Referring to fig. 2, an operation timing chart of the embodiment is shown, which illustrates the states of the voltage supplied by the power supply 96, the signal output by the programmable logic unit 7, the signal output by the platform path control unit 2, and the signal output by the open computing card 5 when the computer system is in different modes.
Referring to fig. 3 and 4, the computer system implements a first mode entering procedure of the method for providing power in the standby phase according to the present invention. The first mode entering procedure describes how to enter the first mode and the states of the signal outputted by the programmable logic unit 7, the signal outputted by the platform path control unit 2, and the signal outputted by the open computing card 5 in the first mode, and includes the following steps.
In step 401, when the bmc 1 detects that the computer system includes the open computing card 5, the bmc 1 transmits a detection notification signal to the programmable logic unit 7.
In step 402, when the detection notification signal is received by the programmable logic unit 7, the card signal (i.e., an OCP _ V3_ EN signal) related to the activation of the open operation card 5 is set to high level by the programmable logic unit 7 and sent to the hot-plug control unit 6 to enter the first mode.
In step 403, the platform path control unit 2 sets a status signal (i.e., a signal S3_ N) indicating whether the computer system enters the boot stage to a low level and sends the status signal to the programmable logic unit 7 to indicate that the computer system does not enter the boot stage.
In step 404, after the programmable logic unit 7 receives the status signal, the programmable logic unit 7 maintains a master enable signal (i.e., a MAIN _ PWR _ EN signal) associated with the enabling of a master power source at a low level and transmits the master enable signal to the open operation card 5 in response to the status signal being at a low level.
In step 405, the programmable logic unit 7 also maintains a supply signal (i.e., a MAIN _ PWR _ ON signal) indicating whether to supply the MAIN power at a low level in response to the status signal and transmits the supply signal to the second transformer 95, so that the second transformer 95 does not output voltage to the cpu 3 and the memory unit 4, and thus does not supply the MAIN power to the cpu 3 and the memory unit 4.
In step 406, while the computer system is in the first mode, the programmable logic unit 7 also maintains an enable main power signal (i.e., an AUX _ PSU _ EN signal) associated with enabling the main power source at a low level and sends the low level to the and gate 91.
In step 407, the AND gate 91 AND the enabled main power signal with low level AND a switching signal (i.e., an interrupt signal) indicating whether the cover of the server is opened or not are anded to obtain AND transmit a notification signal (i.e., a PS _ ON signal, at which the PS _ ON signal after the AND operation is low) indicating that the main power is not enabled to the power supply 96 AND the first switching unit 92, thereby disabling the main power (i.e., a main voltage Vpsu =0V provided by the power supply 96, see the dotted line part of fig. 3), AND enabling the first switching unit 92 to select a standby voltage Vsb =12V provided by the power supply 96 to be transmitted to the first transformer 94 AND the hot-plug control unit 6 to output voltages to the substrate management control unit 1, the platform path control unit 2, the programmable logic unit 7, the hot-plug control unit 6, AND the first switching unit 92, The hot-plug control unit 6 and the open computing card 5, and further supply the standby power to the bmc unit 1, the platform path control unit 2, the programmable logic unit 7, the hot-plug control unit 6 and the open computing card 5. It is worth to be particularly noted that, when the cover plate of the server is opened, the opening/closing signal is at a low level; when the cover plate of the server is closed, the opening/closing signal is at a high level.
In step 408, when the computer system is in the first mode, the programmable logic unit 7 further maintains an auxiliary power-on signal (i.e., an AUX _ PWR _ EN signal) associated with the power-on of the standby power at a low level and transmits the auxiliary power-on signal to the open computing card 5 and the second switching unit 93, so that the second switching unit 93 selectively disables the power supply 96 and the fan 8, thereby not providing power to the fan 8.
In step 409, after the open operation card 5 receives the auxiliary power-up signal, the open operation card 5 maintains an operation signal (i.e., a NIC _ PWR _ GOOD signal) indicating whether the power supplied to the open operation card 5 is stable at a low level and transmits the operation signal to the programmable logic unit 7 to indicate that the power supplied to the open operation card 5 is unstable.
It should be noted that the execution sequence of the steps 404 to 409 disclosed in this embodiment is only an example, and in practice, the execution sequence of the steps 404 to 409 can be adjusted or performed simultaneously according to the requirement.
Referring to fig. 5 and 6, the computer system implements a standby power supply procedure of the method for providing power in the standby phase according to the present invention. The standby power procedure describes how the power supply 96 provides sufficient power to the open computing card 5, and includes the following steps.
