Abstract
A system-on-a-chip integrated circuit includes a multimedia module that produces rendered output data and a high-speed interface. A processing module generates output multimedia data in accordance with at least a portion of a multimedia application in response to input multimedia data received from either the multimedia module or the high-speed interface. The output multimedia data is provided to either the multimedia module or the high-speed interface. An on-chip DC-to-DC converter converts a battery voltage into a supply voltage that is coupled to the multimedia module, the high-speed interface, and/or the processing module.
