  • Publication number: 20220182930
    Abstract: A method for managing power during communication with an implantable medical device, including establishing a communications link, utilizing a power corresponding to a session start power, to initiate a current session between an implantable medical device (IMD) and external device. A telemetry break condition of the communications link is monitored during the current session. The power utilized by the IMD is adjusted between low and high power levels, during the current session based on the telemetry break condition. The number of sessions is counted, including the current session and one or more prior sessions, in which the IMD utilized the higher power level, and a level for the session start power to be utilized to initiate a next session following the current session is adaptively learned based on the counting of the number of sessions.

  • Publication number: 20220171446
    Abstract: Techniques for allocating power budget to a central processing unit (CPU) of a computing device are described. According to an example of the present subject matter, an unloaded component is detected. The unloaded component remains undetected upon completion of a boot process of the computing device. Thereafter, a power budget allocated to the unloaded component is determined. The power budget may be based on the thermal design power (TDP) of the computing device. Based on the power budget, a power configuration of the CPU is changed from a default power level to a high-performance power level, wherein the default power level corresponds to the TDP of the computing device and the high-performance power level is a power level above the default power level and upto a maximum power level of the CPU.

  • Publication number: 20220147127
    Abstract: Techniques for allocating power budget to a central processing unit (CPU) of a computing device are described. According to an example of the present subject matter, a CPU is operated at default power level corresponding to a thermal design power (TDP) of the computing device. Thereafter, an unused power of the computing device is determined at run-time. The unused power is a difference between an allocated power budget of the component and current power consumption of the component, wherein the allocated power budget is an amount of power allocated to the component based on the TDP of the computing device. Based on the unused power the CPU is operated at a high-performance power level. The high-performance power level is a power level above the default power and up to a maximum power level of the CPU.
