Abstract:
1. A first computing device, comprising: an interface to facilitate establishment of a connection between a second computing device and an internal memory of the first computing device; a first voltage regulator to regulate a voltage received from the second computing device to a regulated voltage to power the internal memory of the first computing device; a controller to facilitate an exchange of data between the second computing device and the internal memory of the first computing device; an internal power source; a second voltage regulator to regulate a voltage received from the internal power source to a regulated voltage to power the internal memory of the first computing device; and a switch to switch between use of the second voltage regulator when the first computing device is in an active state, and use of the first voltage regulator when the first computing device is in an inactive state and the interface is connected to the second computing device.
