Abstract: An apparatus comprises a programmable delay line (PDL) to receive a pulse-width modulation (PWM) signal as input and to generate a first output; a selection unit to provide PWM signal or its inverted version as a second output; and a sequential unit coupled to the PDL to sample the second output with the first output and to generate a pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) output. A voltage regulator comprises mutually coupled on-die inductors for coupling to a load; a bridge coupled to the mutually coupled on-die inductors, including a low-side switch and a high-side switch; a PWM controller for controlling the low-side and high-side switches during a first load current; and a PFM controller for controlling the low-side and high-side switches during a second load current, the second load current being smaller than the first load current, the PFM controller comprising a comparator and a first PDL coupled to the comparator.

Abstract: Described is a soft-start scheme for a voltage regulator. The apparatus comprises: a first voltage regulator to provide regulated voltage to an output node coupled to a load, the first voltage regulator operable to be in open loop via a bypass unit, the first voltage regulator including a comparator; and a second voltage regulator, coupled to the first voltage regulator, operable to be in closed loop, via the bypass unit, to provide a reference voltage for the comparator of the first voltage regulator.

Abstract: A method of an aspect includes receiving an indication of an attempt by a virtual machine to modify a paging structure identification storage location to have a given value. It is determined that the given value matches at least one of a set of one or more blacklist values. The attempt by the virtual machine to modify the paging structure identification storage location to have the given value is trapped to a virtual machine monitor. Other methods, apparatus, and systems are also disclosed.
