  • Processor Having Accelerated User Responsiveness In Constrained Environment
    Publication number: 20230168732
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a processor includes at least one core to execute instructions and a power controller coupled to the at least one core. The power controller may include a first logic to cause the at least one core to exit an idle state and enter into a maximum performance state for a first time duration, thereafter enter into an intermediate power state for a second time duration, and thereafter enter into a sustained performance state. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

  • Systems and methods for communicating voltage regulation information between a voltage regulator and an integrated circuit
    Patent number: 7908496
    Abstract: Systems and method for providing a regulated voltage supply to an integrated circuit. In an embodiment of the invention, a voltage regulator in a system provides an integrated circuit in the system with information related to the voltage regulator providing a supply voltage to the integrated circuit. In another embodiment of the invention, the integrated circuit makes determinations about the operating characteristic of the system using information from the voltage regulator.

  • Apparatus and method for reducing power consumption on simultaneous multi-threading systems
    Patent number: 7653906
    Abstract: Activities may be delayed from being dispatched until another activity is ready to be dispatched. Dispatching more than activities increase overlapping in execution time of activities. By delaying the dispatch of the activities, power consumption and thermal dissipation on a multi-threading processor may be reduced.

  • Self-calibrating digital thermal sensors
    Publication number: 20080317086
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus relating to calibration of digital thermal sensors after manufacturing are described. In one embodiment, a temperature value sensed by a digital thermal sensor may be calibrated based on a temperature value sensed by a thermal diode.

  • Apparatus and method for reducing power consumption on simultaneous multi-threading systems
    Publication number: 20040083478
    Abstract: Activites may be delayed from being dispatched until anther activity is ready to be dispatched. Dispatching more than one activities increase overlapping in execution time of activities. By delaying the dispatch of the activities, power consumption and thermal dissipation on a multi-threading processor may be reduced.
