Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Apparatus and methods for reducing power consumption of a data transfer interface in a computer system are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for reducing power consumption of a data transfer interface between a first device and a second device, includes, identifying a free interval between a first data and a second data, disabling the data transfer interface during the free interval, enabling the data transfer interface at the end of the free interval, and transmitting the second data. The method may also include a step of notifying the second device that the data transfer interface is being temporarily disabled. Another embodiment, for example, includes the transfer of display data (or video frames) over an interface, such as, a DisplayPort interface, between a graphics controller device and a timing controller device in a computer system.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method of reducing power consumption for transferring video frames of a video stream over a data transfer interface between a first device and a second device, the method comprising: determining, by the second device, whether (a) the video stream is completed or terminated or (b) the data transfer interface is disabled after a notification included in a video frame of the video stream; receiving, over the data transfer interface, the notification from th…
