More Information
Summary:An information handling system may include a processor; a memory; a voltage regulator module (VRM) coupled to the processer and a power source; an embedded controller (EC) operatively coupled to the VRM; the power source to provide power to the processor based on the type of processor detected, memory, and EC; and the EC being operatively coupled to a switch that is operatively coupled to a resistor divider circuit for setting a load line resistance level to the VRM; and the EC and to transmit a signal to the switch to set a load line resistance level provided to the VRM, via adjustment to the resistor divider circuit, the adjustment based on power requirements of the type of processor installed as detected by a basic input/output system (BIOS).
