摘要:
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.

An embodiment of the present invention is a technique to dynamically swap processor cores. A first core has a first instruction set. The first core executes a program at a first performance level. The first core stops executing the program when a triggering event occurs. A second core has a second instruction set compatible with the first instruction set and has a second performance level different than the first performance level. The second core is in a power down state when the first core is executing the program. A circuit powers up the second core after the first core stops executing the program such that the second core continues executing the program at the second performance level.

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.

Systems and methods of managing memory devices provide for reduced power consumption and better thermal management through enhanced memory throttling. In one embodiment a memory unit includes a memory device and a temperature measurement module coupled to the memory device. The temperature measurement device measures the internal temperature of the memory device. Memory throttling can therefore be implemented based on more accurate measurements and with a much shorter response time.

摘要:
A method is described which comprises propagating electronic signals within circuitry comprising a transmitter to select a number of the transmitter's lanes, set a speed for each of the lanes, and set at least a driver supply voltage for each of the lanes. The number and speed determine the transmitter's bandwidth. Power consumed by the transmitter as a consequence of the lane number selection, lane speed setting and driver supply voltage is less than a power that would have been consumed by the transmitter had another available combination of lane number, lane speed and supply voltage been effected for the transmitter.

Self-refresh rates of a memory unit may be managed based on temperature. In one embodiment of the invention, the invention may include measuring the temperature of a memory unit, the memory unit having a self-refresh rate to maintain data integrity, comparing the measured temperature to a threshold, and adjusting the self-refresh rate of the memory unit based on the comparison.
摘要:
A method, apparatus, and system to enable a partial refresh scheme for DRAM which includes specifying at least a refresh start value, or a refresh start value and a refresh end value, to reduce the number of rows that must be refreshed during a refresh cycle, thus reducing the amount of power consumed during refresh.
