A vehicle control device and a method thereof are provided. A master processor and a slave processor simultaneously receive, monitor or process signals of a vehicle, a power management module monitors the master processor via a first watchdog signal, and the master processor monitors the slave processor via a second watchdog signal. When the power management module sends the first watchdog signal to the master processor and no response message is received, the power management module sends a first reset signal to reset the master processor, and when the master processor sends the second watchdog signal to the slave processor and no response message is received, the master processor sends a second reset signal to reset the slave processor. When the master processor and the slave processor are abnormal, a forced wake-up module outputs a high level signal to forcibly wake up the master processor and the slave processor.

A warm mission-mode reset may be performed in a portable computing device. Assertion of a signal indicating an error condition may be detected. In response to detection of the signal indicating an error condition, a signal indicating a request to preserve memory contents may be provided to a DRAM subsystem. Then, in response to a signal acknowledging the DRAM subsystem is preserving the memory contents, a system reset signal may be asserted.

A method for handling input/output (I/O) expansion power faults in a telematics device is provided. The method includes setting an I/O expander power-off duration to an initial value and powering on an I/O expander interface. In response to detecting a power fault at the I/O expander interface, the I/O expander interface is powered-off dur the power-off duration and the power-off duration is increased. If the power-off duration is greater than the power-off duration limit, the I/O expander interface is permanently powered-off. The steps are repeated until either the power fault does not recur, or the I/O expander interface is permanently powered-off.

A method for managing a chassis includes obtaining, by an enclosure controller of the chassis, a power supply application to the chassis using a power supply interface, wherein the power supply interface is operatively connected to a plurality of power supplies, initiating a boot-up of a kernel of the chassis in response to the power supply application, initiating a parallel boot task using the power supply management temporary namespace to identify a power supply of the plurality of power supplies, initiating a mounting of a boot-up file system, and initiating a user space boot-up using the boot-up file system, wherein the user space boot-up and the parallel boot task are initiated in parallel.

A memory device including a clock generator generating a data processing clock signal based on an external clock signal, and an input/output circuit performing a data transmission/reception operation of transmitting/receiving data to/from an external device based on the data processing clock signal, wherein the clock generator comprises a warm-up operation controller generating a warm-up enable signal for recognizing a portion of a period of the external clock signal as a dummy signal, and resetting the warm-up enable signal when a pause period where a toggle of the external clock signal is temporarily stopped is detected.

An information handling system may include a processor, a battery configured to provide electrical energy to components of the information handling system, and a basic input/output system (BIOS) communicatively coupled to the processor and embodied by executable instructions embodied in non-transitory computer readable media, the instructions configured to, when executed by the processor, in response to one of execution of a BIOS managed operation or a request for execution of the BIOS managed operation: determine an energy requirement for execution of the BIOS managed operation; determine an energy capacity of the battery; determine if the energy capacity is sufficient to satisfy the energy requirement; and limit one or more features of the BIOS managed operation in response to the energy capacity being insufficient to satisfy the energy requirement.

An electronic device includes a communication interface including a Bluetooth-Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) combo module; a memory storing one or more instructions; and a processor configured to execute the one or more instructions stored in the memory to: detect that a WiFi communication with an external WiFi device, which is connected through the Bluetooth-WiFi combo module, is to be recovered; and based on the detection, release a Bluetooth connection with a Bluetooth device connected through the Bluetooth-WiFi combo module, and subsequently reset the Bluetooth-WiFi combo module to recover the WiFi communication.
