  • Patent number: 12009687
    Abstract: A battery that periodically checks an actual battery capacity or energy with charge to a preset voltage (e.g., 4.1 V). The battery then decides the battery capacity or energy. If the capacity or energy is insufficient, then an apparatus in or associated with the battery slightly increases charging voltage to a point where the capacity is sufficient (e.g. from 4.1 V to 4.11 V). The process of periodically checking and slightly increasing charging voltage is performed until charging voltage reaches specification limit (e.g., 4.2 V). The scheme described herein has benefits such as battery longevity can be extended, risk of insufficient energy reserve can be reduced, burst power can be used as long as possible, and/or even higher burst power can be used.

  • Patent number: 11537191
    Abstract: Technologies for providing advanced management of power usage limits in a disaggregated architecture include a compute device. The compute device includes circuitry configured to execute operations associated with a workload in a disaggregated system. The circuitry is also configured to determine whether a present power usage of the compute device is within a predefined range of a power usage limit assigned to the compute device. Additionally, the circuitry is configured to send, to a device in the disaggregated system and in response to a determination that the present power usage of the present compute device is not within the predefined range of the power usage limit assigned to the present compute device, offer data indicative of an offer to reduce the power usage limit assigned to the present compute device to enable a second power utilization limit of another compute device in the disaggregated system to be increased.
