==APPLICATION PROCESSOR, MOBILE DEVICE HAVING THE SAME, AND METHOD OF SELECTING A CLOCK SIGNAL FOR AN APPLICATION PROCESSOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18156662 titled 'APPLICATION PROCESSOR, MOBILE DEVICE HAVING THE SAME, AND METHOD OF SELECTING A CLOCK SIGNAL FOR AN APPLICATION PROCESSOR

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes an application processor that includes a main central processing device, internal and external clock sources, and a sensor sub-system. The processor operates based on an external main clock signal in active mode and an internal clock signal or external sub clock signal in sleep mode. The sensor sub-system processes sensing-data from sensors on a predetermined cycle.

* The application processor includes a main central processing device.
* The processor operates based on an external main clock signal in active mode.
* It also includes at least one internal clock source that generates an internal clock signal.
* The sensor sub-system processes sensing-data received from at least one sensor module.
* The sensor sub-system operates on a predetermined cycle.
* The processor can operate in active mode or sleep mode.
* The sensor sub-system operates based on the internal clock signal or an external sub clock signal.
* The choice of clock signal depends on the required operating speed for processing the sensing-data.

==Potential Applications==
* Mobile devices: The application processor can be used in smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices to process sensor data efficiently.
* Internet of Things (IoT): The processor can be integrated into IoT devices to handle sensor data processing.
* Wearable devices: The application processor can be utilized in smartwatches, fitness trackers, and other wearable devices to process sensor data accurately.

==Problems Solved==
* Efficient processing: The application processor optimizes the processing of sensing-data by utilizing different clock signals based on the operating speed required.
* Power management: The processor can operate in sleep mode and still process sensor data, reducing power consumption.
* Real-time processing: The predetermined cycle of the sensor sub-system ensures timely processing of sensing-data.

==Benefits==
* Improved performance: The use of different clock signals allows for efficient processing of sensing-data, enhancing overall performance.
* Power efficiency: The ability to operate in sleep mode while processing sensor data reduces power consumption.
* Real-time data processing: The predetermined cycle of the sensor sub-system ensures timely processing of sensing-data, enabling real-time applications.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

An application processor includes a main central processing device that operates based on an external main clock signal received from at least one external clock source when the application processor is in an active mode, at least one internal clock source that generates an internal clock signal, and a sensor sub-system that processes sensing-data received from at least one sensor module on a predetermined cycle when the application processor is in the active mode or a sleep mode, and that operates based on the internal clock signal or an external sub clock signal received from the external clock source depending on an operating speed required for processing the sensing-data.
