MUMBAI, India, July 5 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517049061 A) filed by Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., Santa Clara, U.S.A., on May 21, for 'system and method to reduce power consumption when conveying data to a device.'

Inventor(s) include Gutierrez, Raul.

The application for the patent was published on July 4, under issue no. 27/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Systems, apparatuses, and methods for moving data from a memory in a computing system to an I/O device. A system includes a processor, memory, I/O controller, and power management circuitry. An application stores data in the memory that is to be ultimately conveyed to an I/O device. The I/O controller is configured to convey the data to an I/O device according to a service interval. The I/O controller is configured to fetch a first data item from the memory stored by the application, and prefetch one or more additional data items from memory. The first data and prefetched data are stored in a locally accessible buffer of the I/O controller. The I/O controller is then configured to convey each of the first data and one or more data items from the buffer to the I/O device at regular intervals of time during a given period of time, prior to initiating a fetch of additional data from the memory. During the given period of time, the power management circuitry is configured to cause at least the memory to enter a reduced power state."

The patent application was internationally filed on Nov. 14, 2023, under International application No.PCT/US2023/079663.
