[0027] The master module 10 and the sub-module 20 can be installed on the substrate through the corresponding interface, in the embodiment, the substrate can adopt a PCB board, the master module 10 and the sub-module 20 adopt differential signal communication, which has strong anti-interference ability and long transmission distance, and can meet the demand of high-speed communication system. Moreover, the clock fan-out module 30 has the characteristics of high precision and low jitter, through the clock fan-out module, the clock signal output by the master module 10 can be distributed to all sub-modules 20, ensuring that each sub-module 20 in the system can receive the same clock signal, ensuring the clock synchronization of all sub-modules 20 in the system, avoiding data errors or communication failures caused by inconsistent clock. Through the differential communication with strong anti-interference ability and the clock synchronization mechanism, the communication between the master module 10 and all sub-modules 20 is efficient and synchronized. The accurate distribution of clock signal and the cooperative work of differential communication signal transmission with strong anti-interference ability can ensure the stable transmission of data and avoid delay or packet loss phenomenon, so as to improve the signal quality of transmission data.

[0028] In an embodiment, the first differential pin and the second differential pin are LVDS pins; the communication line is an LVDS communication line, that is, the master module 10 and the sub-module 20 adopt LVDS differential signal transmission mode, which can realize high-speed data transmission at a rate of 300Mbps.

[0029] In an embodiment, as shown in the figure, Figure 2 A filter circuit 31 is arranged one-to-one between the output end of the clock fan-out module 30 and the clock signal input pin of the sub-module 20, and between the input end of the clock fan-out module 30 and the clock signal output pin of the master module 10. The filter circuit adopts a capacitor filter circuit, and can also adopt an RC filter circuit.

[0030] In an embodiment, in order to improve the reliability and fault tolerance of the system, in the embodiment, as shown in the figure, Figure 3As shown, the power supply is provided by the redundant power module 40, which in this embodiment can be provided by an uninterruptible power supply or a multi-power supply switching power supply, so that the system can still work normally when the main power supply is out of service, thereby improving the reliability of the system and avoiding system downtime caused by power supply failure.

[0031] In this embodiment, a multi-power supply switching power supply is taken as an example for illustration, as shown in Figure 4 The redundant power module 40 includes a main power input end 41, a backup power input end 42, and a power switching circuit 43. The main power input end 41 is connected to the main power supply, and the backup power input end 42 is connected to the backup power supply. The power switching circuit 43 includes a first branch 431 and a second branch 432 connected in parallel. The first branch 431 is connected to the main power input end 41, and the second branch 432 is connected to the backup power input end 42.

[0032] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 The power switching circuit 43 can be a diode parallel power switching circuit. The first branch 431 is connected in series with a first diode D1, and the second branch 432 is connected in series with a second diode D2. The anode of the first diode D1 is connected to the main power input end 41, and the cathode of the first diode D1 is connected to the output end of the power switching circuit 43. The anode of the second diode D2 is connected to the backup power input end 42, and the cathode of the second diode D2 is connected to the output end of the power switching circuit 43. The power switching circuit 43 can automatically select according to the voltage of the main power supply and the backup power supply. In normal state, the voltage of the main power supply is slightly higher than that of the backup power supply, so that the first diode is turned on and the second diode is turned off. When the main power supply is out of service, the second diode is turned on and the backup power supply is used.

[0033] In an optional embodiment, the backup power supply can be one or multiple, and the power switching circuit 43 can be two, three or more branches connected in parallel. Each branch can be connected in series with a diode and connected to a power supply. The diode can be a general diode or a Schottky diode.

A control switch Q1 is connected in series between the backup power input end 42 and the output end of the power switching circuit 43, and the main power input end 41 is connected to the control end of the control switch Q1.

The drain of the pmos tube is connected with the standby power supply input end 42. The source of the pmos tube is connected with the output end of the power supply switching circuit. The gate of the pmos tube is connected with the main power supply input end 41. When the main power supply input end 41 has electricity, the pmos tube is cut off. Even if there is a body diode current flowing through, because the pmos tube will be higher than the supply voltage of the standby power supply, the Vgs of the pmos tube is greater than 0, so the body diode of the pmos tube is cut off. The output end of the power supply switching circuit 43 is supplied by the main power supply. When the main power supply is out of time, the pmos tube is turned on. The output end of the power supply switching circuit 43 is supplied by the standby power supply.

In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 6 two isolated signal channels are designed on the communication backboard (one of which is shown in Figure 6 The signal isolation module U1 can adopt an optoelectronic isolation module, a capacitive isolation module, an inductive isolation module, or other communication isolation modules. The signal isolation module U1 effectively reduces the interference between signals and improves the accuracy and stability of signal transmission. The backboard provides two isolated signal channels for real-time feedback of system status or monitoring of key indicators such as temperature, voltage, current, fan speed, etc. When abnormal conditions are detected, the signal channel can feed back to the monitoring system in time, so as to perform early warning and fault diagnosis.

The chassis internal communication backboard scheme in the present application can support LVDS high-speed communication, ensure clock synchronization of the system, realize dual power supply redundancy, and provide signal isolation and monitoring functions. Through the differential communication with strong anti-interference ability and the clock synchronization mechanism, the communication between the main control module 10 and all sub-modules 20 is efficient and synchronized. The cooperative work of accurate distribution of clock signals and differential communication signals with strong anti-interference ability can ensure stable transmission of data and avoid delay or packet loss phenomenon, so as to improve the signal quality of transmitted data.
