Abstract
The CPU speed is apparently decreased, and current consumption is reduced by asserting a stop clock (STPCLK#) signal at a predetermined interval. When a system event (INTR, NMI, SMI, SRESET, and INIT) occurs, assertion of the STPCLK# signal is inhibited for a predetermined time to allow a high-speed operation. In an ISA refresh cycle, by asserting the STPCLK# signal instead of a conventional HOLD/HLDA cycle, the refresh cycle is executed in a stop grant state.
