Abstract: The disclosed systems and methods for current management can be used with system-on-a-chip (SoC) integrated circuits in, for example, battery-powered portable devices. The current management provides detection of supply current levels from a power management integrated circuit (PMIC) to an SoC. The PMIC signals, for example, using interrupts, the SoC when the supply current levels exceed thresholds. The SoC can then alter its operations to avoid exceeding the current capability of the PMIC. The current management can avoid the SoC experiencing a functional failure due to loss of power during high current conditions. Additionally, development methods can be used to optimize a system for various conditions besides the traditional worst-case design commonly used.
