Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of power supply technology, and in particular to a multi-input power supply system. Background Art
[0002] Multi-input voltage detection and processing circuits are often used in redundant power supply systems to ensure system reliability and safety, such as Figure 1 As shown, it is assumed that there is a system containing three power supplies (A, B, C), and the priority order is set to A>B>C. When the three inputs of A, B, and C are all normal, the system gives priority to A for power supply. When the voltage of A is abnormal and the B and C are normal, the system automatically switches to C for power supply. For the system, if a non-isolated power conversion circuit topology is used, that is, the outputs of multiple input power supplies are directly connected in parallel, in this case, the following problems will occur. When the circuit breaker of A of the power supply unit PSU1 trips, PSU1 switches to B for power supply, and PSU2 still works on A. If insulation abnormality occurs in B, since the power conversion unit is not isolated, the insulation abnormality of B will be transmitted to A, causing insulation abnormality in A, which will increase the safety risks of the system and may cause equipment damage or personal injury. Secondly, when the system has an insulation warning, since multiple power supplies are output in parallel, it is impossible to accurately determine which power supply caused the insulation problem. In the case of continuous power supply to the system, it is difficult to locate the specific fault point, which increases the difficulty and time of troubleshooting.

[0029] Each voltage analysis submodule includes: a voltage analysis unit and a first voltage isolation chip, the voltage analysis unit includes multiple second input terminals and multiple second output terminals, the first voltage isolation chip includes multiple third input terminals and multiple third output terminals, wherein each second input terminal is connected to a first output terminal, each third input terminal is connected to a second output terminal, and multiple third output terminals are respectively connected to the voltage summary module; the voltage analysis unit is used to analyze the power input voltage input by each second input terminal respectively, and output the first level corresponding to each power input voltage through each second output terminal respectively; the first voltage isolation chip is used to isolate the multiple first levels input by the multiple third input terminals, and output the isolated multiple first levels to the voltage summary module through the multiple third output terminals respectively.
[0030] Optionally, when the input power input voltage is normal, the first level output by the voltage analysis unit is a preset high level; when the input power input voltage is abnormal, the first level output by the voltage analysis unit is a preset low level.
[0031] Optionally, the voltage aggregation module includes: multiple voltage acquisition circuits and a second voltage isolation chip, the second voltage isolation chip includes multiple fourth input terminals and multiple fourth output terminals, and the voltage analysis unit also includes multiple fifth input terminals, wherein the first terminal of each voltage acquisition circuit is connected to a third output terminal of a first voltage isolation chip, and the second terminals of the multiple voltage acquisition circuits corresponding to the same power module are connected in parallel to a fourth input terminal of the second voltage isolation chip, and each fourth output terminal is connected to a fifth input terminal; each voltage acquisition circuit is used to acquire a first level, wherein the second terminals of the multiple voltage acquisition circuits corresponding to the same power module are connected in parallel to output the second level corresponding to the same power module; the second voltage isolation chip is used to isolate the multiple second levels input by the multiple fourth input terminals, and output the isolated multiple second levels to the voltage analysis unit through the multiple fourth output terminals respectively.
[0032] Optionally, each voltage acquisition circuit includes: a first resistor and a second resistor, wherein the first end of the first resistor is connected to a third output end of a first voltage isolation chip, the second end of the first resistor is connected to the first end of the second resistor, the second end of the second resistor is grounded, and the second ends of multiple first resistors in multiple voltage acquisition circuits corresponding to the same power supply module are connected in parallel to a fourth input end of the second voltage isolation chip.
[0033] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application can achieve electrical isolation between the voltage acquisition circuit and the main power supply circuit by introducing a voltage isolation chip before and after the voltage acquisition circuit, thereby ensuring that the voltage signal collected during the voltage acquisition stage is a safe voltage to meet safety regulations.
