    Abstract: A method and system for dynamically allocating power resources. The system includes a central controller connected to automatic transfer switches. The system also includes power zones. Each of the power zones includes server devices. Each of the automatic transfer switches are connected to at least one of the power zones. The system also includes a power pool connected to a power source. The power pool is connected to the central controller configured to dynamically allocate power of the power pool to the power zones.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for dynamically defining a specific input pin of a management controller (e.g., a baseboard management controller (BMC)) of a server system in response to a new device being plugged into the server system. The new device comprises one of a power supply unit (PSU), an automatic transfer switch (ATS), or a battery backup unit (BBU) of the server system. In some implementations, the PSU, the ATS, and the BBU are modularized into a plurality of ATS modules, a plurality of PSU modules, and a plurality of BBU modules, respectively. Each of the plurality of ATS modules, the plurality of PSU modules, and the plurality of BBU modules has substantially the same physical size.

    Abstract: Various examples of the present disclosure provide a high efficient battery backup (BBU) system and systems and methods for managing the BBU system through a microcontroller unit (MCU) and an ORing FET system of the BBU system. In some examples, a baseboard management controller (BMC) of a server system is used to control the MCU and the ORing FET system of the BBU system such that the BBU system can operate in multiple operating modes without a battery discharger. The operating modes of the BBU system includes, but are not limited to, a battery constant-current-charging mode, a battery constant-voltage-charging mode, a battery discharging mode, or a battery capacity calibration mode.

    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present technology provide methods for calibrating a full-charge capacity of a battery system. In some implementations, the battery system can be caused to enter into a static learning mode. During the static learning mode, current and past battery cell characteristics for each battery cell of the battery system can be collected, analyzed, and used to build up or update a database of correlations between a full-charge capacity of a specific type of battery cell and cell characteristics of a corresponding type of battery cell. The full-charge capacity of the battery system can be determined based at least upon cell characteristics of battery cells of the battery system, or the database of correlations between a full-charge capacity of a specific type of battery cell and cell characteristics of battery cells in the battery system.

    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present technology provide methods for determining a status of power supplies to a server system and dynamically managing an uninterruptible power system (UPS) of the server system between an off-line mode and an on-line mode based upon the status of the power supplies. The UPS requires a minimum standby power during the off-line mode while requires no switch time to continuously supply power to loads of the server system during the on-line mode. Some embodiments determine a status of an AC input power to a server system and, in response to detecting an abnormal condition associated with the AC input power, generate a power warning signal. The power warning signal can cause an UPS of the server system to be switched from an off-line mode to an on-line mode.
