Zusammenfassung:Systems, methods, and other embodiments are disclosed that are configured to provide on-chip current sensing by employing a power distribution network voltage de-convolution technique. A voltage signal on a voltage plane of a system-on-chip device is measured during operation of the system-on-chip device. The voltage signal derives from a power distribution network. The voltage signal is de-convolved, based at least in part on inverse convolution coefficients derived from the power distribution network, to recover a current signal being drawn by the system-on-chip device from the power distribution network.