[0034] Optionally, the voltage analysis submodule also includes: a pluggable output terminal, the pluggable output terminal includes: three power pins and multiple signal pins, the power pins include: a first output positive pin, a second output positive pin and an output negative pin, and the signal pin includes: a summary voltage input pin and a ground pin; wherein, the first end of the first output positive pin and the first end of the second output positive pin are both connected to the output positive pole of the target power module, and the second end of the first output positive pin and the second end of the second output positive pin are both connected to the input positive pole of the load; the first end of the output negative pin is connected to the output negative pole of the target power module, and the second end of the output negative pin is connected to the input negative pole of the load; the first end of each summary voltage input pin is connected to a fifth input terminal of the voltage analysis unit, and the second end of each summary voltage input pin is connected to a fourth output terminal of the second voltage isolation chip; the first end of the ground pin is connected to the ground terminal of the voltage analysis unit, and the second end of the ground pin is grounded.
[0035] Among them, when designing terminal pins that support hot plugging, the diameter of the power pin is usually thicker than the diameter of the signal pin. The thicker diameter reduces resistance and improves conductivity, so that when the power pin carries a large current, it can reduce power loss and reduce the heating problem caused by excessive current. In order to ensure safety during hot plugging, the length of the first output positive pin is usually shorter than the length of the second output positive pin and the output negative pin. Considering the signal synchronization problem during hot plugging, the length of each summary voltage input pin is usually longer than the length of the ground pin. This is because if the length of the summary voltage input pin and the ground pin is the same, there will often be errors between the pin lengths of each summary voltage input pin, which will cause the signals input by each summary voltage input pin to be out of sync during hot plugging. At this time, the voltage corresponding to the summary voltage signal pin that contacts first will be reduced first, causing the system to malfunction; by designing the length of the common ground pin of each summary voltage input pin to be shorter than the length of each summary voltage input pin, even if there is an error between the pin lengths of each summary voltage input pin, due to the common ground, the signals input by each summary voltage input pin are still synchronized and will not cause erroneous switching. A schematic diagram of a planar structure of an optional pluggable output terminal in an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, the physical structure diagram is as follows Figure 4 shown.
[0036] Optionally, to further improve safety, the pluggable output terminal is also provided with a pin connection verification function; the voltage analysis unit receives multiple second levels only when all signal pins are connected normally to the voltage analysis unit and the second voltage isolation chip; and the target power supply module is controlled to supply power to the load only when all power pins are connected normally to the target power supply module.
[0037] Figure 5 A structural diagram of a multi-input power supply system according to an embodiment of the present application is given. Figure 5 In the input power supply, multiple power supply modules 511-519 are included, wherein the power supply modules Vin1_A_sam, Vin2_A_sam, Vin3_A_sam are all A power supplies, Vin1_B_sam, Vin2_B_sam, Vin3_B_sam are all B power supplies, Vin1_C_sam, Vin2_C_sam, Vin3_C_sam are all C power supplies, and the three branches of Vin1_A_sam, Vin1_B_sam, and Vin1_C_sam are used for example analysis, and the other branches are analyzed by analogy. The input end of the voltage sampling submodule 5211 is respectively connected to the power supply modules Vin1_A_sam, Vin1_B_sam, and Vin1_C_sam, and the output of the module is respectively connected to the input end of the voltage analysis unit 52121 of the voltage analysis submodule 5212, and multiple first levels are output to the voltage The input end of the first voltage isolation chip 52122 of the analysis submodule 5212 and the output end of the first voltage isolation chip 52122 are respectively connected to the voltage acquisition circuit of the voltage aggregation module 33. For the power supply Vin1_A_sam branch, the branch includes a voltage acquisition circuit 531. The output Vin1_A_sam1 of the branch is connected in parallel with other branches of the same power supply output. Similarly, the voltage acquisition circuit 531, the voltage acquisition circuit 534, and the voltage acquisition circuit 537 all belong to the A power supply. Therefore, the output ends of these three branches are connected in parallel, and their outputs are connected to an input port of the second voltage isolation chip. Each branch is connected in this way. Finally, the second voltage isolation chip outputs the corresponding VA_sam or VB_sam or VC_sam, and VA_sam, VB_sam, and VC_sam are respectively connected to the voltage analysis submodules 5212, 5222, and 5232.
