    Abstract: An electronic device including a power source providing a source voltage, a capacitor, a primary regulator circuit, an always-on load that is active during a low power mode, and a recycle control circuit. The primary regulator circuit receives the source voltage and has an output that maintains a charge on the capacitor during an active mode. The primary regulator circuit does not contribute to a charge on the capacitor during the low power mode. The recycle control circuit includes a select circuit and a select control circuit. The select circuit selects, based on a control signal, between the voltage of the capacitor and at least one supply voltage including or otherwise developed using the source voltage to provide power to the always-on load during the low power mode. The select control circuit provides the control signal to control power provided to the always-on load during the low power mode.

    Abstract: A human-machine-interface system comprising: register-file-memory, configured to store input-data; a first-processing-element-slice, a second-processing-element-slice, and a controller. Each of the processing-slices comprise: a register configured to store register-data; and a processing-element configured to apply an arithmetic and logic operation on the register-data in order to provide convolution-output-data. The controller is configured to: load input-data from the register-file-memory into the first-register as the first-register-data; and load: (i) input-data from the register-file-memory, or (ii) the first-register-data from the first-register, into the second-register as the second-register-data.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit comprising a set of data processing units including a first data processing unit and at least one second data processing unit operable at variable frequencies is disclosed. The integrated circuit further includes an instruction scheduler adapted to evaluate data dependencies between individual instructions in a received plurality of instructions and assign the instructions to the first data processing unit and the at least one second data processing unit for parallel execution in accordance with said data dependencies. The integrated circuit is operable in a first power mode and a second power mode. The second power mode is a reduced power mode compared to the first power mode and is adapted to adjust the operating frequency of the first data processing unit and the at least one second data processing unit in the second power mode as a function of the evaluated data dependencies.

    Abstract: A processor includes a register file having a plurality of register file addresses, a processing unit, configured to perform processing in accordance with a configuration defined by information stored in the register file, and an instruction sequencer. The instruction sequencer is configured to control the processing unit by retrieving a sequence of instructions from a memory, in which each instruction includes an opcode, and a subset of the instructions includes a data portion. For each instruction in the sequence of instructions, the instruction sequencer performs an action defined by the opcode. The action for the subset of the opcodes includes writing the data portion to a register file address defined by the opcode. The sequence of instructions includes variable length instructions.
