Abstract
A device includes a first processor and a second processor. The first processor is configured to operate in accordance with a first power mode. The first processor includes a first transistor. The first processor is configured to, while operating in accordance with the first power mode, switch the first transistor at a first duty cycle. The second processor is configured to operate in accordance with a second power mode. The second processor includes a second transistor. The second processor is configured to, while operating in accordance with the second power mode, switch the second transistor at a second duty cycle. The second duty cycle is greater than the first duty cycle. The second processor consumes less power while operating in accordance with the second power mode than the first processor consumes while operating in accordance with the first power mode.
