ADAPTIVE DYNAMIC CLOCK AND VOLTAGE SCALING

In each of two or more pipelined subsystems, the relative amount of time that the processing cores are idle may be determined. If the idle ratio is below a threshold, the clock frequency and voltage may be adjusted using dynamic clock and voltage scaling (DCVS) based on a power limit. However, if th...

Zusammenfassung:In each of two or more pipelined subsystems, the relative amount of time that the processing cores are idle may be determined. If the idle ratio is below a threshold, the clock frequency and voltage may be adjusted using dynamic clock and voltage scaling (DCVS) based on a power limit. However, if the idle ratio exceeds the threshold, the clock frequency and voltage may be decreased without regard to the power limit.
