Patent number: 11886878Abstract: An integrated coprocessor such as an accelerated processing unit (APU) generates commands for execution on a discrete coprocessor such as a discrete graphics processing unit (dGPU). Power distribution circuitry selectively provides power to the APU and the dGPU based on characteristics of workloads executing on the APU and the dGPU and based on a platform power limit that is shared by the APU and the dGPU. In some cases, the power distribution circuitry determines a first power provided to the APU and a second power provided to the dGPU. The power distribution circuitry increases the second power provided to the dGPU in response to a sum of the first and second powers being less than the platform power limit. In some cases, the power distribution circuitry modifies the power provided to the APU, the dGPU, or both in response to changes in temperatures measured by a set of sensors.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 2019Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignees: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., ATI TECHNOLOGIES ULCInventors: Sukesh Shenoy, Adam N.

Publication number: 20230410699Abstract: The subject technology provides structured-shutdown-mode versions of a video view of a physical setting of an electronic device. An electronic device may provide, at a first power consumption rate, a video view of a portion of the physical setting, the portion being physically blocked from being directly viewed by a user of the device, by the electronic device itself. Structured-shutdown-mode versions of a video view may be provided, at a second power consumption rate lower than the first power consumption rate, to a display of an electronic device when the device determines that it is in a low power or failure state. In this way, the electronic device can reduce the functionality and power consumption of the display in a structured manner, to continue to provide a version of the video view to the user in the low power or failure mode state.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 24, 2021Publication date: December 21, 2023Inventor: Brian C.
