Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate generally to monitoring a dining session using smart smallwares. A smart smallware may sense usage or non-usage associated with a dining session of a customer. Based on the sensed non-usage of the smart smallware, the smart smallware may detect a period of inactivity. In response to the detected period of inactivity, the smart smallware may transmit an indication of the detected period of inactivity. This transmitted indication may cause an external monitoring device to notify a waitperson that a customer associated with that smart smallware may require attention. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract: A dual mode voltage regulator according to one embodiment includes a passive regulator circuit; a switching regulator circuit; and a controller circuit configured to monitor operational parameters of the dual mode voltage regulator and selectively couple either the passive regulator circuit or the switching regulator circuit between an input voltage port and an output load. The selective coupling is based on the monitoring of parameters including current through the output load, voltage at the input voltage port and voltage at the output load as well as the availability of a system clock signal.
