Abstract
In a method and system for managing power provided to a load, a power supply system includes a first power peripheral operable to receive and convert a first type of power to a second type of power. Also included in the power supply system is a second power peripheral operable to receive the second type of power and provide power to the load. A power event trigger device, which is included in the second power peripheral, is operable to introduce a trigger signal in the power to the load. The trigger signal, which is introduced in response to receiving a change in the second type of power, is detected as a power event.
