Abstract: One embodiment provides an apparatus. The apparatus includes power control logic and a critical comparator. The power control logic is to determine a critical threshold (TC) based, at least in part, on an available input power value (Pin). The critical comparator is to compare a system power consumption value (Psys) and the critical threshold and to assert a processor critical throttle signal to a processor if the system power consumption value is greater than or equal to the critical threshold.
