20090049327 | COMPUTER SYSTEM WITH ADJUSTABLE DATA TRANSMISSION RATE - A computer system has an adjustable data transmission rate between a CPU and a core logic chip thereof. In the computer system, the CPU has a power state adjustable in response to a power management control signal issued by the core logic chip. For adjusting data transmission rate between the CPU and the core logic chip, a change of an asserted time of the power management control signal from a first time period to a second time period is first determined to obtain an index value. The data transmission rate is increased or decreased according to the index value. | 02-19-2009 |
20100275045 | POWER MANAGEMENT METHOD AND RELATED CHIPSET AND COMPUTER SYSTEM - A power management method for use in a computer system having a processor, a power management module and a phase lock loop circuit (PLL) is provided. The power management module is coupled to a plurality of peripheral modules and the computer system and the processor are capable of being operated in a working state and power saving states. The method includes the following. When the computer system is operated in the working state and the processor is entered into a lowest power consumption state among the power saving states, states of the peripheral modules are detected to determine whether a specific condition has been matched. If the specific condition is matched, the processor is directed to a control state to control the PLL according to a control state configuration. | 10-28-2010 |
20100281277 | COMPUTER SYSTEM AND STAND-BY MODE MANAGEMENT MODULE AND STAND-BY MODE MANAGEMENT METHOD USING THE SAME - A stand-by mode management module applied in a computer system having a BIOS (basic input/output system), a graphic module and a display module is provided. The computer system is operated in a working state and at least one stand-by state. The module includes a timer and an interrupt generation unit. The timer starts a count period when detecting that the computer system is idle. The interrupt generation unit generates an interrupt request to the BIOS to request the computer system to prepare to enter to a specific state when the count period is reached. When the specific state is entered, the computer system enters the stand-by state, a PLL (phase lock loop) of the display module keeps turning on, and PLLs other than the PLL of the display module are turned off and the graphic module acquires a frame stored in a fixed area of a storing unit and displays the acquired frame on the display module. | 11-04-2010 |
