Abstract
This disclosure describes, in part, techniques for performing multi-path calculations for energy levels on an electronic device. For instance, the electronic device may include a first circuit and a second circuit, where the first circuit uses less power than the second circuit. As such, when operating in a standby mode, the electronic device may use the first circuit to calculate energy levels at the electronic device, such as speech-energy values and ambient-energy values. Additionally, while operating in an active mode, the electronic device may active the second circuit and then use the second circuit to calculate the energy levels at the electronic device. The first circuit and the second circuit can send/receive current energy levels between one another so that the electronic device can continually calculate the energy levels even when the electronic device switches between modes of operation.
