Abstract

See full text

A system includes one or more video processing components and a display processing unit. The display processing unit may include one or more processing pipelines that generate read requests to fetch stored pixel data from a memory for subsequent display on a display unit. The display processing unit may also include a timing control unit that may generate an indication that indicates that the display unit will enter an inactive state. In response to receiving the indication, one or more of the video processing components may enter a low power state.
