connected between the first port 1011 and the second port 1012.
The first isolation circuit and the second isolation circuit may be switching devices such as field effect transistors (MOSFETs) to achieve isolation of the charging and discharging lines.
In an alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 5, the charging and discharging management module 102 determines whether the server is powered down based on the input voltage.
The specific judgment process is as follows:
the charging and discharging management module 102 compares the input voltage with a preset voltage, determines that the server is powered off when the input voltage is less than the preset voltage, and determines that the server is not powered off when the input voltage is greater than or equal to the preset voltage. At this time, when it is determined that the server is powered down, the charging and discharging management module 102 conducts the first port 1011 and the second port 1012 to supply power to the external device through the energy storage medium 103.
In an alternative embodiment, the backup power supply further comprises: the output voltage acquisition circuit 105 is disposed between the second port 1012 and the charge and discharge management module 102, and is configured to acquire an output voltage between the first port 1011 and the second port 1012 and transmit the acquired output voltage to the charge and discharge management module 102, so that the charge and discharge management module 102 monitors the output voltage.
When the charging and discharging management module 102 monitors that the output voltage is lower than the power supply voltage required by the external device, the output voltage needs to be boosted.
In an alternative embodiment, the backup power supply further comprises: and a voltage boosting circuit 107, which is provided between the second port 1012 and the charge/discharge management module 102, and is configured to boost an output voltage between the first port 1011 and the second port 1012 to boost a voltage output from the power input/output control module 101 to an external device.
In an alternative embodiment, the backup power supply further comprises: and a voltage reduction circuit 106, disposed between the second port 1012 and the charging and discharging management module 102, for performing voltage reduction processing on the input voltage, where the input voltage includes a voltage input from the power input/output control module 101 to the charging and discharging management module 102.
Because the energy storage medium 103 is a super capacitor, and the voltage bearing capability of the super capacitor is lower than the input voltage of the second power supply and/or the input voltage of the first power supply, when the energy storage medium 103 is charged, a voltage reduction circuit needs to be used to reduce the input voltage, so as to realize charging. When the energy storage medium 103 is discharged, the power supply voltage required by the external device is greater than the output voltage of the energy storage medium 103, so that when the energy storage medium 103 is discharged, the output voltage is boosted by using the boost circuit to realize the discharge.
The voltage step-down circuit 106 and the voltage step-up circuit 107 may be Buck/Boost. The power supply mainly comprises a power field effect transistor, an inductor and a controller.
