Abstract:
Arrangements for restarting data transmission on a serial low-power inter-chip media bus (SLIMbus) are presented. A clock signal may be provided in an active mode to a component communicatively coupled with the SLIMbus. Immediately prior to the clock signal in the active mode being provided, the clock signal may have been in a paused mode. While the clock signal was in the paused mode at least until the clock signal is provided in the active mode, the data line may have been inactive (e.g., a toggle on the data line may not have been present). Frame synchronization data for a frame may be transmitted. The frame synchronization data for the frame, as received by the component, may not match expected frame synchronization data. Payload data may be transmitted as part of the frame to the component, wherein the payload data is expected to be read properly by the component.
Abstract:
Systems and methodologies are described herein that facilitate a synchronous bus architecture for multi-radio coexistence associated with a wireless device. As described herein, a system of buses operating in a synchronous manner, combined with optional on-chip and/or other supplemental buses, can be utilized to couple respective radios and/or other related endpoints to a coexistence management platform, thereby facilitating management of coexistence between multiple radios in a unified and scalable manner. As further described herein, communication between a coexistence manager and its respective managed endpoints can be facilitated through the use of a single bus or multiple buses (e.g., external buses, on-chip and/or other internal buses, etc.) that can operate concurrently and/or in an otherwise cooperative manner to facilitate expedited conveyance of radio event notifications and their corresponding responses.
Abstract:
Techniques are disclosed for utilizing a non-ported generic device (NGD) or other non-ported hardware to couple processing device(s) to access components on a serial data bus without the need for integrated manager hardware. Using the NGD, a processing device(s) can utilize available unused bandwidth on the serial data bus to communicate with components coupled with the serial data bus, including a processing device having the manager hardware. Various alterations and embodiments are disclosed.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer-readable media for controlling components connected to and/or otherwise associated with a data bus are presented. According to one or more aspects of the disclosure, a plurality of processing devices having data bus management capability and at least one data bus associated with the plurality of processing devices may be identified. Subsequently, an inter-processor communication (IPC) layer for communication between the plurality of processing devices and the at least one data bus may be established over a messaging layer utilized by the at least one data bus. At least one component associated with the at least one data bus may then be controlled via the IPC layer using at least one of the plurality of processing devices.
