2D All telephony mode characteristics add network/Email, handheld digital video broadcasting device, image, DVD, some operating system characteristics All telephony mode unit add north bridge 204, south bridge 206,2D unit 214, handheld digital video broadcasting demodulator 262, WLAN fundamental frequency unit 264, video 216, central processing unit 202, big dynamic random access memory 252, flash storage 256
3D All phones and 2D mode characteristic add 3D recreation, game on line, complete operation system All phones and 2D mode unit add 3D 212
Therefore, a little necessary unit be opened power supply and/or startup are only arranged in telephony mode.By limit the power supply which unit can be opened and start between the telephony mode operational period, then can close the power supply that those do not need the unit, so for other pattern, can save electric power.Similarly, because of 2D operating period does not need to open the power supply of 3D unit 212, so the operation of 2D pattern can be saved electric power with respect to the operation of 3D pattern.In this 3D pattern, when this pattern allows to utilize the complete function that computer system 200 provided, can open the power supply of all unit.
Should attention person be an example for table 1.In various embodiment, can under different operation modes, provide different property combination.These different property combination can comprise more or fewer purpose characteristic, also can comprise with those being presented at the different characteristic of person in the table 1 clearly.Similarly, the unit of opening under each operator scheme is also with difference.Do not disclose additional unit clearly at this, but it can participate in the operation of various different modes, and thereby open or close power supply.May not can appear among all embodiment in these some unit that clearly disclose.
Mentioned as table 1, the different levels of the operating system that can in this 2D and 3D pattern, use a computer.In this 3D pattern, can utilize the operating system of complete function, as Microsft Windows.Thereby make this kind function can be used as required functions such as 3D and game on line.In this 2D pattern, the function of some operating system can be used, and includes, but is not limited to network access (by LAN or WLAN), Email, digital video broadcasting or the broadcast of DVD under this structure.Yet, can't obtain the complete function of this operating system in this pattern, so can't obtain corresponding function as 3D recreation and game on line.And in this 2D pattern, 3D unit 212 is not opened, and therefore can realize because of closing the relevant electric power saving due to this element power supply.
In this telephony mode, though can complete function of carrying out this telephony mode, can't obtain the characteristic of operating system.3D unit 212 or 2D unit 214 are not all opened in this telephony mode, therefore can reach electric power and save by remove power supply from these unit in this pattern operating period.And the power-off of other unit that during this phone mode operation, also this table can be carried, use the extra electric power saving of realization on this 2D pattern.
Should notice that the various different function units that show in the processor 201 can be realized in the combination of arbitrary integrated circuit.For example, in one embodiment, each functional unit in the processor 201 all can be independent of the integrated circuit of other functional unit to be carried out.In another embodiment, some functional unit can be integrated in the single IC for both and (consider to merge central processing unit 202,3D unit 212 and 2D unit 212 execution mode to single IC for both).Also the circuit card that can separate realizes some unit.For example video unit 216 can be realized by one or more drawing chip on the motherboard, perhaps, can comprise that the independent drafting card of this one or more drawing chip is realized.
Please see Figure 3 now, it shows another embodiment of computer system.Be presented at the various different function units possibility equities among Fig. 3 or be similar to the reciprocity part shown in Fig. 2.For example each of central processing unit 302,3D unit 312,2D unit 314 and fundamental frequency unit 366 can be individually or the like or is similar to the peer components-central processing unit 202 shown in Fig. 2,3D unit 212,2D unit 214 and fundamental frequency unit 266.Therefore, the various different function units of Fig. 3 have similar or reciprocity contrast in Fig. 2, and aforementioned explanation about peer components also can be applied to those unit shown in Figure 3.
In this shown embodiment of Fig. 3, computer system 300 comprises two keyboards and two displays.Say that more specifically computer system 300 comprises big keyboard 358 and keypad 374, also comprise big display 372 and small displays 373.Because this specific embodiment comprises two keyboards, so big keyboard 35 8 is not connected to fundamental frequency unit 366, the embodiment that is connected to fundamental frequency unit 266 with Fig. 2 keyboard 258 is different.Table 2 illustrates under the characteristic that the computer system 300 of Fig. 3 is supported, but which unit opening power and/or the unlatching of operating period of this various different mode.
