The AHB domain accepts or denies requests based on whether it is busy performing any
transfers. Figure 2-9 shows that static memory controllers always accept requests after
they have performed the required operations to prepare the external memory for the
clock to be switched off.
Figure 2-9 Accepting requests
The low-power request smc_csysreq is driven LOW at time T1. When the memory
controller is happy for the clock to be switched off, the smc_csysack signal is driven
LOW to acknowledge the request, as shown at T2. smc_cactive is driven LOW, so the
system clock controller knows the request has been accepted. When acknowledged, the
system clock controller can disable both the smc_aclk and smc_mclk0 signals.
The two domains have separate interfaces to enable individual handshaking with the
system clock controller. The only usage model is to switch off both domains. Each
individual low-power interface protocol must be observed before all the clocks can be
disabled.
