Abstract: Circuits, apparatus, and methods that provide a connector system that can supply both power and data to a mobile computing or other type of device using a single connection. Further examples also provide a power and data adapter that can provide power and data to a mobile computing device using a single cable. Further examples provide an easy disengagement when a cable connected to the connector is pulled. One such example provides a magnetic connector that uncouples without binding when its cord is pulled. Another example prevents power from being provided at a connector insert until the connector insert is placed in a connector receptacle.

Abstract: Circuitos, un aparato, y métodos que proporcionan un sistema conector que puede suministrar tanto energía como datos a un dispositivo de computación móvil, o de otro tipo, utilizando una sola conexión. Ejemplos adicionales también proporcionan un adaptador de energía y datos que puede proporcionar energía y datos a un dispositivo de computación móvil utilizando un solo cable. Ejemplos adicionales proporcionan un fácil desacoplamiento cuando se jala un cable conectado al conector. Un ejemplo semejante proporciona un conector magnético que se desconecta sin unión cuando su cuerda se jala. Otro ejemplo evita que se proporcione energía en una inserción de conector hasta que la inserción de conector se coloca en un receptáculo de conector.

Abstract: A system comprising a first control assembly (201) comprising a first sensor (206) and a first indicator (205), the first sensor configured to receive a first user input and control a presentation of the first indicator in response to the first user input; and a second indicator (235) configured to receive a signal from the first sensor of the first control assembly, the signal synchronizing a presentation of the second indicator with the presentation of the first indicator.

Abstract: A dynamic power management system includes an operating system (OS) that causes a processor to operate in one of multiple run states that have different performance and/or power dissipation levels. The OS selects the run state in response to processor information (e.g., processor load) being monitored by the OS. The OS can predict future states of the processor information based on sampled processor information. The OS can take an average of the predicted and actual samples for comparison with a threshold to select a run state. The OS can track the number of consecutive saturated samples that occur during a selected window of samples. The OS can predict future processor information samples based on the number of consecutive saturated samples.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments of methods and apparatuses to manage a power of a data processing system are described. One or more constraint parameters of a system are monitored. The data processing system is forced into an idle state for a first portion of a time while allowed to operate for a second portion of the time based on the one or more constraint parameters, wherein the system is forced into the idle state in response to comparing a target idle time to an actual idle time. The target idle time of the system is determined, in one embodiment, based on the one or more constraint parameters. The actual idle time of the system may be monitored to take into account interrupts which disrupt an idle time and idle times resulting from no software instructions to execute. The system may be allowed to operate based on comparisons of the target idle time and the actual idle time.

Abstract: Various embodiments of a wirelessly powered local computing environment are described. The wireless powered local computing environment includes at least a near field magnetic resonance (NFMR) power supply arranged to wirelessly provide power to any of a number of suitably configured devices. In the described embodiments, the devices arranged to receive power wirelessly from the NFMR power supply must be located in a region known as the near field that extends no further than a distance D of a few times a characteristic size of the NFMR power supply transmission device. Typically, the distance D can be on the order of 1 meter or so.