In step 501, when the computer system is in the first mode, the bmc unit 1 obtains card data associated with the open computing card 5, and determines whether the standby power provided by the power supply unit 9 is insufficient according to the card data. When the bmc 1 determines that the standby power is insufficient, the process proceeds to step 502; when the board management control unit 1 determines that the standby power is sufficient, the flow ends. In the present embodiment, the card data is stored in the field replaceable unit of the open computing card 5 and includes a power value indicating the power required by the open computing card 5. The bmc unit 1 obtains the card data by reading the card data stored in the field replaceable unit, and determines whether the standby power is insufficient by determining whether the power value in the card data is greater than a predetermined power threshold. When the bmc 1 determines that the power value is greater than the power threshold, it means that the standby power provided by the power supply unit 9 is insufficient; when the bmc 1 determines that the power value is not greater than the power threshold, it means that the standby power provided by the power supply unit 9 is sufficient.
It should be noted that if the bmc 1 determines that the standby power is sufficient, the computer system performs a normal standby process, which is not known to those skilled in the art, and thus the details are omitted herein for brevity.
In step 502, the bmc 1 sends a trigger signal to the programmable logic unit 7.
In step 503, when the programmable logic unit 7 receives the trigger signal, the programmable logic unit 7 transmits a notification signal (i.e., the PS _ ON signal) indicating that the main power supply is enabled to the power supply 96 and the first switching unit 92 in response to the trigger signal, thereby enabling the main power supply, and making the first switching unit 92 select to pass the main voltage Vpsu =12V provided by the power supply 96 to the first transformer 94. In the present embodiment, the programmable logic unit 7 enters the second mode by setting the enable main power signal (i.e., the AUX _ PSU _ EN signal) associated with enabling the main power to high and sending it to the and gate 91.
In step 504, the AND gate 91 AND-operates the enabled main power signal at a high level with the ON/off signal to obtain AND transmit the notification signal indicating that the main power is enabled (at this time, the PS _ ON signal after AND operation is at a high level) to the power supply 96 AND the first switching unit 92.
In step 505, the power supply 96 provides power greater than the main power of the standby power in response to the notification signal to output the main voltage Vpsu =12V and transmits the main voltage Vpsu =12V to the hot-plug control unit 6 and the first transformer 94 via the selection of the first switching unit 92 to output voltages to the bmc unit 1, the stage path control unit 2, the programmable logic unit 7, the hot-plug control unit 6 and the open computing card 5, thereby supplying sufficient power to the open computing card 5.
In step 506, the programmable logic unit 7 sets the auxiliary enable signal (i.e., the AUX _ PWR _ EN signal) related to the enabling of the standby power to high level and transmits the auxiliary enable signal to the open computing card 5 and the second switching unit 93, so that the second switching unit 93 selects the main voltage Vsb =12V provided by the power supply 96 to be transmitted to the fan 8, thereby providing the power to the fan 8.
In step 507, after the open operation card 5 receives the auxiliary power-up signal, the open operation card 5 sets the operation signal (i.e., the NIC _ PWR _ GOOD signal) indicating whether the power supplied to the open operation card 5 is stable to a high level and transmits the operation signal to the programmable logic unit 7 to indicate that the power supplied to the open operation card 5 is stable.
In step 508, the programmable logic unit 7 also maintains the card signal (i.e., the OCP _ V3_ EN signal) associated with the activation of the open computing card 5 high and sends it to the hot-plug control unit 6 while the computer system is in the second mode.
In step 509, the platform path control unit 2 asserts the status signal (i.e., the S3_ N signal) indicating whether the computer system is entering the boot stage to the programmable logic unit 7 to indicate that the computer system is not entering the boot stage.
In step 510, after the programmable logic unit 7 receives the status signal, the programmable logic unit 7 maintains the MAIN enable signal (i.e., the MAIN _ PWR _ EN signal) related to the enabling of the MAIN power source at a low level and transmits the MAIN enable signal to the open operation card 5 in response to the status signal being at a low level.
In step 511, the programmable logic unit 7 also maintains the supply signal (i.e., the MAIN _ PWR _ ON signal) indicating whether to supply the MAIN power source at a low level in response to the status signal and transmits the supply signal to the second transformer 95, so that the second transformer 95 does not output voltage to the cpu 3 and the memory unit 4 (see the dotted line portion of fig. 5), thereby not supplying the MAIN power source to the cpu 3 and the memory unit 4.
It should be noted that the execution sequence of steps 506 to 511 disclosed in this embodiment is only an example, and in practice, the execution sequence of steps 506 to 511 may be adjusted or performed simultaneously according to the requirement.
