SERVER WITH POWER SOURCE PROTECTION SYSTEM AND POWER SOURCE PROTECTION METHOD

摘要

A server with a power source protection system and a method thereof are provided herein, in which the server includes a power-controlling device and a hard disk drive connector. The power-controlling device includes an input unit that receives an input voltage, an output unit that outputs a load voltage, a switching unit coupled between the input unit and the output unit, and a processor coupled to the switching unit. The processor monitors a load current and controls the switching unit to turn on or off an output of the load voltage. The hard disk drive connector coupled to the output unit receives the load voltage. When the bad current exceeds a predetermined current value, the processor turns off the switching unit for a cut-off period and retries to turn on the switching unit after the cut-off period so as to output the load voltage.

1. A server with a power source protection system, the server comprising:
a power-controlling device, comprising:
an input unit configured to receive an input voltage;an output unit configured to output a load voltage;a switching unit coupled between the input unit and the output unit; anda processor coupled to the switching unit and configured to monitor a load current and control the switching unit to turn on or off an output of the load voltage; and a hard disk drive connector coupled to the output unit and configured to receive the load voltage; wherein when the load current exceeds a predetermined current value, the processor turns off the switching unit for a cut-off period; and after the cut-off period, the processor retries to turn on the switching unit to output the load voltage.
