OPINION
We reverse.
Each of the independent claims 1, 11, 17, 21 and 23 calls
for, in one form or another, starting and/or stopping
operations of a processor and on-chip peripheral circuitry
independently of each other. Claim 11 specifically requires
the execution of different stops selectively determined by the
contents of said mode register.
