E) read by c) operating voltage of having preserved and the operating frequency stated, and recover former CPU operating voltage and operating frequency by instruction;
F) closing the monitoring feedback regularly interrupts.
The method that described monitoring feedback is regularly interrupted is: set the maximum threshold values and the minimum threshold values of buffer size, and this is compared comprise the steps:
G) if the buffer size that reads greater than maximum threshold values, represents that then cpu frequency is higher, judge underflow flag for anti-concussion, if be masked as 0, allow current frequency reduce a constant, new CPU operating frequency and operating voltage are set, return interruption; If be masked as 1, do not change operating frequency and the operating voltage of CPU, directly return interruption;
H) if the buffer size that reads less than minimum threshold values, represents that then cpu frequency is on the low side, allow existing frequency increase by a constant, new CPU operating frequency and operating voltage are set, depositing overflows is masked as 1, returns interruption;
I) if the buffer size that reads both less than maximum threshold values, again greater than minimum threshold values, represents that then cpu frequency is suitable, directly return interruption.
Relation between described CPU operating frequency and the minimum operating voltage is the corresponding relation that is provided the discrete type between CPU operating frequency and the minimum operating voltage by CPU manufacturer, and its median is then provided by simple linear interpolation.The timing that the monitoring feedback is regularly interrupted is generally between 30 milliseconds to 50 milliseconds, and the time is too short, can cause CPU to adjust overfrequency, and the time is oversize, and it is slow partially to occur reaction again.The maximum threshold values of buffering area is 90% of a buffer size.The minimum threshold values of buffering area is 50% of a buffer size.A described constant is 1 percent five equilibriums of the difference of the peak frequency of CPU work and minimum frequency.
Beneficial effect of the present invention: after adopting the present invention, the palm video playing device of MP4 allows CPU be operated in lowest operating frequency and minimum operating voltage all the time, neither can produce concussion, guarantee serviceability again, thereby guaranteed the lowest power consumption in the dynamic use, overcome the energy-conservation bottleneck of palm video playing device, its meaning is very far-reaching.
