    摘要: Apparatus and methods of reducing dock path power consumption are described herein. According to one embodiment, an example apparatus includes a clock control circuit. The clock control circuit includes a command/address domain configured to selectively provide a command/address clock signal based, at least in part, on a chip select signal. The clock control circuit further includes a command domain circuit configured to selectively provide a command clock signal based, at least in part, on the chip select signal. The clock control circuit further includes a column latency domain circuit configured to selectively provide a column latency clock signal based, at least in part, on a memory command. The clock control circuit further includes a four phase domain circuit configured to selectively provide a four phase clock signal based, at least in part, on the memory command.

    摘要: A module comprising a USB Type-C receptacle, a USB Type-C plug and a logic unit is disclosed. A power pin of the receptacle is connected with another power pin of the plug via a switch. A CC pin of the receptacle is connected to ground through a pull-down resistance. Another CC pin of the plug is connected to the logic unit through a pull-up resistance. The module connects with a power source device being a power sink-role in order to receive a source capability of the power source device, then turns on the switch and transforms itself to a power source-role. The module connects to a DRP device afterward being the power source-role to act for the power source device and perform a USB PD communication with the DRP device.
