Description

Power supply system and server for mainboard chip
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of board card hardware design, in particular to a power supply system for a mainboard chip and a server comprising the power supply system for the mainboard chip.
Background
In the design of a hardware board, a power supply design is an indispensable part, and the current power supply design layout is mainly divided into chip periphery designs, such as a Central Processing Unit (CPU), a Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD), a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), and the like, which design a power supply around a chip and are as close as possible to the chip to facilitate power supply application of the chip; another method is to connect a power supply designed on the board card to an electric device, such as a hard disk, a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) and the like, through a cable and a connector. No matter which power supply mode, the central idea of power supply design is to ensure the orderly operation of equipment, and the requirements of the voltage drop from a power supply to a chip are as small as possible, the voltage is as stable as possible, and large fluctuation does not occur.
However, when the board card is designed, the chip and other devices have the design requirements of the signal part besides the requirement of the power supply, and if the signal processing part is not provided, the existence of the power supply also loses significance. The closer the signal and the power supply are to the chip, the better the signal and the power supply are, the competitive relationship exists between the signal and the power supply, and the switch of the switching power supply can generate real-time voltage jump and needs an inductor and a capacitor to realize filtering. The existence of the jump voltage and the inductor is disadvantageous to the signal part, and if the signal is too close to the switching power supply, the signal is interfered, so the signal needs to be routed around the power supply area, which is a competitive relationship between the two. In addition, the current power supply design is the same as the chip, and the power supply is tiled on a mainboard, so that certain board card area is occupied except for the influence of the power supply on signals. The work of the power supply and the chip can generate heat loss, so that the local temperature of the board card is increased, and the problem needs to be solved by heat dissipation.
The power supply and signal design of the chip on the board card mainly includes that an externally designed power supply flows into the chip to provide working power for the chip, signals in the chip are taken out of the chip and connected with other equipment to achieve the working purpose, and the layout of the chip on the board card can be represented by using a figure 1. As shown in fig. 1, the chip is a chip requiring four power supplies to supply power, in the conventional design, the four power supplies are named as power supply 1, power supply 2, power supply 3, and power supply 4, and are arranged at the four corners of the chip, and the voltages output by the power supplies supply power to the chip from the inner layers of the boards at the four corners. The input and output signals of the chip are respectively arranged on four sides of the chip, and the power supply part is avoided during design. Fig. 1 shows that the signal portion of the chip is squeezed by the space of the power supply, and in order to ensure the signal quality, the power supply needs to be avoided, the signal needs to go out through a far path, and the power supply needs to occupy more space around the chip, which is also a limitation in space for setting the required resistance and capacitance for placing the chip around the chip.
The analysis shows that the existing mainboard chip power supply system has the following defects: the power supply has the advantages that firstly, a certain board card area is needed for placing power supply parts, and the more the number of power supplies is, the larger the current is, the larger the required area is; the second disadvantage is that the power supply generates space compression on the signal, and the problem can be solved only by increasing the number of layers of the board card under the condition that the signal cannot be switched off, so that the difficulty and the cost of the production process are increased; the power supply and the chip are arranged in a centralized manner, so that the heat is concentrated, and the requirement on higher heat dissipation is met; the designed power supply needs to be tested, the load of the power supply is influenced by the existence of the chip, the test result cannot be correctly reflected, and the chip needs to be dismantled at the moment, so that waste is caused; and the power supply test needs to weld the board card, so that the board card can not be normally used after the test, and the board card is damaged.

The power supplies can be designed in parallel, a certain space is reserved on one side of the board card for enabling, and the power supplies complete the use of control parts such as signals.
The lower end of the power supply board is designed to be a plug connector or a welding connector, and the upper surface of the connector can connect the electricity on the power supply board to a mainboard where the central processing unit is located through the connector through an independent conductive terminal and a grounding terminal.
