Abstract
Various embodiments of methods and systems for closed loop multimode sleep clock frequency compensation in a portable computing device are disclosed. An exemplary embodiment leverages a modem to determine a frequency shift on a sleep clock signal when a reference clock has transitioned into a power saving mode. Using the frequency shift calculation, a compensation capacitor may be adjusted to deliver a more optimum dummy load on the crystal oscillator when the reference clock is taken offline. The method may iterate through until the actual frequency shift of the sleep clock is within an acceptable tolerance relative to zero and, further, may also set a status bit to indicate that the sleep clock frequency is stable.
