Hello everyone, today we will learn about the introduction of the standby power supply circuit

2

00:00:04,966 --> 00:00:07,266

during the startup process of the laptop

3

00:00:10,133 --> 00:00:13,500

First, let's take a look at the workflow of the standby chip

4

00:00:13,900 --> 00:00:18,800

The first step in the standby chip workflow, first it needs to get the main power supply

5

00:00:19,266 --> 00:00:24,500

After the common point voltage is normal, provide a main power supply to the standby chip

6

00:00:25,366 --> 00:00:31,266

At the same time, a linear turn-on signal is generated by voltage division or other methods

7

00:00:31,266 --> 00:00:34,300

to provide the turn-on signal for the LDO module

8

00:00:35,666 --> 00:00:39,766

Then after the chip gets the main power supply and the linear turn-on signal,

9

00:00:40,033 --> 00:00:45,200

it will control to generate 3.3V linear and 5V linear output

10

00:00:45,966 --> 00:00:52,266

Among them, the 3.3V LDO linear power supply will provide standby power to the EC

11

00:00:53,700 --> 00:00:56,633

Then the internal clock of the EC starts to work

12

00:00:57,900 --> 00:01:01,866

The standby power supply will delay to generate the EC standby reset,

13

00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,833

or the reset is generated internally by EC

14

00:01:05,066 --> 00:01:08,700

Then EC will read the program and configure its own pins

15

00:01:10,100 --> 00:01:14,900

After the conditions are met, the EC will send an open signal to open the PWM

16

00:01:16,066 --> 00:01:19,000

This 5V linear powers the PWM core

17

00:01:19,933 --> 00:01:22,466

Because when the PWM is working in the future,

18

00:01:22,566 --> 00:01:26,400

its boot pin bootstrap boost needs this 5V as the bootstrap base voltage

19

00:01:35,466 --> 00:01:41,166

The 5V pulse output by the lower tube driver also needs this 5V linear power supply

20

00:01:44,833 --> 00:01:49,933

There are still many modules inside the chip that need to use this 5V linear power supply

21

00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,833

Then after the EC sends the open signal,

22

00:01:54,233 --> 00:01:57,533

it will control and generate two PWM outputs.

23

00:01:59,866 --> 00:02:05,033

Among them, the PWM output voltage of 3.3V will provide power

24

00:02:05,033 --> 00:02:08,633

for the deep sleep standby or main standby of the bridge

25

00:02:13,466 --> 00:02:19,000

Most of the 5V PWM output voltage is to provide power to some power supply chips,

26

00:02:19,833 --> 00:02:25,600

such as USB power supply, CPU power supply, memory power supply, etc.

27

00:02:26,833 --> 00:02:31,900

These power supply chips need to use this 5V PWM to provide the main power supply

28

00:02:33,266 --> 00:02:34,933

Well, overall speaking,

29

00:02:35,133 --> 00:02:39,033

the working process of the standby chip is to have the main power supply first,

30

00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,166

and then have a linear turn-on signal

31

00:02:46,033 --> 00:02:48,900

After that, there will be a linear output,

32

00:02:49,366 --> 00:02:53,233

and then supply power to the PWM core after the linear output.

33

00:02:53,433 --> 00:02:59,066

After the chip gets the open signal, it will control the generation of PWM power supply output,

34

00:02:59,566 --> 00:03:01,866

and finally generate the PG signal

35

00:03:02,466 --> 00:03:04,533

This is the workflow of the standby chip

36

00:03:04,833 --> 00:03:08,566

The whole LDO and PWM part are integrated in one chip

37

00:03:11,033 --> 00:03:17,500

Next, we take the TPS51125 standby chip as an example to introduce its working process

38

00:03:18,366 --> 00:03:22,066

First briefly introduce the definition of the pin

39

00:03:24,433 --> 00:03:29,400

The first pin ENTRIP1 and the sixth pin ENTRIP2

40

00:03:30,233 --> 00:03:32,333

These two pins are open pins,

41

00:03:32,566 --> 00:03:37,466

which are the opening of the PWM and the limit current setting of the two PWMs

42

00:03:40,366 --> 00:03:44,000

Because it controls a PWM power supply output on the left

43

00:03:44,233 --> 00:03:47,566

and controls a PWM power supply output on the right

44

00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,533

which is called dual PWM controller,

45

00:03:51,033 --> 00:03:56,200

which is a very common 3.3V and 5V standby power supply chip in laptops

46

00:03:56,900 --> 00:04:01,100

The second and fifth pins are PWM feedback pins FB

47

00:04:04,466 --> 00:04:09,400

The third pin, VREF, is a reference voltage and a linear output

48

00:04:10,300 --> 00:04:13,033

The fourth pin is TON frequency setting

49

00:04:14,133 --> 00:04:21,233

The 24th pin and the 7th pin are VO pins, which are the voltage detection input pins of two PWMs

