Abstract
An integrated circuit () has first and second domains (). The first domain has a power controller () to control the power state of at least one device () in the second domain based on power management signals exchanged on a power management channel () between the first and second domains A reset isolation bridge () is provided on the power management channel () between the first and second domains (). The bridge () has first and second interfaces () to exchange the power management signals with the first and second domains respectively. Isolating circuitry () is provided in the bridge () to respond to a reset indication () indicating reset of one of the first and second domains, to isolate state transitions of the power management signals at the first and second interfaces () from each other.
