    Abstract: An apparatus and method for dynamically adjusting power limits for processing nodes and other components, such as peripheral interfaces, is disclosed. The apparatus includes multiple processing nodes and other components, and further includes a power management unit configured to set a first frequency limit for at least one of the processing nodes responsive to receiving an indication of a first detected temperature greater than a first temperature threshold. Initial power limits are set below guard-band power limits for components that do not have reliable reporting of power consumption or for cost or power saving reasons. The amount of throttling of processing nodes is used to adjust the power limits for the processing nodes and these components.

    Abstract: A system has a plurality of electronic components including a memory, a PHY coupled to the memory, and one or more other electronic components. Power consumed by the PHY is estimated during operation of the system. Estimating the power consumed by the PHY includes modeling the power consumed by the PHY as a linear function with respect to memory bandwidth. Available power for the PHY is determined based at least in part on the estimated power consumed by the PHY. At least a portion of the available power for the PHY is allocated to at least one of the one or more other components.

    Abstract: An operating point of one or more components in a processing device may be set using a leakage current estimated based on at least one of a rate of temperature overages or a rate of power overages. In some embodiments, a power management controller may be used to set an operating point of one or more components in the processing device based on at least one of a rate of temperature overages or a rate of power overages for the component(s).

    Abstract: A system and method for determining power-performance state transition thresholds in a computing system. A processor comprises several functional blocks and a power manager. Each of the functional blocks produces data corresponding to an activity level associated with the respective functional block. The power manager determines activity levels of the functional blocks and compares the activity level of a given functional block to a threshold to determine if a power-performance state (P-state) transition is indicated. The threshold is determined in part on a current P-state of the given functional block. When the current P-state of the given functional block is relatively high, the threshold activity level to transition to a higher P-state is higher than it would be if the current P-state were relatively low. The power manager is further configured to determine the thresholds based in part on one or more of a type of circuit being monitored and a type of workload being executed.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method for efficiently performing power management for increasing reliable wireless signal transfer performed by mobile computing devices. In various implementations, a computing system includes a network interface and multiple components for processing tasks. The network interface sends, to at least a given component of the multiple components, an indication specifying the corresponding operating frequency ranges used by one or more radio modules used for wireless communication with an access point. The given component determines whether an operating clock frequency of the given component overlaps any of the received operating frequency ranges and associated harmonic frequencies. If so, then the given component changes the operating clock frequency to a frequency that does not overlap any of the received operating frequency ranges and associated harmonic frequencies.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method for efficient power management of multiple integrated circuits. In various implementations, a computing system includes an integrated circuit with a security processor. The security processor determines the integrated circuit transitions to an active state from a sleep state that is not intended to maintain configuration information to return to the active state without restarting an operating system. In the sleep state, multiple components of the integrated circuit have a power supply reference level turned off, which provides low power consumption for the integrated circuit. The security processor performs the bootup operation using information stored in persistent on-chip memory. By not using information stored in off-chip memory, the security processor reduces the latency of the transition. The persistent on-chip memory utilizes synchronous random-access memory that receives a standby power supply reference level that continually supplies a voltage magnitude by not being turned off.

    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for dynamically estimating power losses in a computing system. A system management circuit tracks a state of a computing system and dynamically estimates power losses in the computing system based in part on the state. Based on the estimated power losses, power consumption of the computing system is estimated. In response to detecting reduced power losses in at least a portion of the computing system, the system management circuit is configured to increase a power-performance state of one or more circuits of the computing system while remaining within a power allocation limit of the computing system.
