ABSTRACT:
A method for using a single pin to support both power input and power control functions for an integrated circuit, wherein the integrated circuit is in communication with a system. The method includes receiving at the pin a power input signal from the system, generating a power control signal based on the power input signal through a control signal generating circuit, and sending the power control signal to the integrated circuit.
