The transaction device may include a secure element configured to perform the transaction using the power received from the external device. The transaction device may include one or more peripheral components configured to perform one or more operations other than the transaction. The transaction device may include a power management component configured to determine at least one operation, of the one or more operations, to be performed in association with the transaction, and to route power received from the external device to at least one peripheral component, of the one or more peripheral components, capable of performing the at least one operation. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A transaction device, comprising: one or more memories; and one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories and configured to: receive, from an external device and in connection with performing a transaction, a first amount of power; estimate, before completing the transaction and based on receiving the first amount of power, a second amount of power required to perform one or more operations to be performed other than the transaction, wherein the second amount of power is estimated before initiating the transaction or while performing the transaction; and obtain, from the external device and based on estimating the second amount of power, a third amount of power. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The transaction device of claim 1, wherein the second amount of power is estimated before initiating the transaction. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The transaction device of claim 1, wherein the second amount of power is estimated while performing the transaction. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The transaction device of claim 1, wherein the one or more processors are further configured to: estimate, before completing the transaction and based on receiving the first amount of power, a fourth amount of power that will be available after the transaction is completed, wherein the third amount of power is further based on estimating the fourth amount of power. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The transaction device of claim 4, wherein the one or more processors are further configured to: determine, based on estimating the second amount of power, that the fourth amount of power satisfies the second amount of power, wherein the third amount of power is obtained based on determining that the fourth amount of power satisfies the second amount of power. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The transaction device of claim 1, wherein the one or more operations are to be performed by one or more peripheral components of the transaction device. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The transaction device of claim 1, wherein the one or more processors are further configured to: determine the one or more operations to be performed other than the transaction, wherein the second amount of power is estimated based on determining the one or more operations. ### Claim 8 A method, comprising: receiving, by a transaction device and from an external device, a first amount of power before or during performing a transaction; estimating, by the transaction device, before completing the transaction and based on receiving the first amount of power, a second amount of power required to perform one or more operations to be performed other than the transaction, wherein the second amount of power is estimated before initiating the transaction or while performing the transaction; and obtaining, from the external device and based on estimating the second amount of power, a third amount of power. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The method of claim 8, wherein the second amount of power is estimated while performing the transaction. ### Claim 10 (depends on 8) The method of claim 8, further comprising: estimating, before completing the transaction and based on receiving the first amount of power, a fourth amount of power that will be available after the transaction is completed, wherein the third amount of power is further based on estimating the fourth amount of power. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The method of claim 10, further comprising: determining, based on estimating the second amount of power, that the fourth amount of power satisfies the second amount of power, wherein the third amount of power is obtained based on determining that the fourth amount of power satisfies the second amount of power. ### Claim 12 (depends on 8) The method of claim 8, wherein the one or more operations are to be performed by one or more peripheral components of the transaction device. ### Claim 13 (depends on 8) The method of claim 8, further comprising: determining the one or more operations to be performed other than the transaction, wherein the second amount of power is estimated based on determining the one or more operations. ### Claim 14 A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions, the set of instructions comprising: one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a transaction device, cause the transaction device to: receive, from an external device and in connection with performing a transaction, a first amount of power; estimate, before completing the transaction and based on receiving the first amount of power, a second amount of power required to perform one or more operations to be performed other than the transaction, wherein the second amount of power is estimated before initiating the transaction or while performing the transaction; and obtain, from the external device and based on estimating the second amount of power, a third amount of power. ### Claim 15 (depends on 14) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 14, wherein the second amount of power is estimated before initiating the transaction. ### Claim 16 (depends on 14) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 14, wherein the second amount of power is estimated while performing the transaction. ### Claim 17 (depends on 14) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 14, wherein the one or more instructions further cause the transaction device to: estimate, before completing the transaction and based on receiving the first amount of power, a fourth amount of power that will be available after the transaction is completed, wherein the third amount of power is further based on estimating the fourth amount of power. ### Claim 18 (depends on 17) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 17, wherein the one or more instructions further cause the transaction device to: determine, based on estimating the second amount of power, that the fourth amount of power satisfies the second amount of power, wherein the third amount of power is obtained based on determining that the fourth amount of power satisfies the second amount of power. ### Claim 19 (depends on 14) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 14, wherein the one or more operations are to be performed by one or more peripheral components of the transaction device. ### Claim 20 (depends on 14) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 14, wherein the one or more instructions further cause the transaction device to: determine the one or more operations to be performed other the transaction, wherein the second amount of power is estimated based on determining the one or more operations.
