Abstract: Embodiments of a method and an apparatus for on-demand power management of a processing system have been presented. In some embodiments, the apparatus includes a power management unit (PMU) to provide power to an electronic system. The apparatus further includes a power management controller (PMC) coupled to the power management unit, to control values of one or more parameters of an operating state of the PMU in response to the operating conditions of the electronic system. The PMC may execute a power management algorithm (PMA) to determine the values of the parameters. Further, the PMU and the PMC may reside on different integrated circuit substrates.

Abstract: An apparatus for on-demand power management including an I/O serial communication master device, peripheral devices that communicate with the master device along the serial communications bus, and a power manager that buffers the peripheral devices from the serial communication master. The power manager also manages voltage regulation and clock sources to the peripheral devices, with the ability of placing the peripheral devices in an inactive state, or in any number of active states as a means to conserve energy. In some embodiments, the I/O serial communications master acts as if the peripheral devices are always in the highest activity state, and the power manager manages the communications to and from the peripheral devices and the power management of the peripheral devices to reduce energy consumption and system latency.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for dynamically controlling impedance to maximize the transfer of energy from energy source(s) to load(s). In a system with a load, an energy source, and a power distribution network (PDN) coupled between the energy source and the load, system conditions and environmental changes of the system are monitored. Using a variable impedance circuit, the impedance of the PDN can be dynamically controlled such that the transfer of energy from the energy source(s) to the load(s) is increased.

Abstract: An apparatus for on-demand power management includes an I/O parallel communication master device, peripheral devices that communicate with the master along the parallel bus, and a power manager that arbitrates the parallel bus. The power manager also manages voltage regulation and clock sources to the peripheral devices, with the ability of placing the peripheral devices in an inactive state, or in any number of active states as a means to conserve energy.
