Abstract: An electronic device includes a power management circuit generating output for a plurality of voltage monitors that each detect whether voltages received from a test apparatus are at least a different minimum threshold. The power management circuit also generates a test enable signal indicative of whether the test apparatus is supplying the minimum required voltages to the electronic device. A control circuit receives the output for the plurality of voltage monitors and the test enable signal and generates at least one control signal as a function of the output for the plurality of voltage monitors and the test enable signal. An output circuit receives the at least one control signal and generates an interface control signal that selectively enables or disables interface with analog intellectual property packages within the electronic device, in response to the at least one control signal.

Abstract: An embedded system includes a peripheral and system-on-a-chip executing virtual machines and a hypervisor. The peripheral includes a crossbar circuit receiving digital sensor signals and selectively outputting the digital sensor signals to different outputs, queue circuits each receiving a different one of the digital sensor signals from the crossbar circuit, and queue protection circuits associated with the queue circuits and selectively permitting access to one of the queue circuits by the virtual machines. The hypervisor controls the queue protection circuits to set which of the virtual machines may access which queue circuits. A sensor protection circuit selectively permits reading of the digital sensor signals from the crossbar circuit by the queue circuits. The hypervisor controls the sensor protection circuit to set which of the queue circuits may access each of the digital sensor signals from the crossbar circuit.
