    摘要: A thermal manager has a digital filter whose input is to receive raw temperature values from a sensor and whose output is to provide processed or filtered temperature values according to a filter function that correlates temperature at the sensor with temperature at another location in the device. The thermal manager has a look-up table that further correlates temperature at the sensor with temperature at the other location. The look-up table contains a list of processed temperature sensor values, and/or a list of temperatures representing the temperature at the other location, and their respective power consumption change commands. The thermal manager accesses the look-up table using selected, filtered temperature values, to identify their respective power consumption change commands. The latter are then evaluated and may be applied, to mitigate a thermal at the other location. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

    摘要: A system for displaying multiple colors individually or in combination with one another. The system may emit red, green and blue light from light emitting diodes and may additionally provide white light to brighten the color provided by the red, green and blue light emitting diodes. The white light source may also be used to increase the power efficiency of the system, thus increasing the lifetime of the system for displaying multiple colors. The white light source may be used to backlight the color provided by the red, green and blue light emitted by the light emitting diodes, or may also be used as an additional light source to the light provided by the red, green and blue light emitting diodes.

    摘要: Power management approaches for computer systems having one or more processors are disclosed. One power management approach provides hierarchical power management. The hierarchical nature of the power management provided by the invention has various levels of power management such that power consumption of the computer system is dependent upon the amount of work placed on the processing resources of the computer system. Another power management approach pertains to deterministic handshaking provided between a power manager and one or more controller units. The deterministic handshaking provides for more reliable and controllable transitions between power management states which have associated power management taking place in the controller units. The power management approaches are suitable for use with a single-processor computer system or a multi-processor computer system.

The functional integrated circuit provides a function other than clock generation, such as a peripheral or interrupt control. Typically, the clock generation is phase-lock loop (PLL) based. The functional integrated circuit also typically provides power savings modes to conserve power consumption.
