ABSTRACT:
A communications circuit can operate with a data channel and a control channel. A changeable portion of the circuit can be reconfigurable between a first mode associated with activity on the control channel only and a second mode associated with activity on both the data channel and the control channel. The first mode can be selected to reduce power consumption compared to the second mode. Controller circuitry is provided to sense signals associated with the control channel and to switch the changeable portion between the first and second modes.
