In an always-connected world, data servers operate 24/7, ensuring seamless digital communication and supporting mission-critical applications. From cloud computing to emergency services, healthcare systems, and air traffic control, any power failure can lead to costly downtime or even catastrophic consequences. To prevent disruptions, server stations rely on battery backup systems, typically operating at 24V or 48V DC, to maintain uninterrupted operation.
Powering Backup Systems with Efficient Voltage Conversion
Battery management and charging circuits require precise voltage regulation to supply 5V or 3.3V—the standard voltages for microcontrollers. A buck converter is commonly used for this purpose, utilizing a MOSFET and a Schottky diode to efficiently step down the voltage while minimizing power losses.
Schottky diodes are preferred for their low forward voltage drop and high switching efficiency, ensuring minimal heat dissipation and maximum reliability. However, selecting the right Schottky diode is crucial. The reverse voltage rating should be three to six times higher than the DC input voltage to prevent voltage spikes from exceeding its limits.
