The MPC8xx processors have dynamic power management built into the silicon. If devices are idle or not enabled, they draw minimal or no power. The sleep/nap/doze power functions could be enabled to slow the processor core, and external clocks driving memory or other devices, but this would be custom to the external devices in a system. -- Dan ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
