In an embodiment, a control circuit is configured to transmit operations to a circuit block that is being powered up after being powered down, to reinitialize the circuit block for operation. The operations may be stored in a memory (e.g. a set of registers) to which the control circuit is coupled. In an embodiment, the control circuit may also be configured to transmit other operations from the memory to the circuit block prior to the circuit block being powered down. Accordingly, the circuit block may be powered up or powered down even during times that the processors in the system are powered down (and thus software is not executable at the time), without waking the processors for the power up/power down event. In an embodiment, the circuit block may be a cache coupled to the one or more processors. |
