When one of the power supplies fails and there is no 48V output or the power supply voltage output is abnormally low, the second controllable switch transistor Q3 is activated, causing pins 3 and 2 to be connected to ground. At this time, pin 2 of the first controllable switch transistor Q2 is connected to ground through the second controllable switch transistor Q3, and the inverting inputs of the two comparators are grounded, so that the voltage at the non-inverting input of the comparator is always greater than the voltage at the inverting input, and the comparator is always in a high-level output state. The relay will always be in a normally open contact state. At this time, the circuit is in a latched state, and the comparator will not re-compare the voltage until the power supply is turned off and then powered on again.

[0051] Furthermore, to ensure that the 12V voltage response time is slower than that of 48V and the comparator logic level output is normal, a third chip capacitor C3 and a fourth chip capacitor C4 with large capacitance are added to the 12V non-inverting input terminal of the two voltage comparator units relative to the ground, and a third chip resistor R3 and a sixth chip resistor R6 with large resistance are connected in series between the non-inverting input terminal of the comparator and the 12V input terminal, respectively.

The power input to this pin is used to power the two comparator units simultaneously through the internal circuit of the chip.

[0065] like Figure 2 As shown in the figure, when the two power supplies are normal, the comparator outputs a low level, the switch tube Q3 1 pin has no voltage and does not operate, then the internal inductor coil of relay K1 has no current and does not operate, and is in a normally closed contact, that is, K1's 5th and 3rd pins are short-circuited, and K1's 6th and 4th pins are short-circuited, separating the two power supply output ends and carrying loads separately, thereby switching hot redundancy to cold redundancy and putting the two power supplies in cold standby state.

Pins 3 and 2 of the switch tube Q3 will be connected to ground, and the relay will switch to the normally open contact, switching the load carried by the faulty power supply to the output load end of the normal power supply, thereby realizing the redundancy function.

[0068] like Figure 3 As shown, the embodiment circuit is applied to the redundant output lines of two power supplies in hot redundant state, that is, the black frame in the figure. The input voltages of the two power supplies need to be connected to the same power supply to ensure simultaneous power-on, so that the 48V output voltages of the two power supplies can be output basically synchronously to avoid the problem of comparator malfunction caused by long delay, and the automatic switching function of hot redundant to cold redundant backup power supply can be realized.
