Abstract:

Various embodiments provide a health monitor circuit including an n-type sensor to determine a first health indicator associated with n-type transistors of a circuit block and a p-type sensor to determine a second health indicator associated with p-type transistors of the circuit block. The n-type sensor and p-type sensor may be on a same die as the circuit block. The health monitor circuit may further include a control circuit to adjust one or more operating parameters, such as operating voltage and/or operating frequency, for the circuit block based on the first and second health indicators. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
