Zusammenfassung:A system includes a first processor and a second processor coupled to the first processor through a high speed connection and a low speed connection. The first processor and the second processor are disposed within a first device. The first processor and the second processor exchange heartbeat signals therebetween through the low speed connection. The first processor communicates a first reset signal through a reset line to the second processor when the first processor does not receive a first heartbeat signal of the heartbeat signals from the second processor. The second processor resets in response to the first reset signal.
