Abstract

An electronic apparatus with power saving functionality is disclosed. The electronic apparatus has a first signal processing circuit and a second signal processing circuit. The first signal processing circuit includes a receiver logic for processing at least a satellite signal generated from a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) to obtain resultant data; and a power saving determination logic for monitoring an operation status of the receiver logic and generating a first control signal according to the operation status. The second signal processing circuit includes a processing logic for receiving the resultant data from the receiver logic for further signal processing; and a power saving trigger logic for controlling the processing logic to enter a power saving mode from a normal mode when receiving the first control signal from the power saving control logic.
