Intelligent power supply

Abstract

An intelligent power supply is described. The intelligent power supply includes a case, a circuit board, a fan, a detecting module, and an alarm module. The circuit board transforms an alternating current from a main supply to a direct current for an electronic equipment. The fan reduces the operating temperature of the intelligent power supply and can also reduce the operating temperature of the electronic equipment. The detecting module detects the operating status of the intelligent power supply and the alarm module sends out an alarm signal when the operating status is abnormal.
