Abstract
The present disclosure describes methods and systems for data storage or other devices that are L1 sub-state capable, to be able to enter these sub-states while on the same network or bus as a device not enabled for transition to an L1 sub-state. In some embodiments, when an LTSSM circuit in a MAC of a PCIe device indicates an L1 idle state, an L1 sub-state (L1SS) timer is initiated in a CLKREQ on the device. Upon expiration of the timer, a CLKREQ_in emulator de-asserts its signal on the MAC, causing the MAC to enter an L1SS.
