    摘要: A real-time power conservation and thermal management apparatus and method for portable computers employs a monitor (40) to determine whether a CPU may rest based upon a real-time sample of the CPU activity and temperature levels and to activate a hardware selector(500, 510, 520, 530) to carry out the monitor's determination. If the monitor determines the CPU may rest, the hardware selector reduces CPU clock time (280); if the CPU is to be active, the hardware selector returns the CPU to its previous high speed clock level (330). Switching back into full operation from its rest state occurs without a user having to request it and without any delay in the operation of the computer while waiting for the computer to return to a “ready” state. Furthermore, the monitor adjusts the performance level of the computer to manage power conservation and thermal management in response to the real-time sampling of CPU activity (10) and temperature (24). Such adjustments are accomplished within the CPU cycles and do not affect the user's perception of performance and do not affect any system application software executing on the computer.

    摘要: In order to continually receive messages in a dual personal computer system (PC) and personal digital assistant system (PDA) computer architecture, the PC system is deactivated to conserve battery power while the PDA continues to receive messages. As PDA memory is filled with messages, messages that are synchronized and archived with the PC system are 5 deleted and space is freed for incoming messages. When new and non-synchronized messages completely fill the PDA memory array, the PC system is reactivated or the user is informed.

    摘要: In order to provide desirable features of a low power personal digital (PDA) and a powerful computing personal computer (PC), the PDA and the PC are combined as one integrated computer architecture. When low power consumption is desired, the PDA controls the computer architecture, and when increased computing power is needed the PC is given control of the computer architecture. To maintain portability feature of a small size PDA a removable or detachable PDA is integrated into the chassis housing the computer architecture. The PDA is housed in a package that may be placed in an expansion bay or connected to the exterior of the chassis. The PDA has its own separate memory, input device, display and battery so it can operate independently. Interface connections are provided on the PDA in order to connect to the computer architecture.
