Abstract: Examples of the disclosure are directed to a method of, after hitting a UVLO threshold, rebooting an electronic device in a low power mode having a lower UVLO threshold, such that the device can continue to be used past the first UVLO threshold. For example, in a high power mode, the device may be capable of a number of functionalities of a modern portable electronic device, such as network access, the ability to run applications, Bluetooth connections, etc. In a low power mode, the device may only be able to check and display a current time, play an alarm sound at a predefined time, perform near field communication (NFC) transactions/payments, among other possibilities described herein. The limited functionality and reduced usage of peripherals in the low power mode may prevent the battery from experiencing peaks in current level that may be problematic at relatively low levels of voltage.

Abstract translation: 本公开的示例涉及在击中UVLO阈值之后以具有较低UVLO阈值的低功率模式重新启动电子设备的方法,使得该设备可以继续使用超过第一UVLO阈值。 例如,在高功率模式下,该设备可以具有现代便携式电子设备的许多功能,诸如网络接入,运行应用的能力,蓝牙连接等。在低功率模式下,设备 可能只能检查和显示当前时间,在预定义的时间播放闹钟声音,执行近场通信(NFC)交易/支付以及此处描述的其他可能性。 在低功率模式下,外围设备的有限功能和减少的使用可能会阻止电池在电流水平上出现峰值,这在相对低的电压水平下可能是有问题的。

Abstract: A portable computing device includes at least a base portion of a lightweight material that includes at least a wedge shaped top case having a trough formed at an interfacing edge thereof. The trough includes a raised portion having a first contact surface and a receiving area, and a bottom case coupled to the top case to form a complete housing for at least a portion of the portable computing device for enclosing at least a plurality of operational components and a plurality of structural components. The portable computing device also includes at least a lid portion pivotally connected to the base portion by a hinge assembly. In the described embodiments, the lid portion has a display in communication with one or more of the plurality of components in the base portion by way of or more electrical conductors that electrically connect the base portion to the lid portion.
