    Abstract: A voltage tracking circuit includes delay line blocks, a phase detector delay line block, phase detection circuitry, and a controller. The controller determines a first voltage based on a quantity of active delay line blocks among the plurality of delay line blocks and determines a second voltage based on information received from the phase detection circuitry. The controller determines a measured value of a voltage provided by the voltage regulator voltage based on the first voltage and the second voltage.

    Abstract: An example method for scan-based voltage frequency scaling can include performing a plurality of at-speed scan operation on a system on chip (SoC) at a plurality of respective voltage values. The example method can include entering data gathered from at least one of the plurality of at-speed scan operations into a database. The entered data is associated with the respective plurality of voltage value. The example method can include determining a particular voltage value of the respective plurality of voltage values at which a parameter of the SoC reaches a threshold. The example method can include indicating the determined particular voltage in the database. The indicated determined particular voltage in the database can be used for performing one or more operations using the SoC.

    Abstract: A plurality of flip-flops of an integrated circuit (IC) (e.g., an ASIC) are electrically connected in a predefined series. The scan input gate of any give flip-flop in the predefined series is electrically connected to one of a Q output gate or a Q-bar output gate of an adjacent flip-flop in the predefined series. A reset operation for the IC occurs by feeding a bit string of identical bits (e.g., all zeros) through the scan input gate of a first flip-flop of the plurality of flip-flops to reset the plurality of flip-flops without the need for resetting circuitry and accompanying power savings for the IC.

    Abstract: Clock enable signals are collected and summed. The number of simultaneously enabled clock enable signals can represent switching activity within a system and can be used as an indicator for power management, noise management, etc. of such a system. Digital switching activity sensing include performance of an operation to sum a quantity of open clock gates associated with a plurality of latches that are grouped into multiple subsets of latches. An activity indication is generated based, at least in part, on a result of the operation to sum the quantity of open clock gates associated with the plurality of latches.
