Abstract:
The reset isolation mechanism describes an embedded safety island inside a system on a chip which reduces the overall system cost while achieving functional safety. The safety island ensures an orderly shutdown of all or part of the rest of the system on a chip without the possibility of a safety island hang due to incomplete transactions at the time of the reset.
