ABSTRACT:
A serial ATA interface interfaces an ASIC with a HDD. A transfer start monitoring unit monitors start of data transfer between the ASIC and the HDD and a transfer completion monitoring unit monitors completion of the data transfer. A power management control unit controls power consumption of the ASIC and the HDD based on monitoring results obtained from the transfer start monitoring unit and the transfer completion monitoring unit.
