An information handling system includes a DDR5 DIMM and a voltage regulator. The voltage regulator provides a voltage rail to the DDR5 DIMM. In a first mode, the voltage rail is based upon a pulse frequency modulation, and in a second mode, the voltage rail is based upon a forced continuous conduction mode). Selection of one of modes is based upon an input to the voltage regulator. When the information handling system is in a first state, the information handling system provides an input signal to the input to direct the voltage regulator to operate in the first state, and when the information handling system is in a second state associated with a sleep mode of the information handling system, the information handling system provides the first input signal to the first input of the voltage regulator to direct the voltage regulator to operate in the second state.

Method for providing dynamic voltage regulator characteristic changes

An information handling system including a processor; a battery; a charger module a voltage regulator module connected between the charger module and the processor, the voltage regulator module configured to receive power from the charger module and provide a regulated voltage to the processor; a OVP module configured to determine that the regulated voltage output from the voltage regulator module is above a first threshold, and in response, provide a first signal to the charger module to indicating that the regulated voltage is above the first threshold; a UVP module configured to determine that the charger voltage output from the charger module is below a second threshold, and in response, provide a second signal to the charger module indicating that the charger voltage is below the second threshold, wherein the charger module, in response to receiving both the first signal and the second signal, changes to an off power state.

Power management of voltage regulators in an information handling system

Methods, systems, and computer programs encoded on computer storage medium, for polling a battery management unit (BMU) that is coupled to a battery power source, the polling including identifying parameters associated with the battery power source and are stored by registers; determining that an AC power source is not actively providing power to the IHS; determining that the battery power source does not support dynamic battery power technology (DBPT); determining that the RSoC of the battery power source is greater than a first threshold percentage and less than a second threshold percentage; determining an updated processor peak power (PPP) value based on i) the RSOC, ii) a minimum PPP of the processor at the first threshold percentage, and iii) a maximum PPP of the processor at the second threshold percentage; and updating the registers based on the updated PPP.
