The host 100 performs a backup procedure. It is to be noted that, in this embodiment, the host 100 can start the backup process according to the sleep signal to store the backup data in the first storage unit 130.

於本實施例中,主機100還可經由備份電源電路120電性連接於外接式電源模組200,用以提供充電電源P2至外接式電源模組200。具體而言,當備份電源電路120接收外部供電系統所提供之外部電源時,且可充電電池210之儲存電量小於一預設值,例如未達滿電狀態時,主機100經由備份電源電路120提供充電電源P2至外接式電源模組200,以對可充電電池210充電,使可充電電池210之儲存電量到達預設值。於本實施例中,電壓偵測單元121用以偵測主機100之電源供應狀態,當主機100電源供應正常時,電壓偵測單元121還可控制主機100提供充電電源P2至外接式電源模組200。例如,當主機100電源供應正常時,電壓偵測單元121可輸出充電致能訊號至主機100,使主機100 依據充電致能訊號提供充電電源P2,以對可充電電池210充電。In this embodiment, the host 100 can also be electrically connected to the external power module 200 via the backup power circuit 120 to provide the charging power source P2 to the external power module 200. Specifically, when the backup power circuit 120 receives the external power supply provided by the external power supply system, and the stored power of the rechargeable battery 210 is less than a preset value, for example, when the power is not reached, the host 100 is provided via the backup power circuit 120. The charging power source P2 is connected to the external power module 200 to charge the rechargeable battery 210, so that the stored power of the rechargeable battery 210 reaches a preset value. In this embodiment, the voltage detecting unit 121 is configured to detect the power supply status of the host 100. When the power supply of the host 100 is normal, the voltage detecting unit 121 can also control the host 100 to provide the charging power P2 to the external power module. 200. For example, when the power supply of the host 100 is normal, the voltage detecting unit 121 can output a charging enable signal to the host 100, so that the host 100 The charging power source P2 is provided according to the charging enable signal to charge the rechargeable battery 210.

值得一提的是,供電選擇單元122可因應電壓偵測單元121之控制而切換。詳細而言,備份電源電路120可經由供電選擇單元122傳送常態電源P3給主機板110,以使主機100之電源供應正常。例如,備份電源電路120可將外部電源系統所提供之外部電源,藉由供電選擇單元122之整流、濾波以及轉換後,而輸出常態電源P3至主機板110,以使主機100之電源供應正常。同時,亦即當主機100電源供應正常時,主機100可經由備份電源電路120提供充電電源P2至外接式電源模組200,以對可充電電池210充電。另一方面,當主機100電源供應異常時,例如外部電源系統中斷或異常時,備份電源電路120之供電選擇單元122可進行切換,以將外接式電源模組200提供之備份電源P1升降壓或轉換,而輸出至主機板110。It is worth mentioning that the power supply selection unit 122 can be switched according to the control of the voltage detection unit 121. In detail, the backup power circuit 120 can transmit the normal power P3 to the motherboard 110 via the power supply selection unit 122 to make the power supply of the host 100 normal. For example, the backup power supply circuit 120 can output the normal power P3 to the motherboard 110 by rectifying, filtering, and converting the external power supply provided by the external power supply system, so that the power supply of the host 100 is normal. At the same time, when the power supply of the host 100 is normal, the host 100 can provide the charging power source P2 to the external power module 200 via the backup power circuit 120 to charge the rechargeable battery 210. On the other hand, when the power supply of the host 100 is abnormal, for example, when the external power supply system is interrupted or abnormal, the power supply selection unit 122 of the backup power supply circuit 120 can perform switching to boost or lower the backup power supply P1 provided by the external power supply module 200. The conversion is output to the motherboard 110.

也就是說,當備份電源電路120接收外部供電系統所提供之外部電源時,備份電源電路120傳送常態電源P3給主機板110。也就是說,當主機100電源供應正常時,主機板110藉由常態電源P3得以運作。具體而言,當備份電源電路120經由供電選擇單元122接收外部供電系統所提供之外部電源時,備份電源電路120經由供電選擇單元122傳送常態電源P3給主機板110。That is, when the backup power supply circuit 120 receives the external power supply provided by the external power supply system, the backup power supply circuit 120 transmits the normal power supply P3 to the motherboard 110. That is to say, when the power supply of the host 100 is normal, the motherboard 110 is operated by the normal power source P3. Specifically, when the backup power supply circuit 120 receives the external power supply provided by the external power supply system via the power supply selection unit 122, the backup power supply circuit 120 transmits the normal power supply P3 to the motherboard 110 via the power supply selection unit 122.

當主機100電源供應異常時,例如當外部供電系統斷電或停電,或者當備份電源電路120停止接收外部供電系統所提供之外部電源時,備份電源電路120經由供電選擇單元122切換傳送外接式電源模組200所提供的備份電源P1給主機板110。也就是說,當主機100電源供應異常時,主機板110藉由外接式電源模組200得以運作。When the power supply of the host 100 is abnormal, for example, when the external power supply system is powered off or powered off, or when the backup power supply circuit 120 stops receiving the external power supply provided by the external power supply system, the backup power supply circuit 120 switches to transmit the external power supply via the power supply selection unit 122. The backup power source P1 provided by the module 200 is supplied to the motherboard 110. That is to say, when the power supply of the host 100 is abnormal, the motherboard 110 is operated by the external power module 200.

Specifically, when the power supply of the host 100 is abnormal, the voltage detecting unit 121 controls the external power supply module 200 to provide the backup power P1 to the motherboard 110, and the voltage detecting unit 121 outputs the sleep signal to the motherboard 110. The host 100 performs a backup procedure. It is worth mentioning that the host 100 starts the backup process according to the sleep signal to store the backup data outside the first storage unit 130, and further stores the backup data in the second storage unit 220. For example, after the sleep signal is sent to the motherboard 110 by the software setting, the operating system automatically puts the computer 100a into a sleep state, that is, includes causing the host 100 to perform a backup process to store the backup data in the first storage. The unit 130 is also stored in the second storage unit 220.

此外,於其他實施例中,當外接式電源模組200之可充電電池210的之儲存電量小於一預設值,例如小於10伏特,外接式電源模組200可停止提供外接電源至一般行動電子裝置,以使可充電電池210之儲存電量能隨時保持在安全儲電量。所述安全儲電量表示主機100進行備份程序所需之最小電源值;亦即,當可充電電池210之儲存電量保持在此安全儲電量,在主機100電源供應異常時,外接式電源模組200能夠提供備份電源P1至主機板110,並使主機100進行備份程序。如此,可大幅地降低因停電或斷電所造成的損害。In addition, in other embodiments, when the stored power of the rechargeable battery 210 of the external power module 200 is less than a predetermined value, for example, less than 10 volts, the external power module 200 can stop providing external power to the general mobile electronic The device is such that the stored capacity of the rechargeable battery 210 can be maintained at a safe storage capacity at any time. The safe power storage capacity represents the minimum power supply value required by the host 100 for the backup process; that is, when the storage power of the rechargeable battery 210 is maintained at the safe storage capacity, when the power supply of the host 100 is abnormal, the external power supply module 200 The backup power source P1 can be provided to the motherboard 110, and the host 100 can perform a backup procedure.
