摘要: A power control and memory refresh rate management circuit is described. The provides circuitry for selectively disabling or enabling modular logic blocks within a VLSI integrated under program from an external processor, suspended operation in general. In low-power modes signal generation circuits are provided with low-frequency oscillator to conserve power.
