Embodiment Construction

[0026] image 3 It is a specific embodiment of the present invention, which is a structural diagram of a control system with a CPU. As shown in the figure, the control system is composed of CPU, bus interface, several register modules and clock generator.

[0027] In order to achieve the purpose of reducing the power consumption of the system, in this embodiment, a clock gating unit of each register module is set in the clock generator, and each register module is provided with the required access clock. The frequency of the access clock obtained by each register module should not be less than the fastest working clock of the module, and the optimal solution is that both have the same frequency and phase. In this embodiment, each register module uses its own fastest working clock as the register access clock, and since the frequency of the working clock is generally slower than the bus clock, power consumption is reduced. At the same time, since the gate control unit is plac...

Abstract

The invention discloses a control system of a low power consumption read / write register. The control system comprises a bus interface, a plurality of register modules and a clock generator, wherein, the clock generator comprises clock gate control units that respectively generate clock signals with the frequency lower than that of a bus clock, the clock signals are output to the corresponding register modules to act as a visit clock of the register; the bus interface comprises a read / write data synchronous unit of the register modules which can respectively realize data reading and writing to different register modules of the bus interface. As the invention improves the clock signal generation method involving the read / write part of the register in the control system, leads the working clocks of different register modules to be mutual-independent, and carries out dynamic gate control according to respective work or idle status, and modifies the position of the gate control unit, therefore, the power consumption of the system is greatly reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a control system and method for reading and writing registers with low power consumption. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of industrial control technology, the design requirements for low power consumption are becoming more and more stringent, especially in various embedded control systems, low power consumption indicators often become the key to whether new products can be mass-produced and accepted by the market critical factor. [0003] All kinds of control systems involve the read and write operations of registers, and reducing the power consumption of this operation will contribute to the overall low power consumption of the system. figure 1 It is a system structure diagram with a CPU in the prior art. As shown in the figure, all modules related to register reading and writing in the prior art, including the bus interface and each register module, have the same clock signal and are all genera...
