29.3.2.4 Power Domain Status Register (PCU_PSTAT)
This register reflects the power status of all available power domains.
29.4 Functional description
29.4.1 General
The MC_PCU controls all available power domains on a device mode basis. The PCU_PCONFn registers 
specify during which system/user modes a power domain is powered up. The power state for each 
individual power domain is reflected by the bits in the PCU_PSTAT register.
On a mode change, the MC_PCU evaluates which power domain(s) must change power state. The power 
state is controlled by a state machine (FSM) for each individual power domain (see Figure
 3-1) which 
ensures a clean and safe state transition.
29.4.2 Reset / Power-On Reset
After any reset, the SoC will transition to the Reset mode during which all power domains are powered up 
(see the MC_ME chapter). Once the reset sequence has been completed, the DRUN mode is entered and 
software can begin the MC_PCU configuration.
29.4.3 MC_PCU Configuration
Per default, all power domains are powered in all modes other than Standby. Software can change the 
configuration for each power domain on a mode basis by programming the PCU_PCONFn registers.
