Patent ID: 8204367

Claim:
A method for transitioning a video system, comprising the steps of: (A) executing in a processing circuit a standby code stored in a nonvolatile memory while said processing circuit is in a low power configuration and a remainder of said video system is in a power off condition, said standby code being responsive to a plurality of wake up conditions to wake up said video system; (B) storing an application code in a volatile memory, said application code configured to operate said video system while said video system is in a power on condition; (C) transitioning from said standby code to said application code upon detection of at least one of said wake up conditions; (D) executing in said processing circuit said application code to decode video; and (E) enabling a frequency of a clock system by said processing circuit before or during said transitioning, wherein said frequency is disabled when said processing circuit enters said low power configuration.
