Electrical power distribution in notebooks
Von laptop, 06:53Measurements of the electrical output of Notebooks are very complex. Because the values vary widely depending on the hardware and software. Additionally, in practice, some components such as CPU are not individually or graphics card, but measured only in conjunction with other components. In mobile use, the Dell Latitude D610 battery takes over powering the electrical components of a notebook. Its stored energy determines the battery life as follows:
The duration of a Dell Inspiron 8000 battery in hours resulting from the performance of the battery capacity, measured in watt-hours, divided by the average power consumption of the device, determined in watts.
A look at the distribution of the electric power of a notebook shows, where in terms of power savings for further development potential.
A third of the Dell Inspiron 6400 battery capacity claims in “normal mode” the display. Only then follow by far the CPU and power supply. The latter is a purely thermal dissipation of the voltage regulator. For generating the control electronics must be a high-voltage Dell Studio 1537 battery
, many different small voltages for each laptop components. These loops have a certain efficiency, which is calculated as follows: power input divided by output. The higher the efficiency (efficiency), the less “useless” thermal power generates an electrical device.
Conclusion: lower Dell Studio 1737 battery voltage increases, the efficiency of power supply, while reducing the thermal losses, and the battery life increases.
