Abstract:
A device may include a power supply module (PSM). The PSM may receive information regarding one or more programmable restrictions associated with a power supply. The PSM may receive a measurement of voltage associated with the power supply. The PSM may determine a current associated with the power supply based on the one or more programmable restrictions, the measurement of voltage, and a first amount of power associated with the power supply. The PSM may cause a load associated with the power supply to be adjusted based on determining the current without removing power for a connection between the power supply and a power source associated with the power supply. The PSM may cause the power supply to provide a second amount of power based on causing the load associated with the power supply to be adjusted.
Abstract:
A system may receive, by a switching component of the system, network traffic to be provided to an I/O component of the network device. The system may route, by the switching component, the network traffic to the I/O component based on whether the I/O component is connected to the switching component via the first connections and/or via second connections. The first connections may be connections via a chassis of the system. The second connections may be connections via a connector component that is removable from the switching component. The network traffic may be routed via the first connections and the second connections when the I/O component is connected via the first connections and the second connections. The network traffic may be routed via the first connections and not via the second connections when the I/O component is connected via the first connections and not via the second connections.
Abstract:
A system may include a power module that includes a group of power supplies, particular ones of the group of power supplies being operable at a group of voltages ranging from a first voltage to a second voltage. The system may further include a controller coupled to the particular ones of the group of power supplies, the controller being to ramp up an output voltage, associated with the group of power supplies, from the first voltage to the second voltage in a group of discrete steps; where ramping up the output voltage by a particular one of the group of discrete steps is performed while a load is receiving power from the group of power supplies; and where ramping up the output voltage by a particular one of the group of discrete steps prevents over-current protection on the group of power supplies from being activated.
Abstract:
An apparatus, includes a PCB, a semiconductor package that includes a substrate and a stiffener with an opening, and at least one connection component. The stiffener is disposed on a top surface of the PCB. The at least one connection component is configured to connect the PCB to the semiconductor package. The at least one connection component may include another PCB that is disposed on the substrate within the opening of the stiffener and on the PCB. The at least one connection component may include an array of connectors that are disposed on the substrate within the opening of the stiffener, and may include a socket disposed on the PCB. The at least one connection component may include a BGA that is disposed on the substrate within the opening of the stiffener and on the PCB and on a pedestal portion of a surface of the PCB.
