Abstract

Systems and methods are provided that may be implemented to control operation of a power supply unit (PSU) during a low power state. The disclosed systems and methods may be implemented to control operation of a PSU relay included within the PSU, while the information handling system is operating in a low power state, e.g., such as the modern standby (S0ix) state. The disclosed systems and methods may also be implemented to provide intelligent PSU relay control that may be utilized to control operation of the PSU relay when the information handling system is entering, operating within, and exiting the modern standby (S0ix) state. This intelligent PSU relay control may include at least two operating modes: a modern standby mode and a normal mode of operation, and may be implemented to ensure that the PSU relay remains off during modern standby and returns to normal relay operation upon exiting modern standby.
