ABSTRACT:
A power control device of a computer system uses a universal serial bus (USB) hub for power control of a display monitor. The power control device includes: a rectifying section for converting an AC power of the display device into a DC voltage; a main SMPS (Switching Mode Power Supply) for supplying power to the display monitor after the DC voltage is switched and rectified; a microcomputer for determining the status of a power save mode to control the switching operation of the main SMPS; an auxiliary SMPS for supplying the power to the microcomputer when no power has been supplied from the USB hub; an auxiliary OFF controller for interrupting the operation of the auxiliary SMPS when the power has been applied from the USB hub; and an OFF controller for interrupting the operation of the main SMPS to execute a power OFF mode according to a DPMS.
