Device, system and method to determine a power mode of a system-on-chip

A system comprising:

• an integrated circuit (IC) comprising:
• first circuitry to:
• receive first signals while the first circuitry is programmed based on multiple criteria which each correspond to a different respective power mode of multiple power modes of the IC, wherein the first signals indicate a state of the IC;
• and
• concurrently perform multiple evaluations each based on the state of the IC and a different respective criteria of the multiple criteria;
• second circuitry coupled to receive respective results of the multiple evaluations in parallel from the first circuitry, the second circuitry to select a first power mode based on the results;
• and
• third circuitry, responsive to the second circuitry, to generate second signals to transition the IC to the first power mode;
• and
• a display device coupled to the IC, the display device to display an image based on data communicated with the IC.

A system-on-chip (SOC) comprising:

• an array of circuit cells, the array comprising:
• columns which are coupled each to receive a different respective one of first signals which indicate a state of the SOC;
• rows to receive a programming which corresponds the rows each to a different respective criterion of multiple criteria which each correspond to a different respective power mode of the SOC, wherein, for each of the rows:
• cells of the row are operable each based on a different respective test condition of the corresponding criterion;
• and
• the row is to perform a respective evaluation based on the state of the SOC and the corresponding criterion;
• first circuitry coupled to receive evaluation results each from a different respective row of the array, the first circuitry to select a first power mode based on the evaluation results;
• and
• second circuitry to provide the first power mode responsive to the first circuitry.
