CLOCK & POWER MANAGEMENT S3C2440A RISC MICROPROCESSOR
7-10

POWER MANAGEMENT

The Power Management block controls the system clocks by software for the reduction of power consumption in

the S3C2440A. These schemes are related to PLL, clock control logics (FCLK, HCLK, and PCLK) and wakeup

signals. Figure 7-7 shows the clock distribution of the S3C2440A.

The S3C2440A has four power modes. The following section descr ibes each power management mode. The

transition between the modes is not allowed freely. Please see Figure 7-8 for available transitions among the

modes.
