METHODS AND APPARATUS TO REDUCE COMPUTING DEVICE POWER CONSUMPTION

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to reduce computing device power consumption are disclosed. Examples determine an idle period based on hardware residency of the computing device, and set a timer to wake up a central processing unit (CPU) from a low power idle state after the idle period, the CPU to exit the low power idle state in response to expiration of the idle period. 本文公开了用于降低计算设备的功耗的方法、设备、系统和制品。示例基于计算设备的硬件驻留确定空闲时段，并设置定时器以便在空闲时段之后，从低功率空闲状态唤醒中央处理单元(CPU)，该CPU响应于空闲时段的到期而退出低功率空闲状态。
