Electronic device and method of operation thereof

Abstract

The invention provides an operation method of an electronic device. The electronic device comprises a power source, a first processing system, a second processing system, a system bus and a shared device. The power source is used for supplying power to the electronic device; one of the first processing system and the second processing system is connected with the shared device through the system bus; and the processing capacity of the first processing system is greater than that of the second processing system. The operation method includes that output parameter values of the power source are real-time monitored; the output parameter values are used for demonstrating consumed power of the electronic device; the output parameter values are processed based on a predetermined strategy and a processed result is acquired; the processed result instructs that the first processing system needs to occupy the system bus, or instructs that the second processing system needs to occupy the system bus; and according to the processing result, the processing system needing to occupy the system bus is controlled to be connected with the system bus.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the operation of an electronic device, and in particular, to an electronic device and a method of operating the same. Background technique [0002] Currently, there is often only a single CPU in a single electronic device, even if there are multiple CPUs to enhance the processing power of a single electronic device, the multiple CPUs are often of the same type, for example, the same architecture: X86 architecture, or RISC architecture. [0003] It is known that the CPU of the X86 architecture has powerful performance and can handle various complex applications, but the disadvantage of high performance is high power consumption. Accordingly, in the case of using a battery as a power supply, the battery life is poor. [0004] However, the CPU of RISC architecture such as ARM has very good low power consumption capability, but its performance is difficult to reach the performance of the CPU of X86 architecture, and usual...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] It is known that the CPU of the X86 architecture has powerful performance and can handle various complex applications, but the disadvantage of high performance is high power consumption

Correspondingly, battery life is poor when using batteries as the power supply

[0004] However, the CPU of RISC architecture such as ARM has very good low power consumption capability, but its performance is difficult to reach the performance of the CPU of X86 architecture, and usually cannot meet the application occasions requiring complex application processing capabilities (for example, personal computers, etc.) )