[0038] Figure 6 Given the above Figure 5 The specific circuit diagram of multiple voltage acquisition circuits in the example Figure 6As shown, each voltage acquisition circuit includes: a first resistor and a second resistor. Taking one of the voltage acquisition circuits as an example, the first end of the first resistor R1A1 inputs the first level 1 of the third output end of the first voltage isolation chip, the second end of the first resistor R1A1 is connected to the first end of the second resistor R1A2, and the second end of the second resistor R1A2 is grounded. Since the first level 1, the first level 4, and the first level 7 all correspond to the A power supply, that is, the power supply module is the same, the second end of the first resistor R1A1, the second end of the first resistor R2A1, and the second end of the first resistor R3A1 are connected in parallel to a fourth input end of the second voltage isolation chip, and the same connection method is used for other voltage acquisition circuits.
[0039] As an optional implementation, in the above system, each voltage analysis submodule is also used to sort multiple second levels from large to small; when the maximum second level is one, the power module corresponding to the maximum second level is determined as the target power module; when the maximum second level is multiple, the power module with the highest preset priority among the multiple power modules corresponding to the maximum second level is determined as the target power module.
[0040] The specific calculation and switching process can be referred to as follows:
[0041] Likewise Figure 6 Taking the circuit shown as an example, to simplify the design, the resistance values of resistors R1A1, R1B1, R1C1, R2A1, R2B1, R2C1, R3A1, R3B1, and R3C1 remain the same and are defined as R001; the resistance values of R1A2, R1B2, R1C2, R2A2, R2B2, R2C2, R3A2, R3B2, and R3C2 remain the same and are defined as R002.
[0042] The output voltage of the second output terminal, that is, the output terminal of the voltage analysis unit is defined as Vcc.
[0043] Analysis of A path of a power switching module:
[0044] When Vin1_A_sam is set to high level 1, the VA_sam voltage is
[0045] When Vin1_A_sam is set to low level 0, the VA_sam voltage is 0.
[0046] For the analysis of the two power switching modules A, Vin1_A_sam and Vin2_A_sam have the following four combinations: (0, 0), (0, 1), (1, 0), (1, 1):
[0047] (0, 0) state: VA_sam voltage is: 0;
[0048] (0, 1), (1, 0) state: VA_sam voltage is:
[0049] (1, 1) state: VA_sam voltage is:
[0050] For the analysis of the A-path of the three power switching modules, Vin1_A_sam, Vin2_A_sam, and Vin3_A_sam have the following four combinations: (0, 0, 0), (0, 0, 1), (0, 1, 0), (1, 0, 0), (0, 1, 1), (1, 1, 0), (1, 0, 1), (1, 1, 1):
[0051] (0, 0, 0) state: VA_sam voltage is 0V;
[0052] (0, 0, 1), (0, 1, 0), (1, 0, 0) state: VA_sam voltage is:
[0053] (0, 1, 1), (1, 1, 0), (1, 0, 1) state: VA_sam voltage is:
[0054] (1, 1, 1) state: VA_sam voltage is:
[0055] No matter how many power switching modules there are, it is only necessary to collect the voltages of VA_sam1, VB_sam1, and VC_sam1 and compare the voltages of each branch. When the voltages of each branch are the same, they will automatically work in the highest priority (first priority) branch according to the set priority or send other branches through background monitoring. When the voltage of the first priority branch is lower than the voltage of the second priority branch, all power switching modules in the system will automatically switch to the second priority. When the voltages of the first and second priority branches are both lower than the voltage of the third priority branch, all power switching modules in the system will automatically switch to the third priority. When there are more power switching modules, the switching method is similar.

In this way, multiple power switching modules and voltage aggregation modules can quickly and uniformly switch the power inputs provided by multiple power modules at the same time, and the multiple inputs are independent of each other, without causing mutual interference problems.
