Abstract
Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with a low power audio codec are described. According to one embodiment, an audio codec includes an audio buffer configured to store decoded audio data received from an application processor external to the audio codec. The application processor is configured to decode audio data in a RUN mode. The audio codec is configured to store, in the audio buffer, decoded audio data received from the application processor when the application processor is in IDLE mode and provide the stored decoded audio data to an audio device while the application processor is in a low power mode.
