Methods and system of reducing power consumption of system on chip based on analog-to-digital control circuitry are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes converting an analog signal of external device coupled to the system on chip to a digital signal using an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) of the system on chip with a processor of the system on chip in a sleep mode or power down mode. The method further includes waking up the processor of the system on ship to perform an exception event based on a comparison of the digital signal with a threshold value associated with the external device.

Systems, devices and methods for clearing memory using a built-in self-test circuit are disclosed. In one embodiment, a device for clearing memory using a built-in self-test circuit comprises a clear memory module added to a memory built-in self-test (MBIST) controller generating a signal for clearing one or more memory modules and one or more wrapper circuits with each wrapper circuit comprising an address generator module forwarding a range of addresses associated with the clearing the memory modules, a write data generator module forwarding a pattern of logical zeroes to the range of addresses and a finite state machine controlling writing the pattern to the range of addresses based on the signal for the clearing the memory modules.

In one embodiment of the invention, a forward error correction system comprises a client device having a FEC encoder module generating FEC encoded data based on input data and a selector module forwarding either the input data or the FEC encoded data as transmission data. The system further comprises a host device having a splitter module routing the transmission data via two data paths, a decoder module generating decoded data by decoding the transmission data and a comparator module forwarding either the transmission data or the decoded data as output data based on analyses of the transmission data and the decoded data, where the forwarding is determined by a degree of channel connectivity between the client device and the host device and where each of the two data paths lead to the decoder module and to the comparator module.

Method and system of guising communication using a chatter signal is disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes communicating a chatter signal generated by a first node of a network to a second node based on the communication protocol of the network to guise a true signal of the first node communicated to the second node of the network, and processing the true signal communicated to the second node while dispensing with the chatter signal communicated to the second node based on the communication protocol of the network. The method may also include padding the chatter signal and/or the true signal with pseudorandom bits to make a size of the chatter signal equal to a size of the true signal. Moreover, the method may include guising a key exchanged between the first node and the second node with the chatter signal.

Management method and system of low power consuming devices are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes monitoring a heartbeat signal of a device communicated through a network, and communicating with the device upon processing the heartbeat signal of the device. In another embodiment, a system includes one or more devices to individually generate a heartbeat signal and a control point to communicate with each of the devices based on the heartbeat signal processed through the control point.

According to some embodiments, a received radio frequency (RF) signal is used to power a display update system and a display device. The received radio frequency signal also includes information to update the display device. The display update system may include a voltage processing unit to derive power from the signal, a processor to demodulate, optionally decrypt, and optionally authenticate the signal.

Optimum power management of system on chip based on tiered states of operation is disclosed. In one embodiment, a system on chip includes a hardware module including one or more of a microcontroller, a microprocessor, a DSP core, a memory, a timing source, a peripheral, and an external interface to have a real time counter module of the peripheral isolated from a rest of the hardware module using a plurality of voltage level shifting cells and/or a plurality of voltage island cells. Also, the system on chip includes a software module associated with the real time counter module to generate one or more control signals to one or more devices external to the system on chip during a sleep mode of the system on chip.
