Zusammenfassung: | A device that includes at least one current consuming component. The device is characterized by including a compensation circuit adapted to compare between a voltage level at a sensing point within an integrated circuit and between a reference voltage derived from a voltage peak level at the sensing point; and to selectively increase the voltage at the sensing point in response to the comparison. A method for compensating for voltage drops in an integrated circuit, the method includes providing at least a first supply voltage to an integrated circuit; the method is characterized by including: comparing between a voltage level at a sensing point within an integrated circuit to a reference voltage derived from a voltage peak level at the sensing point; and selectively increasing the voltage at the sensing point in response to the comparison. |