50

00:04:22,266 --> 00:04:26,533

The 8th pin VREG3 is a 3.3V linear output

51

00:04:27,166 --> 00:04:33,700

The 9th pin VBOOT2 and the 22nd pin VBOOT1, two bootstrap boost pins

52

00:04:38,733 --> 00:04:45,233

DRVH is the upper tube drive, DRVL is the lower tube drive, LL is the phase pin

53

00:04:46,700 --> 00:04:48,033

Here is the same

54

00:04:48,633 --> 00:04:54,400

DRVH and DRVL are upper and lower tube drivers, phase pins, etc.

55

00:04:54,833 --> 00:04:59,300

The above PG is PGOOD, which is generally an open-drain output

56

00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,200

The bottom EN0 is linear open

57

00:05:03,133 --> 00:05:06,166

SKIPSEL is the working mode setting

58

00:05:09,900 --> 00:05:13,833

GND is the ground, VIN is the main power supply of this chip

59

00:05:14,133 --> 00:05:17,133

VREG5 is a linear output of 5V

60

00:05:17,633 --> 00:05:22,100

VCLK is the clock, its clock is equivalent to the drive of the lower tube,

61

00:05:25,666 --> 00:05:28,666

and the output is used for external bootstrap boost

62

00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,133

Well, let's take a look at it

63

00:05:33,500 --> 00:05:36,633

To work, a chip must first get the main power supply,

64

00:05:36,900 --> 00:05:41,633

and the power supply input from 5V to 28V is provided externally

65

00:05:42,133 --> 00:05:44,333

Then it needs to get an open signal

66

00:05:46,333 --> 00:05:50,700

This is a linear open signal, usually from an external voltage division

67

00:05:52,233 --> 00:05:56,600

With the linear open signal, it will first generate a 2V reference,

68

00:05:57,066 --> 00:06:01,166

and then generate a 5V linear and a 3.3V linear

69

00:06:02,133 --> 00:06:07,966

Among them, the 3.3V linear voltage will provide standby power supply to EC,

70

00:06:08,333 --> 00:06:10,833

and provide standby conditions for EC

71

00:06:11,100 --> 00:06:14,666

Most of the 5V linear voltage is used inside the chip

72

00:06:15,833 --> 00:06:18,933

Then, after receiving the open signal sent from the outside,

73

00:06:19,133 --> 00:06:22,466

it controls the generation of two PWM outputs

74

00:06:24,866 --> 00:06:26,633

The open signal is like this

75

00:06:27,033 --> 00:06:32,466

The ENTRIP1 and ENTRIP2 are externally grounded through resistors,

76

00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,866

and are also connected to two N-channel MOS tubes

77

00:06:36,300 --> 00:06:39,066

If the two MOS tubes are turned on and grounded,

78

00:06:39,266 --> 00:06:44,300

then these two pins will become 0V, and the PWM output will be turned off

79

00:06:45,666 --> 00:06:50,233

Therefore, the two MOS tubes connected externally must be cut off

80

00:06:52,733 --> 00:06:56,300

This is generally controlled by the high level sent by the EC,

81

00:06:56,766 --> 00:07:01,900

which pulls down the G poles of the two MOS tubes and makes the MOS tubes cut off

82

00:07:04,500 --> 00:07:12,266

ENTRIP1 and ENTRIP2, the first pin and the sixth pin are pulled up by 5V linear voltage inside the chip,

83

00:07:12,833 --> 00:07:19,466

and then form a series voltage divider with an external pull-down resistor to turn on the two PWM outputs

84

00:07:19,733 --> 00:07:23,033

Usually the voltage of these two pins is around 2V,

85

00:07:24,233 --> 00:07:26,466

After the two-way PWM output,

86

00:07:26,933 --> 00:07:33,066

it will pass through the VO pin and the FB pin to be detected whether the two output voltages are normal

87

00:07:37,533 --> 00:07:43,633

When the two power supply outputs are stable, the PG signal is output from the PGOOD pin open drain

88

00:07:47,033 --> 00:07:49,466

Ok, this is the workflow of the standby chip
