Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A server system having an auto-reset mechanism is provided. The server system comprises a power control circuit, a power processing circuit, a CPLD and a control circuit. The power control circuit generates a control signal. The power processing circuit operates according to the control signal to receive a first power and generate a second power. The CPLD receives the second power and operates accordingly and generates a power reset signal when the CPLD finishes a update process. The control circuit controls the power control circuit to stop to generate the control signal to turn off the power processing circuit to further disable the CPLD in a certain time period according to the power reset signal and controls the power control circuit to activate the power processing circuit to further activate and reset the CPLD after the certain time period.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An auto-reset method applied to a server system, comprising: making a power control circuit of the server system operate to generate a control signal; making a power processing circuit of the server system operate according to the control signal to receive a first power source and generate a second power source; making a CPLD of the server system receive the second power source and operate accordingly; making a function circuit module of the server rec…
