    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed to align processing events. An example apparatus includes a comparator to compare a value of a counter to a threshold value, the threshold value associated with an amount of time to defer provision of a first or second input signal to a corresponding first or second IP device, respectively, signal deferring circuitry to defer provision of the first or second input signals to a corresponding one of the first or second IP devices based on an output of the comparator, deferral of the first or second input signals to cause alignment of first and second processing events performed by the first and second IP devices, respectively, and power controlling circuitry to cause the first and second IP devices to power down based on completion of the first and second processing events.

    Abstract: The disclosure generally provides methods, systems and apparatus for functional safety systems. Specifically, the disclosure relates to validating functional safety warnings that may be communicated to an operator. Such warnings may include safety warning chimes. An exemplary embodiment relates to an apparatus to validate operation of a Functional Safety (FuSa) platform through delivery of a safety warning signal, the apparatus comprising: a Safety Application to issue a safety warning signal, the safety warning signal configured for audio delivery to an audience; a transmit path in communication with the Safety Application to transmit the safety warning signal; and a digital signal processing (DSP) circuitry to communicate with the transmit path, the DSP circuitry configured to detect the safety warning signal at the transmit path, the DSP circuitry further configured to communicate the detected safety warning signal back to the Safety Application; wherein the transmit path, the Safety Application and the DSP circuitry are integrated on a System-on-Chip (SoC).
