Power Supply Module

The blade is fed via two redundant −48V inputs. Both are converted via a DC/DC
converter to an intermediate voltage of +12V. This voltage, in turn, is converted via
further DC/DC converters to on−board voltages which are used by the on−board devices.
A −48V/+3.3V DC/DC converter converts the −48V input voltage to +3.3V which is used
to feed the IPMC and power−up logic.

The blade

′s power up and power down cycles are under full control of the IPMC. It

controls both the −48V/+12V DC/DC converter as well as power−up logic which controls
the remaining on−board DC/DC converters. If the IPMC detects a failure on any of the
local on−board voltages, it shuts off the entire blade power.
