20110302429 | SERVER RACK SYSTEM - A rack system for a server includes a number of server units, which includes first to the third sets of server units, voltage converter, first to third power supply circuits. The voltage converter receives and converters a three-phase alternating current (AC) power signal to provide first to third single-phase power signals. The first to the third sets of power supply circuits respectively provides first to third direct current (DC) power signals according to the first to the third single-phase power signals. The first set to the third set of server units is respectively powered by first to the third DC power signals or respectively powered by first part, second part, and third part of the first to the third DC power signals. | 12-08-2011 |
20120327591 | RACK SERVER SYSTEM - A rack server system includes a number of server units and a rack. The rack server includes a back plane, a control module, a fan module and a power supply module. The back plane includes a number of slots, via which the server units are respectively connected to the back plane. The fan module is connected to the control module, and dissipates heat generated by the server units under the control of the control module. The power supply module is connected to the control module, and powers the server units under the control of the control module. | 12-27-2012 |
20130030735 | RACK SERVER SYSTEM AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - A rack server system and a control method thereof are provided. The rack server system establishes a communication link for communicating with a battery backup unit. The battery backup unit is connected to a power input port of the rack server system, and includes a number of battery modules connected with each other in parallel. The rack server system controls the battery backup unit to perform validity test on a first battery module during a first period and to perform validity test on a second battery module during a second period, wherein the first period and the second period are not overlapped with each other. | 01-31-2013 |
20130031381 | RACK SERVER SYSTEM - A rack server system including at least one server and a battery backup unit (BBU) is provided. A power supplier is coupled to the server for converting an input voltage into a first output voltage when the input voltage is normal and for providing the first output voltage to the server. The BBU is coupled to the server and the power supplier for detecting the first output voltage outputted from the power supplier and for providing a second output voltage to the server when the input voltage and/or the first output voltage are abnormal. | 01-31-2013 |
20130031382 | RACK SERVER SYSTEM AND OPERATION METHOD APPLICABLE THERETO - A rack server system and an operating method applicable thereto are provided. The rack server system includes a battery backup unit (BBU) and at least one server. The operating method includes: communicating the server and the BBU with each other; the BBU providing a status information and a previous self-discharging test information to the server for the server to judge a status of the BBU; and providing power from the BBU to the server and adjusting a loading of the server according to the status information of the BBU when an input power is interrupted. | 01-31-2013 |
20130039001 | SERVER SYSTEM - A server system includes a rack, a power supply module, a switch, and a plurality of servers. The rack can be divided into a plurality of rack units. The rack units are parallel to each other and vertically arranged. The power supply module and the switch are disposed in close proximity to each other in at least one of the rack units. The power supply is adjacent to the rear side of the rack. The switch is adjacent to the front side of the rack. Each of the servers is disposed in one of the other rack units and electrically connected to the power supply module and the switch. | 02-14-2013 |
20130227309 | SERVER SYSTEM - A server system is disclosed. The server system comprises a motherboard and a server power system. The server power system comprises a power transmission interface, a power supply, a battery backup unit (BBU) and a signal transmission interface. The power supply converts an AC power into a DC power and then outputs the DC power to the motherboard via the power transmission interface. The BBU provides parallel or redundant power to the motherboard via the power transmission interface. The BBU and the power supply have the same size. The signal transmission interface is electrically connected to the motherboard, the power supply and the BBU. | 08-29-2013 |
20130227310 | SERVER POWER SYSTEM - A power server system is disclosed. The power server system comprises a power transmission interface, a power supply and a battery backup unit (BBU). The power supply converts an AC power into a DC power and outputs the DC power to the power transmission interface. After the AC power is disconnected, the power supply continues outputting the DC power in a holding period having an arising period and a current sharing period. The BBU outputs a redundant power to the power transmission interface before the power supply stop outputting the DC power. The BBU boosts the voltage level of the redundant power in the arising period, and controls the voltage level of the redundant power to be the same with that of the DC power in the current sharing period, so that the battery output inrush current is reduced and the battery life is extended. | 08-29-2013 |
20140281646 | POWER MANAGEMENT METHOD FOR SERVER SYSTEM - A power management method for a server system is provided. At least any one of a power status indication signal and an alert signal from a power supply is detected to judge whether an input voltage is normal. If it is judged that the input voltage is abnormal, a motherboard sends the power status indication signal to a battery backup unit (BBU) to inform the BBU to supply power to the motherboard. If it is judged that the input voltage is abnormal, the motherboard lowers its loading. | 09-18-2014 |
20150039918 | RACK SERVER SYSTEM AND OPERATION METHOD APPLICABLE THERETO - A rack server system and an operating method applicable thereto are provided. The rack server system includes a battery backup unit (BBU) and at least one server. The operating method includes: communicating the server and the BBU with each other; the BBU providing a status information and a previous self-discharging test information to the server for the server to judge a status of the BBU; and providing power from the BBU to the server and adjusting a loading of the server according to the status information of the BBU when an input power is interrupted. | 02-05-2015 |
