SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DYNAMICALLY IDENTIFYING A POWER ADAPTOR POWER RATING BASED ON OPERATING CONDITIONS

摘要

A power adaptor system may comprise a power source supplying input voltage according to a dynamic power rating to an operably connected host information handling system, a power source identification (PSID) module of the power adaptor receiving an adjustable setting voltage from the power source via a setting voltage port of the PSID module, and a controller of the PSID module executing code instructions to select the dynamic power rating for the power source based on a measurement of the adjustable setting voltage indicating an operating condition of the power adaptor or based on an indication of an operating condition the operably connected host information handling system, wherein the dynamic power rating is one of a plurality of dynamic power ratings in including an adjustable range of power levels at each dynamic power rating at which the power source is capable of operating.
