摘要:
A method of tracking a printed circuit board is described. An embedded identification device is utilized. The embedded identification device is placed in a layer of the printed circuit board. An external transceiver is used to communicate with the embedded device and record platform information.

An audio wake-up circuit for use to wake up a computer system from a sleep mode. Such an audio wake-up circuit comprises an operational amplifier (Op-Amp) coupled to receive an audio input from a user via an audio input device, and having a feedback network arranged to compare the input audio with an attenuated version of the output audio and make an appropriate amplification; and a switching device coupled to the operational amplifier (Op-Amp) and arranged to assert a power management (PME#) wake event so as to wake up the computer system from a sleep mode, when the input audio from the user exceeds a predetermined level.

A method and apparatus include providing a printed circuit board (PCB) having at least one light permeable layer, at least one non-light permeable layer having at least one void therethrough that may be vertically aligned with the at least one light permeable layer, and a source of illumination to simultaneously illuminate through the void and the at least one light permeable layer.
摘要:
A technique usable with a computer includes in response to the computer being in a predetermined sleep state, coupling a load to conduct current from a supply voltage plane of the computer to ground. The supply voltage plane does not receive power from a power resource of the computer in response to the predetermined sleep state. In response to the computer being in a predetermined state other than the predetermined sleep state, the load is decoupled so that the load does not conduct current from the supply voltage plane to ground.
摘要:
A computer includes two signal lines on which wake events can occur, but the computer's motherboard recognizes wake signals occurring on only one of these signal lines. Therefore, the computer includes a circuit that, in response a wake event on the signal line that is not recognized by the motherboard, delivers a wake signal over the signal line that is recognized by the motherboard.

A computer includes two signal lines on which wake events can occur, but the computer's motherboard recognizes wake signals occurring on only one of these signal lines. Therefore, the computer includes a circuit that, in response a wake event on the signal line that is not recognized by the motherboard, delivers a wake signal over the signal line that is recognized by the motherboard unless prevented from delivering the signal by a disable element.
