    Abstract: In one example, an apparatus comprises a first intellectual property (IP) circuit to execute operations on data and a power controller. The power controller is to: receive a boost value that is based at least in part on one or more characteristics of a power supply; determine a boosted maximum power level based at least in part on the boost value and a legacy maximum power level; and provide a boosted maximum power budget for the first IP circuit based at least in part on the boosted maximum power level. The first IP circuit, in response to an input voltage violation signal, is to reactively reduce power consumption equal to or below a legacy maximum power budget for the first IP circuit lower than the boosted maximum power budget. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: Techniques are provided for operating a computing system in a peak power mode while avoiding increased degradation of a battery. The peak power mode include cycles with peak and off-peak currents. The amplitude and duration of the peak and off-peak currents are governed by a thermal/heat budget of the battery. A processor can read the battery information during usage and calculate one or more parameters which are derived from heat. If a parameter is smaller than a reference value, the processor can update the peak power parameters to provide an increase in peak current/power and/or duration. If a parameter is larger than the reference value, no heat budget is available to provide an increase in peak current/power and/or duration. The thermal/heat budget can be enforced over each cycle of the peak power mode or in a summation over multiple cycles.
