    摘要: In one embodiment, the present invention includes a processor with multiple cores each having a self-test circuit to determine a frequency profile and a leakage power profile of the corresponding core. In turn, a scheduler is coupled to receive the frequency profiles and the leakage power profiles and to schedule an application on at least some of the cores based on the frequency profiles and the leakage power profiles. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a memory system having a selectable configuration for sense amplifiers is disclosed. The memory system can include bit cells and a switch module coupled to the bit cell and to a first portion of a sense amplifier. The switch module can connect, disconnect or cross couple the bit cell to the sense amplifier based on a test for the input offset voltage of first portion of the sense amplifier. A similar configuration can be implemented by a second portion of the sense amplifier. The system can also include a programmer module to configure a setting of the switch module and can include a column select module to couple the bit cells to the sense amplifiers based on what column of bit cell is to be read. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for multi-phase transformers are described. In one embodiment, a coupled inductor topology for the multi-phase transformers comprising N primary inductors. In one embodiment, each primary inductor is coupled to one of N input nodes and a common output node. The transformer further includes N−1 secondary inductors coupled in series between one input node and the common output node. In one embodiment, the N−1 secondary inductors are arranged to couple energy from N−1 of the primary inductors to provide a common node voltage as an average of N input node voltages, wherein N is an integer greater than two. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
