Abstract
In a multimedia system, a method and system for input/output pads in a mobile multimedia processor are provided. Input, output, and/or bidirectional pads in a host bus interface and/or a slave bus interface may be configured to provide bypass capabilities when a mobile multimedia processor is powered down or hibernating. The pads may be adapted to provide pull-up and pull-down capabilities. The pull-up and pull-down capabilities may be dynamically programmed.
