1, the administration of energy conservation unit of chip A notifies its distributor to start can only take out from the bursty data module units valid data (data that comprised simultaneously burst control word, data word and free word) of n-1 64Bits from the next work period at every turn, and toll offering distributor can only be to encoder 1 to encoder n-1 allocative efficiency data.Simultaneously, administration of energy conservation unit toll offering distributor continues to send free word to the encoder n in sendaisle n;
2, after this, the administration of energy conservation unit starts the message of generation " corresponding receive path is closed in request " and sends into distributor, by distributor, this message is inserted the burst control word.The burst control word is fed to chip B by sendaisle 1 to one of them of passage n-1.
3, subsequently, the multiplexer of chip A continues to monitor the data that take in, and, when the burst control word of finding to carry " corresponding receive path is closed in agreement " message, informs the administration of energy conservation unit.
4, the administration of energy conservation unit after the announcement of receiving multiplexer, is closed sendaisle n(and is comprised encoder n, framer n, transmitter n).
Accordingly, the flow process of chip B is as follows:
1, multiplexer continues to monitor the data that take in, when the burst control word of finding to carry " corresponding receive path is closed in request " message, according to the channel number n that carries in " corresponding receive path is closed in request " message, go to add up the quantity of the free word that after this passage n receive.
2, when multiplexer finds that receive path n receives at least x free word continuously, inform the administration of energy conservation unit.Parameter x generally can be made as 8~64, but for example default setting is 16.
3, the administration of energy conservation unit after the announcement that receives multiplexer, is closed receive path n(and is comprised receiver n, deframer n, decoder n).Simultaneously, the administration of energy conservation unit sends " corresponding receive path is closed in agreement " message to distributor, by distributor, this message is inserted the burst control word.This burst control word is fed to chip A by certain sendaisle of chip B.
Variation when the administration of energy conservation unit of chip A according to data traffic, while determining to reopen pent n paths (withdrawing from power save mode), its workflow is as follows:
1, at first, pent encoder n, framer n and transmitter n are opened in the administration of energy conservation unit of chip A.At this moment, distributor still distributes free word at the encoder n that is sendaisle n.
2, the administration of energy conservation unit sends the message of " corresponding receive path is opened in request " to distributor, by distributor, this information is inserted the burst control word.This burst control word is fed to chip B by one of them of sendaisle 1-n.
3, after this, multiplexer continues to monitor the data that take in, and, when the burst control word of finding to carry " corresponding receive path is opened in agreement " message, informs the administration of energy conservation unit.
