DYNAMIC POWER CONTROL FOR REDUCED VOLTAGE LEVEL OF GRAPHICS CONTROLLER COMPONENT OF MEMORY CONTROLLER BASED ON ITS DEGREE OF IDLENESS

摘要

A method includes detecting a trigger condition, and in response to detecting the trigger condition, reducing a voltage applied to a graphics controller component of a memory controller. The reduction in voltage may cause the voltage to be reduced below a voltage level required to maintain context information in the graphics controller component.
