Abstract
The present invention relates to a power output discharge circuit including: an output filter module configured to receive and filter an input voltage and to output the filtered output voltage to a load; an output charge module configured to charge the output filter module when a power source module is plugged into a system cabinet; and an output discharge module configured to cooperate with the output charge module to discharge the output filter module when the power source module is pulled out of the system cabinet. With an implementation of the power output discharge circuit according to the invention, whether the power source module is pulled out of the system cabinet can be monitored in real time, and upon detecting the power source module being pulled out of the system cabinet, the output discharge module can be started rapidly, and the voltage across the output port can be lowered below a safety voltage in a very short period of time.
