Abstract: When power is provided through a USB-C cable from a source device to a sink device, a sudden connection or disconnection of the cable between the two devices may cause a sudden power surge or power drop in at least one of those devices, leading to other problems. To avoid this sudden event from causing potential damage or disruption to one of the devices, in some embodiments a CC pin in the cable is used to announce the impending connection/disconnection, and the device may throttle back its power consumption before power is actually applied to or removed from the power pins.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for managing power delivery to multiple universal serial bus (USB) type-C ports of a desktop computer system. In an example, a method can include providing a first power level to a USB power delivery controller during a non-sleep mode operation of the desktop computer, and providing a second power level to the USB power delivery controller when the computer is in a sleep mode, the second power level configured to provide default charge power to a connected device when the computer is in the sleep mode.

Abstract: In some examples, a power delivery system includes a primary power path to provide power to a computing system. The power delivery system also includes a bypass power path. A port manager is to disable the primary power path and to enable the bypass power path in response to a dead battery condition.

Abstract: Embodiments are generally directed to an apparatus utilizing computer on package construction. An embodiment of a computer includes a substrate; one or more semiconductor devices, the one or more semiconductor devices being direct chip attached to the substrate, the one or more semiconductor devices including a central processing unit (CPU); and one or more additional components installed on the substrate, wherein the computer excludes I/O components.
