Zusammenfassung:Clock control arrangements for integrated circuit devices are discussed herein. In one example, a method of operating an integrated circuit device includes monitoring an indication of pending operation for a processing core of an integrated circuit; and determining a predicted workload change for the processing core based at least on a portion of the indication of pending operation. The method further includes altering a clock frequency of a clock signal provided to the processing core based at least on the predicted workload change. 本文讨论了用于集成电路器件的时钟控制布置。在一个示例中,一种操作集成电路器件的方法包括监视针对集成电路的处理核的待决操作的指示;以及至少基于待决操作的指示的一部分来确定该处理核的所预测的工作负载变化。该方法还包括至少基于所预测的工作负载变化来更改提供给该处理核的时钟信号的时钟频率。
