Introduction
The power system comprises two main building blocks:
•
AC/DC Adaptor
- an external unit connected to the system's rear panel (see
).
•
DC/DC Power Supply Unit
- located inside and mounted to the bottom assembly, provides the
system with both Low Voltage and High Voltage power, and also enables recharging of the battery.
-
The Power Supply Unit controls the following main functions:
*
Input switching stage - selects between the external DC source and the internal battery
*
Back End Low Voltage power supply (LVPS)
*
Standby power supply
*
Front End Low Voltage power supply (LVPS)
*
Front End High Voltage power supply (HVPS)
*
Battery charger controlled by the Power Management controller
*
Control circuitry (used for monitoring, charger control and auxiliary functions).
*
The PS communicates with the host CPU via the SMBus
