ABSTRACT:
A method, and a system of using the method, of preserving memory of a processor powered by an external source. The method includes determining a drop in a first power to be supplied to the processor, generating a reset signal when the drop falls below a threshold, supplying a second power from a power store to the processor based on the reset signal, and holding the reset signal until the first power rises above the threshold.
