Abstract:
An integrated circuit includes a plurality of functional units which are capable of operating at more than one power/performance level and a power control unit. The power control unit controls the power/performance consumption of the different functional units to optimize operation of the integrated circuit. Special power control instructions are added to user applications in order to control via the power control unit, the power consumption of the different functional units.
