摘要

A method and system for rendering a frame to be displayed on a screen includes a memory-sink mechanism configured to store a copy of a screen image in memory, a snoop mechanism configured to monitor a system parameter, a controller configured to switch between first and second operation modes in response to the snoop mechanism detecting a change to the system parameter, and a rendering mechanism to retrieve the copy of the screen image when the system operates in the second mode of operation.
