Abstract
A method, apparatus, and device provide for the control of the power sourcing capability of a power source that supplies power to a device. A detection element of the device is operable to dynamically detect a power sourcing capability of the power source. A control element of the device is operable to monitor the detected power sourcing capability of the power source and to control the power source to effect a change in the power sourcing capability of the power source in response to a determination that the detected power sourcing capability of the power source is in violation of a threshold value.
