    Abstract: A multi-die semiconductor package includes a first integrated circuit (IC) die having a first intrinsic performance level and a second IC die having a second intrinsic performance level different from the first intrinsic performance level. A power management controller distributes, based on a determined die performance differential between the first IC die and the second IC die, a level of power allocated to the semiconductor chip package between the first IC die and the second IC die. In this manner, the first IC die receives and operates at a first level of power resulting in performance exceeding its intrinsic performance level. The second IC die receives and operates at a second level of power resulting in performance below its intrinsic performance level, thereby reducing performance differentials between the IC dies.

    Abstract: Sampling circuitry independently accesses channels of texture data that represent a set of pixels. One or more processing units separately compress the channels of the texture data and store compressed data representative of the channels of the texture data for the set of pixels. The channels can include a red channel, a blue channel, and a green channel that represent color values of the set of pixels and an alpha channel that represents degrees of transparency of the set of pixels. Storing the compressed data can include writing the compress data to portions of a cache. The processing units can identify a subset of the set of pixels that share a value of a first channel of the plurality of channels and represent the value of the first channel over the subset of the set of pixels using information representing the value, the first channel, and boundaries of the subset.
