The low-power CPU communicates with the smart battery, reads information such as power, and the low-power CPU controls the power enable pin to turn on and off the machine.

[0077] Furthermore, it also includes an indicator light circuit module;

[0078] The LDO power circuit module supplies power to the indicator light circuit module;

[0087] The G pole of the third NMOS tube Q4 is connected to the 51 pin of the first microprocessor U2 through the fourteenth resistor R19.

[0088] The working principle of the incoming call automatic power-on circuit of this application is:

[0089] Use the built-in flash or EEEPRM to save a variable to record whether the last shutdown was normal or abnormal, and then determine whether to automatically start up based on the state of this variable each time the program is initialized.

[0090] The specific process is that the CPU initializes and runs, first reading the variables to see whether the variables were "normal" or "abnormal" last time, and judging whether it needs to be automatically turned on based on the state of the variables. After each startup, the variables are initialized to "abnormal".

[0091] If the computer is turned off by pressing a button after startup or the battery is low and the computer is shut down automatically, change the variable to "normal" before shutting down the computer. Then the next time the CPU is initialized, it will read "normal".

[0092] If the machine is not shut down normally after startup, but suddenly loses power during operation, the variable will not change, or the initialized value will be "abnormal", then the next time the CPU is initialized, it will read "abnormal".

[0093] Then next time:

[0094] If the CPU initialization run reads "abnormal" last time, the CPU will enable all power supplies at a high level, automatically start up, and set the variable to "abnormal" after starting up.

[0095] If the CPU initialization run reads "normal" last time, the CPU will give a low level and will not automatically start up until the power button is detected to be pressed in the while loop or wake-up interrupt function. After starting up, the variable will be set to "abnormal".

[0096] After booting up, check whether it is a normal shutdown or an abnormal power outage. If it is a normal shutdown, change the variable to "normal" before shutting down. If it is an abnormal power outage, there is no time to modify the variable, and the variable will still be "abnormal".

[0097] The method for the upper computer to automatically restore the state before power failure is similar. After powering on, the current ventilation state is saved to the flash, and each modification is saved once. When there is an abnormal power failure, the previous saved state is read and restored after the next call to automatically start.

[0098] The power-on and power-off states and processes include:

[0099] 1. Automatically shutting down by pressing a button or automatically shutting down by software due to low battery is a normal power-off. Suddenly disconnecting all power supplies after starting up is an abnormal power-off. Disconnecting all power supplies after normal shutdown is a normal power-off.

[0100] 2. Power the CPU. In low-power Standby mode, the computer will restart after being woken up by a button or an external power source. It will detect whether the button is pressed to determine whether the computer is turned on.

[0101] 3. Power on and power off refers to whether the whole machine is turned on or off

[0102] Turn on the power, and enable the power supply 5V, 10V, 12V and other enable pins to a high level.

[0103] Shut down, power 5V, 10V, 12V and other enable pins to low level to shut down

[0104] 4. CPU wake-up processing:

[0105] When waking up, first check whether the last shutdown was normal.

[0106] If the last shutdown was abnormal, it will automatically restart.

[0107] If the last shutdown was normal, it will not automatically restart.

[0108] When waking up, check the power button status.

[0109] Check if the power button is pressed.

[0110] If there is a button pressed in the off state, you need to press the button to turn on the computer.

[0111] If not pressed, the device will not turn on.

[0112] 5. CPU shutdown processing:

[0113] Normal shutdown, power button shutdown and low battery software shutdown

[0114] Check the power supply status when shutting down.

[0115] If there is only battery, enter the shutdown low power mode Standby.

[0116] If there is still AC and DC power, enter shutdown Run mode.
