Abstract:
Described is an apparatus which comprises: a first voltage regulator (VR) coupled to first one or more inductors, the first VR is to provide power to a first power domain; and a second VR coupled to second one or more inductors at least one of which is inductively coupled to at least one of the first one or more inductors, the second VR is to provide power to a second power domain separate from the first power domain, wherein there is a non-zero phase angle offset between switching transistors of the first VR relative to the second VR.
Abstract:
Described is an analog to digital converter (ADC) which comprises: a sigma-delta modulator to receive an analog signal, the sigma-delta modulator operable to perform chopping to cancel common-mode noise; and one or more counters coupled to the sigma-delta modulator to generate a digital code representative of the analog signal.
Abstract:
An Integrated Circuit (IC) package is provided, comprising a first IC die having a first capacitor and a logic circuit, and a second IC die having a second capacitor. The first IC die and the second IC die may be stacked within the IC package one on top of another and electrically coupled with die-to-die interconnects. The logic circuit is electrically coupled in a power delivery network to the first capacitor and the second capacitor. The first IC die and the second IC die include respective back-end-of-line portions in which the first capacitor and the second capacitor, which may comprise metal-insulator-metal capacitors in some embodiments are situated. In some embodiments, the second capacitor is situated in a shadow of the logic circuit. In various embodiments, the first IC die and the second IC die comprise any suitable pair in a plurality of stacked IC dies within an IC package.
