    • A method and system are set forth for enabling software control of a power management unit (PMU) in a System-On-a-Chip (SoC) device to effect changes in power state without having to adjust external board level states. In one embodiment, once the SoC system controller has been booted, it communicates with the PMU over a communication bus and is able to request changes in power states without requiring external trigger events. Complete remote control of power states according to the method and system set forth herein provides flexibility when debugging and testing SoC devices because there is no need to alter external board states. Also, providing programmable changes in reset states as an alternative to full system reset preserves state data so that the system can be restarted efficiently and quickly from known conditions.
    • 提出了一种方法和系统,用于使得能够在片上系统(SoC)设备中的功率管理单元(PMU)的软件控制来实现功率状态的改变而不必调整外部板级状态。 在一个实施例中,一旦SoC系统控制器被启动,它通过通信总线与PMU进行通信,并且能够请求在电源状态的改变而不需要外部触发事件。 根据本文提出的方法和系统,完全对电源状态的远程控制提供了调试和测试SoC设备时的灵活性,因为不需要改变外部电路板状态。 此外,提供复位状态的可编程更改作为全系统复位的替代方案,保留状态数据,以便可以从已知条件有效和快速地重新启动系统。

    • A flexible and scalable bi-directional CDC interface is set forth between clock domains in a SoC device. The interface comprises a pulse sync circuit for receiving a pulse synchronized to the source clock domain and in response outputting a busy signal to the source clock domain and outputting the pulse synchronized to said destination clock domain; an input register for latching data from said source clock domain in response to a transition of said source clock in the event said busy signal is not active and preventing said data from being latched in the event said busy signal is active so as not to corrupt previously latched data; and an output register for receiving said pulse from said pulse sync circuit and in response latching said pulse from said input register on a transition of said destination clock.
