Abstract
In certain aspects of the disclosure, a system includes an isolation device coupled between a first circuit in a first power domain and a second circuit in a second power domain. The system also includes a second power source coupled to a power distribution network, wherein the power distribution network is configured to distribute power from a first power source to the second power domain. The system further includes a failure detector having an input coupled to a node on the power distribution network located upstream of the second power source, and an output coupled to the isolation device, wherein the failure detector is configured to sense a voltage at the node, to detect a power loss of the first power source based on the sensed voltage, and to enable the isolation device in response to detection of the power loss.
