Power Capping function that sets an upper limit on power consumption
•
The function can set an upper limit on system power consumption according to the customer's electric
power conditions.
•
After exceeding the set value and a certain period of time (grace period) has elapsed, the system is
suppressed to the maximum power consumption, with the frequency automatically controlled.
Power Saving function that suppresses the power consumption of hardware that
has a low usage rate
•
The function suppresses operation of hardware that has a low usage rate and reduces power
consumption by switching to power saving mode.
1. Understanding an Overview of the System
The power savings of the device have been achieved with a new implementation
technology. The SPARC M12 supports low power consumption to save energy through
power-saving design and energy-saving management.
