    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods of power management for a system on a chip (SoC) are described. In one method, the operational states of the cores/processors of the SoC are monitored and, if a core/processor is in idle or standby mode, the rate of the clock signal driving a component, such as a memory interface, associated with the idle core/processor is reduced, thereby reducing power consumption.
