Functional Description
8.1.1 USB Power Management
An advanced power management capability interface compliant with
PCI Bus Power Management
Interface Specification Revision 1.1
is incorporated into the EHCI. This interface allows the EHCI to be
placed in various power management states, offering a variety of power savings for a host system.
highlights the EHCI support for power management states and features supported for each of
the power management states. An EHCI implementation may internally gate-off USB clocks and suspend
the USB transceivers (low power consumption mode) to provide these power savings.

State Required/
Optional by Spec
Comments
D0
Required
Supported in SP5100.
Fully awake backward compatible state. All logic in full power
mode.
D1
Optional
Not supported in SP5100.
USB Sleep state with EHCI bus master capabilities disabled. All
USB ports in suspended state. All logic in low latency power
saving mode because of low latency returning to D0 state.
D2
Optional
Not supported in SP5100.
USB Sleep state with EHCI bus master capabilities disabled. All
USB ports in suspended state.
D3hot
Required
Supported in SP5100.
Deep USB Sleep state with EHCI bus master capabilities
disabled. All USB ports in suspended state.
D3cold
Required
Supported in SP5100.
Fully asleep backward compatible state. All downstream devices
are either suspended or disconnected based on the
implementation’s capability to supply downstream port power
within the power budget.
The functional and wake-up characteristics for the EHCI power states are summarized in Table 8-2
below.
