Shelf PowerSPWBP

Functions SPWBP combines two –48 V power supplies (which are mutuallybacked up) into one and provides ZXSS10 SS1b with –48 V powersupply. It also performs filtering, lightning protection, and anti-reverse-connection on two –48 V inputs, and selects and controlstwo –48 V power supplies by using air breaker.

SPWBP consists of a filter, a POWI, an air breaker, and a lightningarrester.

Working Principle Anti-EMI filtering circuit can:

1. Effectively filters the conducted interference of within theZXSS10 SS1b system. Thus the conducted interference valuemeasured at the input end of the power distribution boxreduced greatly.

2. Improves the anti-interference capability of the system andreduces the electromagnetic sensitivity of the system.

TPOWP

Functions TPOWP provides ZXSS10 SS1b with a backup line of –60 V powersupply. It also performs filtering, lightning protection, and air-cooling control.

Working Principle SPWBP consists of a POWI and a TPOWT.

1. POWI: When configuring two –60 V power inputs on the rack,segregate the two inputs by using the segregating diode andthen parallel the outputs to the copper bus-bar to power thedevice. Two –60 V power inputs functions as hot backup mu-tually.

2. TPOWP: Monitoring the output voltage and the running statusof power box in real-time.

Figure 37 illustrates the working principle of TPOWP.

FIGURE 37 WORKING PRINCIPLE OF TPOW

Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 41

ZXSS10 SS1b Hardware Description

SPWBF

Functions SPWBF monitors the following in real-time:

� Voltage value of –48 V power supply (combined of two –48 Vpower supplies) output by power distribution box.

� Power supply of the system (including status of left and rightpower supplies, over/under voltage of right and left power sup-plies, and working status of the ventilation system)

� Operation status of fans.

Working Principle SPWFB consists of a TPOWT and four 48 V fans.

Detection circuit of TPOWT adopts a single-chip microcomputersystem. It converts analog voltage to 12-bit serial digital signalthrough A/D transformer and inputs signal to I/O port of CPU. CPUprocesses signal, implementing real-time monitoring of -48 V out-put voltage.

I/O port of CPU monitors the fan status (normal/abnormal) in real-time. Because coil circuit in fan is easily broken, a rectifying diodeis concatenated to each channel, and comparator is used to de-tect the voltage at the two ends of the rectifier bulb to check thatwhether the fan circuit is broken.

When a fan is damaged, the fuse of the fan is burnt. As a result,there is no current on diode, and the fan fault can be detected.

When any fan fails, indicator on the front panel gives an alarm.In addition, CPU reports voltage value of A/D conversion result for-48 V output and working status of fan through 485 bus.

Working principle of TPOWT is illustrated in following Figure 38.

SPOWB

Functions SPOWB provides ZXSS10 SS1b with +3.3 V/150 A and –5 V/80 ADC power supplies. It ensures that the boards in the front partof the system are ventilated. It also reports power supply outputmonitoring alarms and fan status to the system.

Two SPOWBs work in the active and standby mode. Each SPOWBcan provide full power and monitoring alarm functions required byZXSS10 SS1b. As a result, the operation of ZXSS10 SS1b will notbe interrupted if any of the two SPOWBs fails.

Working Principle SS1b adopts 1+1 redundant centralized power supply mode.+3.3 V/150 A and –5 V/80 A power supplies are provided by oneof the two SPOWBs. In normal conditions, active and standbySPOWBs work in a load-sharing mode. If one SPOWB fails, thefaulty board becomes offline automatically, and other SPOWBsupplies the whole system with power.

A single SPOWB is able to supply power for the whole tandemgateway.

SPOWB provides soft start unction, which is implemented byPOWMS. It can reduce the impact caused by power supply whensystem is powered on.

Input end is designed with over-voltage protection and reverseconnection protection, which are also implemented by POWMS.

POWMS is designed with monitoring circuit to monitor the outputvoltage. Once over/under voltage occurs, POWMS sends alarmsto alarm indicator on the front panel of POWIS, and informs thebackground through the 485 communication link. Input end ofeach power supply module in TPOW has 15A fuse. Once short cir-cuit occurs, –48 V input will be interrupted immediately, avoidingserious accident.

Input loop of primary power supply is equipped with a –48 V/50, afilter to eliminate the common-mode noise and differential-modenoise generated by the power supply module. Common-modeswitch noise is major source of noise. It is key to reduce in-put and output noise if common-mode switch noise can be elim-inated successfully. Common-mode capacitances with high over-pressure resistance and good high frequency features are installedbetween protection ground and input/output end of each powersupply module in TPOW to further reduce input and out ripple noiseand peak surge.

Figure 39 illustrates the working principle of SPOWB.
