Abstract
Systems and devices configured to implement techniques for ensuring the completion of transactions while minimizing latency and power consumption are described. A device may be operably coupled to a bidirectional communications bus. A bidirectional communications bus may include a clock line and a data line. The device may be configured to determine if an initiated transaction corresponds to a device in a low power state. The device may pause the transaction. The device may replay portions of the transaction when the device is in an appropriate power state. The device may replay portions of the transaction using an override interface.
