`U.S. Patent No. 8,477,514 – Samsung S2MM101
`
`Claim 16
`A method of operating a (SYS) power system, comprising:
`enabling operation of components of a (PRO) processor system to establish a (DRN) state of power drain
`thereof;
`providing a (S) signal to identify (OPN) operation of said (PRO) processor system in said (DRN) state of power
`drain;
`sensing a (PL) power level of said (DRN) state of power drain in response to said (S) signal; and
`controlling an (IOC) internal operating characteristic of a (PC) power converter as a function of said (PL)
`power level.
`
`Claim 17
`The method as recited in claim 16, further comprising:
`inducing a (PS) power switch of said (PC) power converter to conduct for a (DC) duty cycle to provide an (OC)
`output characteristic at an (OUT) output thereof; and
`controlling said (DC) duty cycle of said (PS) power switch dependent on said (OC) output characteristic and in
`accordance with said (PL) power level.
`
`Claim 20
`The method as recited in claim 16 wherein said (IOC) internal operating characteristic is selected from the
`group consisting of:
`a gate drive voltage level of a (PS) power switch of said (PC) power converter,
`a switching frequency of said (PC) power converter, and
`an (DCBV) internal direct current bus voltage of said (PC) power converter.
