Patent number: 11681481Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a first controller and a second controller. The first controller is configured to control an operation of the overall information processing apparatus. The second controller is configured to control an operation of a device. When detecting a trigger of resumption from a power saving mode, the second controller notifies the first controller of the detection of the trigger, and starts to initialize a function corresponding to the trigger.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2020Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: FUJIFILM Business Innovation Corp.Inventors: Tomoki Tanihata, Shinho Ikeda, Asahito Shioyasu, Hisashi Noda, Kenta Nomura

Publication number: 20210014376Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a first controller that controls an overall operation of the apparatus, and a second controller that outputs an image stored in a specific area of a storage medium to a display device if a predetermined time has elapsed from activation. The second controller generates a second image and writes the second image in the specific area. If a first image is received from the first controller after the second controller writes the second image, the second controller overwrites the second image in the specific area with the first image.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 28, 2020Publication date: January 14, 2021Applicant: FUJI XEROX CO., LTD.Inventors: Shinho IKEDA, Asahito SHIOYASU, Tomoki TANIHATA, Hisashi NODA, Kenta NOMURA

Publication number: 20160217845Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a memory that is volatile, a memory controller connected to the memory in an information exchangeable manner, and a clock enable (CKE) controller. The CKE controller controls a CKE signal in response to a request for a proxy in self-refresh control, the CKE signal being transmitted from the memory controller to the memory and being controlled to be kept low until cancellation of the proxy is requested. At a time of shifting to a power-saving mode, the memory controller stores information held by a central processing unit (CPU) in the memory and causes the memory to shift to a self-refresh mode. At a time of recovery from the power-saving mode, the memory controller requests the CKE controller for the cancellation of the proxy in the self-refresh control and thereafter cancels the self-refresh mode of the memory.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 28, 2015Publication date: July 28, 2016Applicant: FUJI XEROX CO., LTD.Inventors: Tsutomu NAKAMINATO, Yoshinobu TERUI, Tomokazu KANEKO, Katsuma NAKAMOTO, Yoshitaka TERUI, Asahito SHIOYASU
