Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a primary initiator domain (ID) circuit including having a processor core, a responder domain (RD) control circuit, and a reset controller. Secondary ID circuits, each include a processor core and a reset controller. RD circuitry is coupled to communicate with the primary ID circuit and the secondary ID circuits and includes RD resource circuits. The RD control circuit is configured to allocate each of the RD resource circuits to a first initiator domain consisting of the primary ID circuit or one of the secondary ID circuits, and when one of the secondary ID circuits enters a reset mode of operation, the RD resource circuit allocated to the one of the secondary ID circuits enters a reset while the remaining RD resource circuits are not affected by the reset.

Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a digital logic circuit, a multiplexer (MUX) having a first and a second data input, a control input, and an output coupled to an input of the digital logic circuit. The second data input is coupled to receive a high frequency clock signal. The integrated circuit includes a very low frequency (VLF) clock is configured to provide a VLF clock signal when enabled, and a counter coupled to receive the VLF clock signal and configured to toggle an output of the counter upon counting a predetermined number of cycles of the VLF clock signal. The output of the counter is coupled to the first data input of the MUX. The MUX is configured to provide the first data input as the output of the MUX during a low power mode, and otherwise to provide the second data input as the output of the MUX.
