Abstract:
In accordance with disclosed embodiments, there are provided systems, methods, and apparatuses for implementing late fusing of processor features using a non-volatile memory. For instance, there is disclosed in accordance with one embodiment a functional semiconductor package, including: a processor core configurable via a plurality of configuration registers; a non-volatile storage, in which a first portion of the non-volatile storage includes permanently lockable storage that once written cannot be overwritten or modified, and in which a second portion of the non-volatile storage includes the plurality of configuration registers; a first write interface to the non-volatile storage, in which the permanently lockable storage of the non-volatile storage is wirelessly writable externally from the functional semiconductor package via the first write interface; a second write interface to the non-volatile storage through which the plurality of configuration registers are writable; configuration data for the processor core written wirelessly into the permanently lockable storage of the non-volatile storage; and in which the configuration data is distributed into the plurality of configuration registers via the second write interface at every boot of the functional semiconductor package. Other related embodiments are disclosed.
Abstract:
In one example a electronic device comprises at least one heat generating component, a thermal management module comprising logic, at least partly including hardware logic, to receive a signal from the sensor indicating that the electronic device is coupled to an external device, receive thermal dissipation capability data from the external device, and update a thermal management platform for the electronic device to accommodate the thermal dissipation capability data received from the external device. Other examples may be described.

Abstract:
An apparatus may include first circuitry coupled to one or more platform components, the first circuitry operative to receive an unfiltered input voltage signal, compare a first voltage level of the unfiltered input voltage signal to a first reference voltage level, and generate a control signal operative to lower operation power of one or more of the one or more platform components when the first voltage level is less than the first reference voltage level.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus relating to controlling processor slew rates based on battery charge state/level are described. In one embodiment, logic causes modification to a slew rate of a processor based on at least a charge level of a battery pack. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
