Abstract:
A system, circuit, and device for waking up an application processor (AP) of the mobile device are disclosed. The system includes a low power personal area network (PAN) module configured to communicate with an external device for establishing a connection with the external device. The system also includes a controller for the low power PAN module configured to process a connection request signal from the external device and to wake up the AP of the mobile device in response to an AP on request signal from the external device when the connection request signal from the external device is verified as valid, where the controller is supplied with quiescent current from a battery of the mobile device prior to the wake up of the AP.
Abstract:
A mobile terminal includes a memory configured to store a prior usage pattern of at least one application, the prior usage pattern being used to control when the at least one application is executed. The controller further includes a controller configured to apply at least one setting related to execution of the at least one application in accordance with the prior usage pattern or provide a menu for applying the at least one setting related to execution of the at least one application in accordance with the prior usage pattern and execute the at least one application after the at least one setting is applied.

Abstract:
Systems, circuits, and devices for reducing leakage current in a mobile device with an embedded battery are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system for reducing leakage current in a mobile device with an embedded battery comprises a power management integrated circuit (PMIC), a switch device electrically coupled to the embedded battery and the PMIC, and a low power personal area network (PAN) module coupled to the embedded battery, the PMIC, and the switch device. The low power PAN module is configured to maintain the switch device in an open state while an application processor (AP) of the mobile device is off and to close the switch device in response to a receipt of an AP ON request signal to wake up the AP, where the open state of the switch device blocks leakage current flowing from the battery to the PMIC.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for controlling one or more sensor devices are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system of a mobile device for controlling one or more sensor devices comprises an application processor (AP), a low power personal area network (PAN) module configured to wirelessly communicate with an external device for establishing a connection with the external device, at least one sensor device, and a controller coupled to the AP, the low power PAN module and the at least one sensor device. The controller is configured to monitor a connection request signal communicated from the external device via the low power PAN module while the AP is in a sleep mode, and generate sensor data by processing each signal from the at least one sensor device during the sleep mode, where the controller is supplied with quiescent current from a battery of the mobile device during the sleep mode.
Abstract:
Systems for waking up an application processor (AP) of a mobile device are disclosed. In one embodiment, one of the systems of the mobile device includes a Bluetooth device with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) feature configured to receive a connection request signal from an external device and a hardware module coupled to the Bluetooth device with BLE feature. The hardware module is configured to forward an AP ON request signal received from the external device via the Bluetooth device with BLE feature if the pairing request signal is determined to be valid, and wherein the Bluetooth device with BLE feature and the hardware module are supplied with quiescent current from a battery of the mobile device prior to the wake up of the AP.
Abstract:
A mobile terminal and controlling method thereof are disclosed, by which a setting of a low power wireless communication module can be automatically reseted if the mobile terminal is turned on. The present invention includes a power supply unit, an application processor, a low power wireless communication module configured to maintain an active state by being supplied with the power from the power supply unit despite that the mobile terminal is in an inactive state, the low power wireless communication module set to be cut off a signal inputted from the application processor if the application processor is in the inactive state, and a reset circuit receiving a trigger signal from the application processor after activation of the application processor, the reset circuit resetting a setting of the low power wireless communication module based on the trigger signal.
