    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer programs are provided for controlling power in a computing device. One embodiment is a system comprising a plurality of power rails coupled to one or more computing device components. Each power rail has a primary power supply for producing current at a corresponding requested voltage. The system further comprises a shared secondary power supply selectively coupled to the plurality of power rails for providing a current increase. A controller selects one of the plurality of power rails to receive the current increase. The controller generates a control signal to electrically couple the shared secondary power supply to the selected power rail to receive the current increase.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed method for operating a serial interconnect of a computer system in a time deterministic manner. An exemplary method comprises that a command to be sent over the serial interconnect in a transaction is to be executed at a specific time. A delay period for the command to be sent from a master of the computer system to a slave of the computer system via the serial bus is determined, where the delay period determined based on a length of an arbitration phase of the transaction. The command is then sent to the slave of the computer system via the serial bus after the delay period.
