Abstract:
Provided is a method and apparatus for reducing an amount of power consumed in an electronic device. The electronic device includes a first processor and a second processor. The second processor bypasses at least one of a user input and a screen output with respect to the first processor, and stores screen data input from the first processor in a frame buffer, while the second processor executes a bypass operation. The first processor processes at least one of a user input and a screen output, through the second processor that executes the bypass operation, and when a specified power-saving operation entry condition is satisfied, the first processor changes the second processor into a processing operation and changes into a sleep operation. The second processor processes at least one of a user input and a screen output using screen data stored in the frame buffer during the processing operation.
Abstract:
An apparatus is configured to perform a method for scrolling a display screen to correspond to a touch input in a mobile terminal. Upon detecting a touch input, the mobile terminal determines an actual coordinate value of the detected touch input, obtains a predicted coordinate value for the determined actual coordinate value, obtains a smoothed coordinate value by performing a smoothing operation on the obtained predicted coordinate value, and determines that the detected touch input has occurred at the obtained smoothed coordinate value.

An electronic device includes: a battery; a power management Integrated Circuit (IC) is connected to the battery; a plurality of components receive a power through the power management IC from the battery. A processor is connected to the plurality of components. A memory is electronically connected to the processor and stores instructions controlling the processor to monitor a power amount or an amount of electric current supplied to at least one electronic component among the plurality of the electronic components, and determine whether the power amount or the amount of electric current amount supplied to the at least one monitored electronic component is equal to or exceeds a predetermined value, and reduces a power amount or an amount of electric current of the at least one component or another component related to the at least one component.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an electronic device including a battery, a display, a processor electrically connected with the battery and the display, and a memory which is electrically connected with the processor and stores at least one application, wherein the memory stores instructions which, when executed, cause the processor to monitor power consumption of the at least one application during execution of the at least one application in an off state of the display, and to display, on the display, information indicating whether a value of the power consumption exceeds a threshold selected during a selected time, based on at least a part of a result of the monitoring immediately after the display enters an on state.
