Computer system has microcontroller that reads information regarding interruption or unintended interruption of secondary operating voltage for system component, stored in memory and switches operating modes based on read information

摘要

The computer system (1) has a power supply (2), system component (3) with processor (4), and microcontroller (5). A memory (6) is connected with microcontroller to store information regarding the interruption or unintended interruption of secondary operating voltage for system component. The secondary operating voltage is supplied to processor in first operating mode, and is not supplied to processor in secondary operating mode. The microcontroller reads the information stored in memory and switches the operating modes of system component based on the read information. An independent claim is included for a method for operating computer system.
