SYSTEM AND METHOD TO CONTROL REDUNDANT POWER SUPPLIES SELECTION

摘要

A system for controlling the connection of a receiving device to a main or a redundant power supply is provided. The system typically comprises a power supply voltage comparator, a reference voltage detector and a polarity detector to determine error voltage conditions from the main or from the redundant power supply. A decision circuit generates thereby a control signal to allow the connection of the receiver device to the appropriate power supply through the activation of a switch device.
