    摘要: An example method includes, responsive to determining that a button of a mobile computing device has been pressed for longer than a first amount of time, resetting a power management integrated circuit (PMIC); responsive to determining that the button of the mobile computing device has been pressed for longer than a second amount of time that is longer than the first amount of time, electrically disconnecting, at a first time, power sources from the mobile computing device; and electrically reconnecting, at a second time that is after the first time, the power sources to the mobile computing device.

    摘要: A partitionable multi-processor system includes a first plurality of components of the multi-processor system forming a first partitioned node that is operable as a first independent node, a second plurality of components of the multi-processor system forming a second partitioned node that is operable as a second independent node and a system controller that is configured to selectively and independently control separate power, clock, and/or reset signals to the first plurality of components forming the first partitioned node and the second plurality of components forming the second partitioned node in response to receiving a first partitioning mode instruction from a baseboard management controller (BMC) that identifies a partitioned state and configured to selectively control the separate power, clock, and/or reset signals to the first and second pluralities of components in a unified manner in response to receiving a second partitioning mode instruction from the BMC that identifies a unified state.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for power management of embedded devices are provided. An example apparatus includes a primary power management integrated circuit (PMIC) to communicate with an embedded system to determine a power state. The example primary PMIC is to include a first power state sequence controller and a first power supply controller. The example first power state sequence controller is to drive a first power supply controller according to the power state. The example first power supply controller is to activate a first set of rails to apply power to the embedded system. The example apparatus includes a secondary PMIC including a second power state sequence controller and a second power supply controller. The example second power sequence controller is to drive a second power supply controller according to the power state. The example second power supply controller is to activate a second set of rails to apply power to the embedded system.

    摘要: In a network data center, a plurality of modules provide power to equipment racks. Each of the modules has a plurality of taps which are connected by internal switching elements to power mains through an internal power distribution bus, such that each of the modules can switch any of the plurality of taps to two of the three phases of power. Each of the equipment racks has a multi-branch power distribution unit, branches of which may be connected together to receive power from the same tap. The number of branches in each multi-branch power distribution unit is configurable to adapt to the power requirements of the equipment rack. Power and control signals for the logic and control circuits of the modules are supplied separately from the power mains by a coordinating computer which has the modules connected in a redundant ring topology.

    摘要: Systems and methods for power consumption management based upon type of energy source in heterogenous computing platforms are described. In an illustrative, non-limiting embodiment, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include a heterogeneous computing platform having a plurality of devices and a memory coupled to the heterogeneous computing platform, where the memory includes a plurality of sets of firmware instructions, where each of the sets of firmware instructions, upon execution by a respective device among the plurality of devices, enables the respective device to provide a corresponding firmware service, and where at least one of the plurality of devices operates as an orchestrator configured to: determine a type of energy source used to power the IHS; and based at least in part upon the determination, change a power consumption parameter of the IHS.
