摘要: A system for delivering power to a processor enables a DC-to-DC converter substrate to be secured to the processor carrier in the Z-axis direction. The ability to assemble the converter to the processor in this way facilitates assembly compared to systems in which the converter is plugged in to the processor carrier in the direction substantially parallel to the surface of the motherboard.

摘要: Dynamic runtime calibration of a processor with respect to a specific voltage regulator that powers the processor or a memory subsystem coupled to the processor can reduce or eliminate the need for guardbands in power management computations. The processor receives a current measurement from the voltage regulator and computes a calibration factor based on the measured value and a stored expected value. The calibration factor can be used in making power management decisions instead of adding the guardband to power readings. A manufacturer or distributor of the processor can compute the stored values with a controlled voltage supply that has a higher precision than typical commercial power supplies used in computing systems. The computed, stored values indicate the expected value, which can be used to determine a calibration factor relative to a voltage regulator of an active system.

摘要: Embodiments of the invention supply power to DRAM or other memory devices with a multi-phase voltage regulator. A power controller coupled to the multi-phase voltage regulator causes one or more phases of the multi-phase voltage regulator to be activated or deactivated (shed) according to predetermined criteria. Embodiments of the invention thus improve power management by providing one or more reduced power states for the memory devices. Other embodiments are described.
