Embodiment 1
[0012] Interconnect the FW and the two power modules through the PMBus bus;
[0013] The operation method is as follows:
[0014] First, the FW reads the power consumption of the server system through the PMBus command. According to the power consumption of the server system, one power module should be turned on and the other power module should be turned off; secondly, the FW numbers all the power modules as 0 and 1 respectively. , and maintain two queues, one is to turn on the queue of the power module number, referred to as the running queue, put the power module number 0 into the running queue; the other is to turn off the queue of the power module number, called the rest queue for short, put the The module is placed in the rest queue; when alternate switching is required, the queue follows the principle of first-in-first-out to ensure that the power module that has been running the longest is turned off first, and the number 1 power module is selected from the rest queue ...
Embodiment 2
[0016] Interconnect the FW and the four power modules through the PMBus bus;
[0017] The operation method is as follows:
[0018] First, the FW reads the power consumption of the server system through the PMBus command. According to the power consumption of the server system, it decides that two power modules should be turned on at the same time, and the other two power modules should be turned off; secondly, the FW numbers all the power modules as 0, 1, 2, 3, and maintain two queues, one is to turn on the queue of the power module number, referred to as the running queue, put the power module number 0, 1 into the running queue; the other two are to turn off the power module number queue , referred to as the rest queue, put the number 2 and 3 power modules into the rest queue; when alternate switching is required, the queue follows the principle of first-in-first-out to ensure that the longest-running power module is shut down first, and the number 2 is selected from the rest...
Embodiment 3
[0020] Interconnect the FW and the seven power modules through the PMBus bus;
[0021] The operation method is as follows:
[0022] First, the FW reads the power consumption of the server system through the PMBus command. According to the power consumption of the server system, it decides that two power modules should be turned on at the same time, and the other two power modules should be turned off; secondly, the FW numbers all the power modules as 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and maintain two queues, one is to open the queue of the power module number, referred to as the running queue, and put the power module numbered 0, 1, 2 into the running queue; The most important is to turn off the power module numbered queue, referred to as the rest queue, put the power modules numbered 3, 4, 5, and 6 into the rest queue; when alternate switching is required, the queue follows the first-in-first-out principle to ensure that the longest running power supply The module is turned off first, an...
