Abstract:
A system and method for communication link management in a credit-based system is disclosed. In one embodiment, a system includes first and second functional circuit blocks implemented on an integrated circuit and being able to communicate with one another through establishment of source synchronous links. The first functional circuit block includes a write queue for storing data and information regarding write requests sent from the second functional circuit block. The write queue includes credit management circuitry arranged to convey one or more credits to the second functional circuit block responsive to receiving one or more write requests therefrom. Responsive to receiving the one or more credits and in the absence of any pending additional requests, the second functional circuit block may deactivate a link with the first functional circuit block.

Claim (Index 11):
The method as recited in  claim 10 , wherein deactivating the communications link comprises the second functional circuit block discontinuing conveying a clock signal to the first functional circuit block.