Table 2
Work pattern Available characteristic Open the unit
Phone Phone, audio/speech .mp3, global positioning system, global location assistance system etc. Fundamental frequency unit 322, read-only/flash memory 368, keypad 374, small displays 373
2D All telephony mode characteristics add network/Email, handheld digital video broadcasting device, image, DVD, some operating system characteristics All telephony mode unit add north bridge 304, south bridge 306,2D unit 314, handheld digital video broadcasting demodulator 362, WLAN fundamental frequency unit 364, video 316, central processing unit 302, big dynamic random access memory 352, flash storage 256
3D All phones and 2D mode characteristic add 3D recreation, game on line, complete operation system All phones and 2D mode unit add 3D 312
Between the telephony mode operational period, fundamental frequency unit 366 can utilize small displays 373 to come display message.These are different to the computer system 200 of each display message of these three work patterns with use display 272.So can reduce the power supply of display 372 during this phone mode operation, this can provide extra electric power to save for the embodiment that needs big system display during this pattern.Similarly, because the existence of this keypad 374, big keyboard 358 can be kept idle during phone mode operation, and anyly also can be saved with its use associated power consumption.
When in this 2D or the operation of 3D pattern, the phone part of this system can use display 372 to come display message, maybe can select to use small displays 373.If display 372, then can be closed the power supply of small displays 373 in order to show under this 2D and the 3D pattern from the information of fundamental frequency unit 366 to reduce power consumption.Similarly, if under this 2D or the operation of 3D pattern, the use of keypad may not need, so if be power consuming device, it can put into idle state or powered-down.Yet the embodiment that small displays 373 and keypad 374 are all kept unlatching in this 2D and 3D pattern operating period also is feasible.
Please see Figure 4 now, it illustrates an embodiment who changes between various different modes in the computer system.Say that more specifically Fig. 4 illustrates switching between this telephony mode and the 2D pattern and the switching between this 2D pattern and the 3D pattern.
When operating under this telephony mode, the user can switch to this 2D pattern by taking one of several operations.If this processor (processor 201 as discussed above or 301) does not also have opening power, can use mains switch to finish switching from this telephony mode.This operation is applied to those functional units in this processor (and other and this incoherent external device of telephony mode) with power supply, and can provide electric power to the peripheral unit that is connected with this processor in addition.On the other hand, if this processor is opening power but in the sleep pattern of low electric power, can be by being attached to the mouse moving on this processor or finishing from this telephony mode and switch to this 2D pattern by pushing button on the big keyboard (that is qwerty keyboard configured) that is connected to this processor.Switching to this 2D pattern from this telephony mode also can produce according to the request of sending from this fundamental frequency unit by this secure digital input/output interface unit.
Getting back to the operation of this telephony mode can finish by the power supply of nullifying and reduce this computer system processor from this 2D mode switch.In addition, after inoperation after a while, the processor of computer system and various peripheral hardware will enter sleep pattern, and may take place from this 2D mode switch to this telephony mode this moment.
Operation from this 2D mode switch to this 3D pattern can be finished by the driver that starts this 3D pattern.For example,, then can start this 3D driver under the 2D pattern when this computer system is operated, make this computer system enter the 3D pattern if the user attempts to start the game on line with 3D graphic capability.In addition, the operation from this 2D mode switch to this 3D pattern also can be reached by applying electric power to the 3D functional unit this computer system simply.
Operation from this 3D mode switch to this 2D pattern can be finished by the electric power of closing this 3D driver (for example by leaving recreation or other application software that starts for the first time it) or removing the 3D functional unit.
When the present invention is illustrated with reference to specific embodiment, should understand these embodiment and only illustrate, the invention protection range is not limited.For any change of described embodiment, modification, additional and to improve be possible.These change, revise, add and improve to drop on and know clearly as in the appended application protection range of the present invention.
