Description of drawings
Fig. 1 is the structural representation of a preferred embodiment of the disclosed control circuit of the utility model.
Embodiment
The utility model is intended to propose a kind of control circuit of hard disk drive working station indicator, to realize adopting control signal in the same way, the working station indicator of control SAS or SATA hard disk drive.
That is to say, both can use the SAS hard disk drive at one, but memory device that again can the SATA hard disk drive (such as, the webserver) in: when hard disk drive is in (IDLE) state following time free time, no matter current use is SAS hard disk drive or SATA hard disk drive, all described indicator light is sent the control signal that is all low level or high level, the indicator light of control hard disk drive is permanent bright; When hard disk drive is in use (ACTIVE) state following time, then control described indicator light flicker.
Please refer to shown in Figure 1ly, is the structural representation of a preferred embodiment of the disclosed control circuit of the utility model.
This control circuit comprises: detecting unit 110; Control unit 120; First, second, third transistor 131,132 and 133; Indicator light 150.Wherein, described detecting unit 110 is used to detect the type of the hard disk drive that is attached thereto, and when being the SAS hard disk drive, output is output as the signal of electronegative potential; The collector electrode (C) of the drain of described the first transistor 131 (D), transistor seconds 132 and the gate (G) of the 3rd transistor 133 are connected to a power supply jointly, the source electrode of the first transistor 131 (S) is connected to described power supply jointly with the base stage (B) of transistor seconds 132, and the emitter (E) of the gate of the first transistor 131 and transistor seconds 132 all is connected with the output of described detecting unit 110; The negative electrode of described indicator light 150 is connected with the 3rd transistorized drain, and anode connects described power supply; The output of described control unit 120 is connected with the source electrode of the first transistor 131, and according to the hard disk drive type of described detecting unit 110 detections and the operating state of hard disk drive, the corresponding control signal of its output output is controlled described indicator light 150.
Wherein, described the first, the 3rd transistor 131 and 133 is a nmos pass transistor, and described transistor seconds 132 is N type three polar bodys; Described indicator light 150 is a light-emitting diode; And the gate of described the first transistor 13l is connected in series with first resistor 141, and the gate of described transistor seconds 132 is connected in series with second resistor 142; The gate of described the 3rd transistor 133 is connected in series with the 3rd resistor 143, and described power supply is 5.2 volts a DC power supply.
The following specifically describes the operation principle of the control circuit of present embodiment.
Have difference on SAS hard disk drive and the SATA hard disk drive structure, therefore, also have difference on data/control interface, comparatively common is that the data/control interface of SATA hard disk drive is generally the interface of 7 pin bits (pin); And the data/control interface of SAS hard disk drive has gone out to have beyond 7 identical pin positions, also have one and be the signal pins bit of mini_SAS, therefore, described detecting unit 110 can be judged the type of current hard disk drive by detecting the signal of this pin bit.
When the type that detects currentfixeddiskdrive when described detecting unit 110 is the SAS hard disk drive, output output low level (the being equal to ground connection) signal of described detecting unit 110.At this moment, the gate of described the first transistor 131 and the voltage Vgs=0 volt between the source electrode are so described the first transistor 131 ends; And because the emitter of transistor seconds 132 is connected with the output of described detecting unit 110, so the emission of transistor seconds 132 electronegative potential very.
Situation one, when described control unit 120 its outputs of control are output as the control signal of electronegative potential, at this moment, the base stage of described transistor seconds 132 also is an electronegative potential, described transistor seconds 132 not conductings, make the gate of described the 3rd transistor 133 and voltage Vgs>0 between the source electrode and conducting, spur described indicator light 150 conductings thus, promptly described indicator light 150 is lighted.
Situation two, when described control unit 120 its outputs of control are output as the control signal of high potential, at this moment, the base stage of described transistor seconds 132 is high potential and conducting, make the gate of described the 3rd transistor 133 and voltage Vgs<0 between the source electrode and not conducting, so the two ends of described indicator light 150 are high potential and not conducting, promptly described indicator light 150 is not luminous.
When the type of seeing currentfixeddiskdrive when described detecting unit 110 was the SATA hard disk drive, the output of described detecting unit 110 was unsettled, is similar to the output high potential.At this moment, described the first transistor 131 conductings; And the emitter of transistor seconds 132 is connected with the output of described detecting unit 110, so the emitter of transistor seconds 132 is in suspension joint (floating) state and ends.
Situation one, when described control unit 120 its outputs of control are output as the control signal of electronegative potential, at this moment, the 133 not conductings of described the 3rd transistor are so the two ends of described indicator light 150 are high potential and not conducting.
Situation two, when described control unit 120 its outputs of control are output as the control signal of high potential, at this moment, described the 3rd transistor 133 conductings, and spur described indicator light 150 conductings
In addition, what need supplementary notes is, when the type that detects currentfixeddiskdrive when described detecting unit 110 was the SAS hard disk drive, the control signal of described control unit 120 outputs can be reversed, to realize control signal in the same way.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, no matter hard disk drive still be the SATA type for the SAS type, all can simply, effectively control when hard disk drive and be in the free time during (IDLE) state, described indicator light 150 perseverances are bright.And be in use (ACTIVE) state following time when hard disk drive, only the control signal that need constantly be changed by described control unit 120 outputs then can effectively be controlled described indicator light 150 flickers, at this enumeration no longer.
The above person only is the utility model preferred embodiment wherein, is not to be used for limiting practical range of the present utility model; Be that all equalizations of being done according to the utility model claim change and modification, be all the utility model claim and contain.
