Problems solved by technology

[0003] Based on the specifications of the PCIE protocol, the design of the power supply system of the PFGA accelerator card needs to follow the restrictions of the PCIE protocol. According to different interface combinations, the maximum power that the slot part can provide is 75W. However, for mid-to-high-end FPGA accelerator cards, The power supply of 75W is not enough to support its normal work, and it is necessary to increase the auxiliary power supply of the PCIE interface according to the specific situation. Since the power supply of the auxiliary power supply is relatively large, but the FPGA components and other working components in the FPGA accelerator card are working. , the demand for power supply power varies according to the actual working conditions. Therefore, the current use of auxiliary power supplies is inflexible and relatively inefficient. At the same time, unreasonable use of auxiliary power supplies with high power supply will also cause damage to the FPGA accelerator card. The various components in the device bring hidden dangers to safety
