A voltage regulator circuit included in a computer system may include multiple phase circuits each coupled to a regulated power supply node via a corresponding inductor. The phase circuits may modify a voltage level of the regulated power supply node using respective control signals generated by a digital control circuit that processes multiple data bits. An analog-to-digital converter circuit may compare the voltage level of the regulated power supply node to multiple reference voltage levels and sample the resultant comparisons to generate the multiple data bits.

Eyewear including a support structure defining a region for receiving a head of a user. The support structure supports optical elements, electronic components, and a use detector. The use detector is coupled to the electronic components and is positioned to identify when the head of the user is within the region defined by the support structure. The electronic components monitor the use detector and transition from a first mode of operation to a second mode of operation when the use detector senses the head of the user in the region.

A sensing apparatuses includes a sensor, a processing circuit that acquires sensor output information from the sensor, a communication circuit that transmits transmission information corresponding to the sensor output information, and a clocking circuit that generates time information. The communication circuit receives time information for correction before the processing circuit starts acquiring the sensor output information. The clocking circuit corrects the time information based on the time information for correction received by the communication circuit. The processing circuit starts acquiring the sensor output information based on the corrected time information.

An automatic power on apparatus, system, method, and circuit automatically control the on/off state of a first electronic device or a second electronic device. When the second electronic device is positioned on, in, or proximate to the mounting area of the first electronic device, the automatic power on circuit establishes a coupling signal between a first portion of the automatic power on circuit and a second portion of the automatic power on circuit, activates the automatic power on circuit based on the coupling signal, and automatically controls an on/off state of the first electronic device or the second electronic device based on the activation of the automatic power on circuit.

In some examples, an electronic device comprises a battery; a storage device storing a user profile, the user profile comprising a usage pattern of the battery; and a processor coupled to the battery and the storage device, the processor to: receive a battery measurement of the battery and operational data of a first component of the electronic device; calculate a battery consumption of the first component based on the battery measurement; compare the battery consumption to the usage pattern; update, based on the comparison, the user profile using a time series model, wherein inputs to the time series model include the battery measurement and the operational data; and adjust a battery consumption of the electronic device based on the updated user profile.

Methods and system support use of peripheral devices by workspaces operating on an Information Handling System (IHS), where the workspaces operate in isolation from the hardware and other software of the IHS. Workspaces are thus unable to interface with hardware coupled to the IHS, including peripheral devices coupled to the IHS. In embodiments, workspace issue request for use of a remote operation supported by a peripheral device. A handle is then provided for invoking the remote operation supported by the peripheral device and for providing the workspace with exclusive use of the peripheral device for the duration of a validity of the handle. One the handle is used to invoke the remote operation supported by the peripheral device, the workspace is provided with output from the remote operation conducted during exclusive use of the peripheral device by the workspace.

Intelligent selection of optimization methods in heterogeneous environments is described. In some embodiments, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution, cause the IHS to: identify a context; rank a plurality of optimization methods based upon the context; and execute at least a subset of the ranked optimization methods.