Referring to fig. 7 and 8, the computer system implements the main power supply procedure of the method for providing power during the standby phase according to the present invention. The main power supply process illustrates how the power supply 96 provides the main power to the computer system for booting, and includes the following steps.
In step 801, when the platform path control unit 2 receives a power-on signal, the platform path control unit 2 sets the status signal (i.e., the S3_ N signal) indicating whether the computer system enters the power-on phase to high, and sends the status signal to the programmable logic unit 7 to indicate that the computer system enters the power-on phase. In this embodiment, the power-on signal can be generated by the user pressing a power switch of the computer system or obtained by remotely transmitting a power-on command. When the platform path control unit 2 receives the power-on signal, the computer system will leave the standby phase and enter the power-on phase, otherwise the computer system will stay in the standby phase.
In step 802, after the programmable logic unit 7 receives the status signal, the programmable logic unit 7 sets the MAIN enable signal (i.e., the MAIN _ PWR _ EN signal) related to the enabling of the MAIN power source to a high level in response to the status signal being at a high level and transmits the MAIN enable signal to the open computing card 5 to enter the third mode.
In step 803, the programmable logic unit 7 sets the supply signal (i.e., the MAIN _ PWR _ ON signal) indicating whether to supply the MAIN power to the second transformer 95 in response to the status signal, so that the second transformer 95 outputs a regulated output voltage to the cpu 3 and the memory unit 4 after the MAIN voltage Vpsu =12V provided by the power supply 96 is adjusted by the second transformer 95, thereby supplying the MAIN power to the cpu 3 and the memory unit 4.
In step 804, when the computer system is in the third mode, the programmable logic unit 7 maintains the active main power signal (i.e., the AUX _ PSU _ EN signal) associated with the active main power at a high level and transmits the signal to the and gate 91.
In step 805, the AND gate 91 AND-operates the enabled main power signal at a high level with the ON/off signal to obtain AND transmit the notification signal indicating the enabling of the main power (at this time, the PS _ ON signal after AND operation is at a high level) to the power supply 96 AND the first switching unit 92, thereby maintaining the enabling of the main power.
In step 806, the power supply 96 provides the main power to output the main voltage Vpsu =12V in response to the notification signal and transmits the main voltage Vpsu =12V to the hot-plug control unit 6 and the first transformer 94 via the selection of the first switching unit 92 to output voltages to the bmc unit 1, the stage path control unit 2, the programmable logic unit 7, the hot-plug control unit 6, and the open computing card 5.
In step 807, the programmable logic unit 7 also maintains the card signal (i.e., the OCP _ V3_ EN signal) associated with the activation of the open computing card 5 at a high level and transmits it to the hot-plug control unit 6 while the computer system is in the third mode.
In step 808, when the computer system is in the third mode, the programmable logic unit 7 further maintains the auxiliary power-on signal (i.e., the AUX _ PWR _ EN signal) related to the power-on of the standby power at a high level and transmits the auxiliary power-on signal to the open computing card 5 and the second switching unit 93, so that the second switching unit 93 selects the main voltage Vsb =12V provided by the power supply 96 to be transmitted to the fan 8, thereby maintaining the power supply to the fan 8.
In step 809, when the computer system is in the third mode, the open computing card 5 maintains the operation signal (i.e., the NIC _ PWR _ GOOD signal) indicating whether the power supplied to the open computing card 5 is stable at a high level and transmits the operation signal to the programmable logic unit 7 to indicate that the power supplied to the open computing card 5 is stable.
It should be noted that the execution sequence of the steps 803 to 809 disclosed in this embodiment is only an example, and in practice, the execution sequence of the steps 803 to 809 can be adjusted or performed simultaneously according to the requirement.
In summary, in the method for providing power during standby phase of the present invention, the bmc 1 notifies the programmable logic unit 7 to send the notification signal indicating to activate the main power to the power supply unit 9 when determining that the standby power is insufficient, so that the power supply unit 9 can provide the main power greater than the standby power to the open computing card 5 in advance when the computer system is in the second mode, although the main power of the power supply 96 can be enabled in advance when the computer system is in the second mode, however, the AUX _ PWR _ EN signal, the MAIN _ PWR _ ON signal, the NIC _ PWR _ GOOD signal, and the power-up sequence are all compliant with open-plan computing standards, can be applied to the specification of open operation plan and meet the requirement of standby power supply required by the computer system supporting the specification of open operation plan. In addition, the power supply 96 used in the present invention can be a power supply 96 commonly used in the industry, and there is no need to customize the power supply 96 using high standby power, so as to greatly reduce the cost of designing and applying safety regulations for the new power supply 96, and accelerate the design schedule of the system product, thereby achieving the purpose of the present invention.
