Predictive voltage transient reduction in integrated circuits

Abstract:

Power control arrangements for integrated circuit devices are discussed herein. In one example, an assembly includes an integrated circuit device comprising one or more processing cores and a power domain configured to distribute a supply voltage to the one or more processing cores. The assembly also includes a charge injection circuit coupled to the power domain of the integrated circuit device, and configured to selectively couple electric charge into the power domain to predictively offset at least portions of voltage transients in the power domain.
