Specific embodiment
Next the part embodiment of the utility model will cooperate attached drawing to be described in detail, cited in description below Component symbol will be regarded as the same or similar element when identical component symbol occur in different attached drawings.These embodiments are this The some of utility model does not disclose the embodiment of all the utility model.
Fig. 2A is the block diagram of computer system shown by an embodiment according to the utility model, is to simplify attached drawing with more It clearly demonstrates, the other elements of computer system 200 do not show that in Fig. 2A.
A referring to figure 2., computer system 200 include power supply adaptor 205, power control 210 and load 220.? This computer system 200 can be the portable electronic devices such as laptop, tablet computer, smart phone.
In the present embodiment, power supply adaptor 205 can have the function such as AC-DC conversion or DC-DC conversion Can, socket of the one end to connect power supply network, and the other end is to be plugged to power control 210.In other embodiments, Power supply adaptor 205 can also use the forms such as automobile-used adapter or Mobile electric power adapter.
In the present embodiment, power control 210 include charging circuit 212, main battery 214, boosting battery 216 and Control circuit 218.Charging circuit 212 is electrically connected main battery 214 and boosting battery 216, and control circuit 218 is electrically connected Charging circuit 212, main battery 214 and boosting battery 216.Charging circuit 212 has adaptor spigot, comes from electricity to receive The input of source adapter 205 is powered, to charge to main battery 214 and boosting battery 216.Main battery 214 and auxiliary Battery 216 be can multiple charge and discharge lithium ion TunePower, and its details will be described in later.Control circuit 218 It can be embedded controller (embedded controller, EC), microcontroller (microcontroller), power management Integrated circuit (power management integrated circuit, PMIC) etc. handles chip or integrated circuit component, with Realize the management and running for power control 210.
In the present embodiment, the element that power control 210 will be needed to power in computer system 200, integrally shows It is out load 220.Load 220 is electrically connected with power control 210, such as: load 220 may include motherboard, processing The elements such as device, display card, hard disk, screen.
In the present embodiment, computer system 200 will be illustrated using laptop as example, wherein power control 210 and device noumenon 220 be located in the shell of laptop, and power supply adaptor 205 it is pluggable to or remove in power supply The charging circuit 212 of control device 210.
In the present embodiment, main battery 214 includes the battery of the first quantity, and battery can be using 18650 specifications The battery of lithium battery or other appropriate sizes.Such as: when battery can provide 3.7 volts of voltage, and main battery 214 needs When providing about 14 volts of output voltage, 4 concatenated 3.7 volts of batteries are can be used in main battery 214, to provide 14.8 volts of output voltage.Boosting battery 216 includes the battery of the second quantity, and the battery of the second quantity is less than master The battery of first quantity of battery 214, to save hardware space.Such as: boosting battery 216 can be only with 1 3.7 volts Battery to save volume.With the block diagram of boosting battery 216 shown by an embodiment of Fig. 2 B according to the utility model For, boosting battery 216 may include booster circuit 2162, battery 2164, boosting enable pin P, ground connection pin B-, charging Foot B+CHG and electric discharge pin B+DSG.Control circuit 218 can transmit enable signal by boosting enable pin P, auxiliary to be arranged Help the function mode of battery 216.Control circuit 218 can be caused according to the transformation between low-voltage signal and high-voltage signal to generate It can signal.After 218 enable boosting battery 216 of control circuit, due to the negligible amounts of its battery 2164, using liter Volt circuit 2162 is greater than or equal to the output voltage of main battery 214 the output voltage of boosting battery 216 is arranged, in order to avoid cause to lead Battery 214 needs the case where powering to boosting battery 216 instead.Here, boosting battery 216 be by charging pin B+CHG come Self-charging circuit 212 obtains power supply, and then charges to battery 2164, and by electric discharge pin B+DSG come to load 220 are powered.Additionally, Fig. 2 B is only one of embodiment, and in other embodiments, booster circuit It can be and be not included among boosting battery, but the output of boosting battery electricity is set to be electrically connected the framework of boosting battery Pressure is greater than or equal to the output voltage of main battery.
Fig. 3 is the flow chart of power control method shown by an embodiment according to the utility model, and the process of Fig. 3 Computer system 200 suitable for Fig. 2A.
Referring to Fig. 2A, Fig. 2 B and Fig. 3, the control circuit 218 of power control 210, which will test, carrys out self-charging The protection signal (step S302) of circuit 212.Here, protection signal is mainly in when that the has overcurrent event institute of computer system 200 The response made.By taking the charger with narrow voltage DC framework (Narrow Voltage Direct Current) as an example, protect Protecting signal is then PROCHOT signal.Protection signal can be to be stopped obtaining from power supply adaptor 205 to electricity in charging circuit 212 It is triggered when source, such as: the time point that the time point that 205 self-charging circuit 212 of power supply adaptor removes either blackout condition occurs. In another embodiment, having can be when the firmware or software of computer system 200 has detected the power supply input signal of power supply network When disappearance, and accordingly generate protection signal.For another viewpoint, charging circuit 212 is by receiving power supply input signal First state is converted to the time point for the second state for not receiving power supply input signal, i.e., can generate protection signal.
When control circuit 218 detects protection signal, it will by boosting enable pin P come enable boosting battery 216 (step S304), to be powered (step S306) to load 220 simultaneously by main battery 214 and boosting battery 216, from And avoid the drop degree of performance of computer system 200 excessive and user is allowed significantly to experience the difference on system effectiveness, it can also It avoids the drop degree of performance of computer system 200 insufficient and no early warning is caused to be shut down.Main battery 214 and boosting battery 216 are being put Electricity process in, control circuit 218 by the output voltage for judging boosting battery 216 whether be lower than predeterminated voltage (step S308) its Middle predeterminated voltage is, for example, 3V.If so, control circuit 218 will forbidden energy boosting battery 216 and terminate this power control flow.
On the other hand, when control circuit 218 be not detected protection signal when, then will not enable boosting battery 216, that is, This power control flow is only terminated to be powered (step S310) to load 220 by main battery 214 in typical fashion.
In conclusion the power control that the utility model is proposed, can stop obtaining and arrive power supply in charging circuit When, load is powered simultaneously using main battery and boosting battery.In this way, can avoid the drop efficiency of computer system Degree is excessive and user is allowed significantly to experience the difference on system effectiveness, also can avoid the drop degree of performance of computer system not Cause no early warning to be shut down enough, and then promotes user's experience.
Although the utility model is disclosed as above with embodiment, so it is not intended to limit the utility model, any affiliated Technical staff in technical field, without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, when can make a little change and retouching, therefore Subject to the protection scope of the utility model ought be defined depending on claim.
