摘要:
In one embodiment a memory controller is provided. The memory controller comprises a predictive logic circuit to predict an increase in a current operating temperature of a memory device coupled to the memory controller, based on memory cycles to be issued to the memory device; and a temperature control circuit to perform a temperature control operation wherein if the sum of the current operating temperature and the predicted increase in temperature is greater than a threshold temperature associated with the memory device, then the number of memory cycles issued to the memory device is reduced.

Video analytics may be used to assist video encoding by selectively encoding only portions of a frame and using, instead, previously encoded portions. Previously encoded portions may be used when succeeding frames have a level of motion less than a threshold. In such case, all or part of succeeding frames may not be encoded, increasing bandwidth and speed in some embodiments.

Thermal management and communication is described in the context of memory modules that contain several memory devices. In one example, the invention includes determining a temperature of a first memory device, the first memory device containing a plurality of memory cells, determining a temperature of a second memory device after determining the temperature of the first memory device, the second memory device containing a plurality of memory cells, and generating an alarm based on an evaluation of the first and the second temperatures. In another example, the invention includes detecting a thermal event on a memory device of a memory module that contains a plurality of memory devices, detecting the state of an event bus of the memory module, and sending an alert on the event bus if the event bus is in an unoccupied state.

Various methods, apparatuses, and systems are described in which a chipset controller has circuitry to control communications with a peripheral device in a computing device. The chipset controller has logic configured 1) to detect a plug-in event when the peripheral device connects to the chipset controller and 2) to transition the chipset controller from a low power consumption state to a higher power consumption state based on the logic detecting the plug-in event.
摘要:
A power management system for a computing platform is described. In one embodiment, the power management system provides additional device states which the device controllers of the platform assume when the device controllers are operational but idle. These additional device states are states in which the device controller commits to certain types of inactivity. In another embodiment, the power management system provides additional platform modes which guarantee processor inactivity and/or deference of particular platform events while the mode is in effect.

In one embodiment, a method includes periodically charging a capacitor mounted on an electronic component; initializing a timer to count down from a counter value, once the capacitor is charged; determining if the capacitor has discharged before the timer has counted down to zero; and if the capacitor has discharged before the timer has counted down to zero then generating an interrupt.

Data regarding physical parameters and security and commands to send such data can be communicated between a memory device and a memory controller using a memory bus connected between the two. In one embodiment, the invention includes receiving a first command at a memory device on a memory bus, the first command being other than a read or write command, and receiving a second command together with the first command, the second command to be initiated using lines that are not used by the first command.
