摘要：An apparatus including a storage area to store instructions and a controller to control power in a first device based on the instructions. In operation, the controller generates one or more signals to combine power from a first power source and a second power source for a hybrid power operation. The controller is to generate the one or more signals based on a connection state of the first device, multiple connection states of the first device, a charge level of a battery of the first device, or a combination thereof.

主权项：1. An apparatus comprising: a storage area to store instructions; and a controller to control power in a first device based on the instructions, wherein the controller to determine a first connection state of the first device and to determine a second connection state of the first device, the controller to generate one or more first control signals based on the determined first connection state, and the controller to generate one or more second control signals based on the determined second connection state, the one or more first control signals to control one or more first switch devices and the one or more second control signals to control one or more second switch devices to combine power from a first power source and a second power source for a hybrid power operation; wherein the first connection state of the first device is based on whether a second device is coupled to the first device; wherein: the first device comprises a tablet, the tablet including the controller to generate the one or more first control signals to control the one or more first switch devices on the tablet, and the second device comprises a base removably coupled to the tablet; and wherein the second connection state to be based on coupling of an AC adaptor to the first device.
