A device may include a plurality of direct current to direct current (DC/DC) converters that may produce voltages, and a first device that may receive a signal from a second device on a removable module when the removable module is coupled to the device. The first device may produce, based on the signal, an instruction related to one or more voltages associated with the removable module. The instruction may cause a first DC/DC converter and a second DC/DC converter, of the plurality of DC/DC converters, to power up at different times based on a particular sequence, and generate the one or more voltages. The particular sequence may be based on the signal. The first device may cause the one or more voltages, generated by the first DC/DC converter and the second DC/DC converter, to be provided to the removable module.

Adaptive power architecture for electronic modules

A system may include a module that includes a component, a logic device to provide an instruction on behalf of the component, and control logic to generate a desired output voltage signal in response to a constant current, where the desired output voltage signal indicates a determined voltage that the component is configured to operate with when performing an operation. The system may include a board that includes a power supply to produce the determined voltage based on the instruction, and an interface to couple the determined voltage to the component to allow the component to perform the operation on behalf of the board, send the constant current to the control logic, and receive the desired output voltage signal from the control logic.
