Abstract:
In an electronic device including a processor interface and a processor interconnected to the processor interface by a bus, activity on the bus is monitored and in response to inactivity, the processor interface is placed in a lower power consumption mode. While in the lower power consumption mode, processor requests to the processor interface are inhibited.
