Launched by Google in February 2013, the Chromebook Pixel was the high-end machine in the Chromebook family. The laptop has an unusual 3:2 display aspect ratio touch screen featuring what was at its debut the highest pixel density of any laptop, [130] a faster CPU than its predecessors in the Intel Core i5, and an exterior design described by ...
Either of the computer's two USB-C ports may be used for charging; [10] using the provided 45 W charger, charging for twenty minutes provides up to two hours of use. The 47 Wh battery has a claimed life of 12 hours; [9] [10] the UHD model comes with a larger 56 Wh battery. [11] The Pixelbook drops support for the active stylus Pixelbook Pen. [10]
Framework claims that the Chromebook edition has upgraded speakers and batteries compared to the standard laptop, but the speakers were described as "muffled" by ZDnet and the battery life was rated as quite poor for a Chromebook by ZDnet, Engadget, and PCMag. Engadget and PCMag criticize the price relative to other Chromebooks, but the former ...
In most cases, it can charge the battery and power the laptop simultaneously. When the battery is fully charged, the laptop continues to run on power supplied by the external power supply, avoiding battery use. If the used power supply is not strong enough to power computing components and charge the battery simultaneously, the battery may ...
Thermal Design Power (TDP), also known as thermal design point, is the maximum amount of heat that a computer component (like a CPU, GPU or system on a chip) can generate and that its cooling system is designed to dissipate during normal operation. Some sources state that the peak power rating for a microprocessor is usually 1.5 times the TDP ...
Computer cooling is required to remove the waste heat produced by computer components, to keep components within permissible operating temperature limits. Components that are susceptible to temporary malfunction or permanent failure if overheated include integrated circuits such as central processing units (CPUs), chipsets , graphics cards ...
Liquid crystal coatings can be used for localization of faults: cholesteric liquid crystals are thermochromic and are used for visualisation of locations of heat production on the chips, while nematic liquid crystals respond to voltage and are used for visualising current leaks through oxide defects and of charge states on the chip surface ...
It is a common misunderstanding [2] that the energy not delivered by the battery due to Peukert's law is "lost" (as heat for example). In fact, once the load is removed, the battery voltage will recover, [3] and more energy can again be drawn out of the battery.
