Abstract

The invention discloses an adjusting and optimizing method utilizing PID to achieve fluctuations of CPU and internal storage VR output voltage. CPU and internal storage VR output voltage can be adjusted via adjustments of parameters of PID in the CPU and an internal storage main chip, so the CPU and internal storage VR output voltage can be always remained in a small fluctuant range under various load conditions; and server system power supplying stability can be enhanced. R&D engineers can adjust fluctuations of CPU and internal storage VR output voltage without welding an element component via a solder and only requiring PID parameter adjustments on a software interface of a digital power supply, so debugging efficiency of the engineers can be improved and R&D period is shortened; PID adjustments and VR bode diagram measurements are combined to achieve optimized PID parameters, so stability of the CPU and internal storage VR output voltage of the server in all user application scenes can be guaranteed and product quality is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of general server power supply, in particular to a method for optimizing the output voltage fluctuation of CPU and memory VR by using PID, and a method for ensuring the stability of the output voltage of mainboard CPU and memory VR. Background technique [0002] In a server system, the functional units with the fastest load changes are mainly concentrated in the CPU and memory. The current of the CPU and memory loads changes greatly, and the frequency of the change is very complicated, which leads to complex fluctuations in the VR power supply voltage of the CPU and memory. The fluctuations of these two VR voltages often have a fatal impact on the stability of the server system, causing blue screens and downtime failures in the user system. [0003] General-purpose servers have particularly stringent requirements on system stability. Because the general-purpose server is oriented to a large number of custo...
