Abstract:
Systems and methods for providing an indication of an output current of a voltage regulator applied to a load at an indicated time to a processor. An indication of the output current of a voltage regulator is determined in response to a clock signal received from a clock source and a frame number of a frame is determined from the clock source. The indication of the current output and the frame number of the associated frame are provided to the processor.
Abstract:
A method for design of a power delivery network (PDN) integrated with a digital design flow is provided. The method comprises receiving parameters for a PDN; receiving a model of logic circuitry for an integrated circuit; simulating operation of a plurality of configurations of the PDN for the model of logic circuitry over a specified range of minimum voltage; generating a netlist representation of a selected PDN configuration; and processing the netlist representation of the selected PDN configuration along with a digital circuit design for the logic circuitry.
