Computer Motherboard Power Principle

Boot principle:
Plug in the ATX power is, there is a static 5V voltage sent to the South Bridge, the South Bridge to
mention inside the ATX Power Circuit 
For the working conditions (ATX power supply start circuit is integrated inside the South Bridge), South
Bridge ATX inside the circuit will start to boot 
Work, will send a voltage to the crystal, crystal oscillator from the work of oscillation, given waveform.
At the same time ATX Power circuits 
Submit a boot voltage to the motherboard boot needle cap a foot, another foot grounding pin cap.
When you open the boot switch, the 
Boot needle cap connected to two feet, leaving South bridge start sending short-circuit voltage on the
ground, down South Bridge sent boot voltage, leaving 
South Bridge circuit conduction inside the boot to pull down the static 5V voltage, so that it becomes 0
potential. Power supply to work, so as to achieve 
Purpose boot. (ATX power supply there are still a part of the regulator, it needs a static potential of 0
to 5V into work).
