APPLICATION PROCESSOR, MOBILE DEVICE HAVING THE SAME, AND METHOD OF SELECTING A CLOCK SIGNAL FOR AN APPLICATION PROCESSOR.

摘要

An application processor includes a main central processing device that operates based on an external main clock signal received from at least one external clock source when the application processor is in an active mode, at least one internal clock source that generates an internal clock signal, and a sensor sub-system that processes sensing-data received from at least one sensor module on a predetermined cycle when the application processor is in the active mode or a sleep mode, and that operates based on the internal clock signal or an external sub clock signal received from the external clock source depending on an operating speed required for processing the sensing-data.
