[0027] Specific embodiments of the present application are disclosed with reference to the drawings, wherein the principles of the present application can be employed. It is to be understood that the embodiments are only exemplary of the application and do not appear to limit the scope of the application. The embodiments of the present application include many changes, modifications and equivalents within the spirit and scope of the claims.
[0028] Features described and / or illustrated with respect to one implementation can be used in the same or similar manner in one or more other implementations, in combination with other features in the other implementations, or in place of other features in the other implementations.
[0029] It should be emphasized that the term "comprises / comprising" when used in this text is taken to mean the presence of stated features, integers, steps or components, but not to the exclusion of one or more other features, integers, steps or components, or groups thereof.

[0051] S802 After a second preset time period, the first switch module is controlled to cut off the power supply channel between the first power supply unit and the output module by the second control signal;
[0052] S803 According to the supply target voltage, the output voltage of the power control circuit is adjusted.
[0053] In this embodiment, mainly for information processing system needs low voltage, need to adjust the power supply power, the control method of the power control circuit can refer to Figure 9 As shown in the above
[0054] VC1 is the power supply of the first power provided by the first power supply unit, and VC2 is the power supply at the entrance of the output module; wherein, at time t1, low voltage needs to be output, therefore, VG2 is set high (the DC-DC controller is turned on to provide the power supply of the second power), at time t2 in the second preset time period, VG1 is set high (the power supply of LLC to the information processing system is cut off), at this time, the power control circuit can keep the output voltage, and thus, through feedback, the output of the power control circuit can be adjusted to the supply target voltage required by the information processing system.
