Dynamic Power Management
The recommended procedure is to bring the processor to the Sleep operat-
ing mode before substantially varying the voltage. For more information
about the Sleep operating mode, see
“Sleep Mode” on page 8-13
. This
procedure ensures the integrity and deterministic behavior of the
processor.
As soon as the processor is placed in the Sleep operating mode, the operat-
ing voltage can be safely modified. After the voltage has been changed to
the new level, the processor can safely return to any operational mode so
long as the operating parameters, such as core clock frequency (
CCLK
), are
within the limits specified in
ADSP-BF535 Blackfin Embedded Processor
Data Sheet
for the new operating voltage level.
External Voltage Regulator Example
A programmable voltage regulator external to the ADSP-BF535 processor
can be used to modify the operating voltage of the processor dynamically.
A simple handshaking mechanism allows the ADSP-BF535 processor and
the voltage regulator to alter the operating voltage dynamically.
The following examples use a simple signaling mechanism between the
ADSP-BF535 processor and the external voltage regulator to toggle
between a high performance and power saving mode of operation. The
Programmable Flags peripheral of the ADSP-BF535 processor provides a
convenient means for such a mechanism. For more information about
operating modes, see
“Operating Modes” on page 8-12
. For more infor-
mation about the programmable flag peripheral, see
“Programmable
Flags” on page 15-1
.
Power Saving Sequence
In the following example, the Full On operating mode represents the high
performance mode of operation, and the Active operating mode represents
the power saving mode.
