Description
The present invention relates to a smart power supply unit.
A power supply unit (PSU) that can be easily accessed in real life is a device that rectifies AC power to a rectified power source and supplies it to various electronic devices using rectified power. The power supply unit is a linear type and a switching Switching type power supplies.
Among the above methods, a switching power supply (SMPS, hereinafter referred to as "switching power supply") has a small size, high efficiency, and stable output, unlike the linear type.
In general, a smoothing capacitor uses an aluminum electrolytic capacitor capable of producing a large capacity capacitor at a low cost. The capacitor used in a switching power supply has a lifetime of about 7 to 10 years in an environment of 25 degrees, There is a large gap in capacitor life over temperature for about two years.
When such an aluminum electrolytic capacitor is used in a high-temperature sealed environment such as a switching power supply, the electrolytic solution filled therein is evaporated by the heat generated in the capacitor.
The evaporation of the electrolyte reduces the capacitance of the capacitor, so that the capacity of the capacitor decreases with time, thereby increasing the ripple of the output voltage of the rectifier.
That is, when the switching power supply is used for a certain period of time, the capacity of the smoothing capacitor is reduced, and an excessive ripple voltage is generated. Excessive ripple voltage is a main cause of failure of the system by changing characteristics of the switching power supply .
Accordingly, a method for minimizing the ripple voltage has been sought, and this is disclosed in Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 10-1995-0015939.
However, it is possible to minimize the ripple voltage, but it is impossible to eliminate the source from the source. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the life of the power supply device by monitoring the state of the smoothing capacitor in real time.
Therefore, in order to predict the lifetime of the switching power supply, a technique for measuring and monitoring voltage ripple of the smoothing capacitor in real time should be sought.
An object of the present invention is to provide a power supply unit capable of detecting whether or not a capacitor has failed and a lifetime based on a ripple voltage generated by an electric element to detect whether or not the power supply unit normally operates.
The above object of the present invention can be achieved by a power supply apparatus comprising: a power input unit for receiving AC power from the outside; a power output unit for rectifying AC power supplied from the power input unit to supply rectified power to the load; A power detector for detecting the presence or absence of a defect, a power usage calculator for calculating a power consumed in the load,
A monitoring unit for storing monitoring information including a presence / absence of a defect detected by the power detecting unit and an amount of power calculated by the power usage calculating unit; and a monitoring unit for transmitting monitoring information stored in the monitoring unit to a management server, And a control unit for controlling the power input unit or the power output unit according to received monitoring information or control information received from the management server.
Wherein the power detection unit includes a voltage detection unit that detects a voltage value of the AC power input to the power input unit and a voltage value of the rectified power source rectified by the power output unit, A ripple voltage detecting portion for detecting the presence or absence of a defect in the ripple voltage, and a current detecting portion for detecting the presence or absence of a defect in the current of the rectified power supply rectified by the power output portion.
The voltage detection unit may include a first amplification stage for amplifying the voltage value of the AC power input to the power input unit and the rectified power rectified by the power output unit and amplifying the rectified power with a predetermined gain, A first filter stage for removing a high frequency band of the AC power source and a rectified power source, and a first filter stage for detecting the presence or absence of a defect by comparing the AC power source and the rectified power source, And a detection stage.
The ripple voltage detection section may include a coupling stage for removing a direct current component from a signal rectified by the power output section, a second amplification stage for amplifying a rectified power source from which the direct current component is removed by the coupling stage, A ripple voltage is extracted from a rectified power source amplified by the second amplification stage to remove a high frequency band and a rectified power source in which a high frequency band is removed by the second filter stage and then compared with a normal ripple voltage value, And a second detection stage for detecting the first detection signal.
A third filter stage for removing a high frequency band of the rectified power source amplified by the third amplification stage and a third filter stage for removing a high frequency band amplified by the third amplification stage, And a third detection stage for detecting the presence or absence of a defect by comparing a rectified power source in which a high frequency band has been removed by a stage with a normal current value.
The monitoring unit accumulates the voltage value detected by the voltage detecting unit, the ripple voltage detecting unit, and the current detecting unit, the ripple voltage value, and the current value every predetermined time unit, and, based on the rate of change of the accumulated value, And estimates the life of the output section.
If the control unit detects that the voltage value, the ripple voltage value, and the current value are defective by the voltage detection unit, the ripple voltage detection unit, and the current detection unit, the control unit detects the detected voltage value, the ripple voltage value, And provides monitoring information to the management server at different alarm levels according to the magnitude of the current value.
The control section controls the power input section to stop the operation of the power input section when it is detected that a defect has occurred in at least one of the voltage detection section, the ripple voltage detection section, and the current detection section.
The control unit receives the normal voltage value, the normal ripple voltage value, and the normal current value, which are the criteria for detecting the presence or absence of a defect in the voltage detecting portion, the ripple voltage detecting portion, or the current detecting portion, And to detect the presence or absence of a defect in the power supply according to the received normal value.
The power usage calculation unit may store the power usage of the load at predetermined time intervals, and may transmit power usage information for each period to the monitoring unit.
The present invention can expect the effect of quickly replacing parts by monitoring the occurrence of ripple voltage which may be caused by a failure of the power supply unit in real time.
Further, it is possible to detect the presence or absence of a defect in the ripple voltage, and to detect abnormality of the input power source, such as a fluctuation of the output voltage and the output current value rectified by the rectifying circuit, Various problems are detected at the same time, so that it is possible to expect an effect that the power supply unit can be easily checked by approaching the generated problem in various angles.
