    Abstract: A dynamic power meter circuit receives a set of clock signals. The clock signals are summed by a clock sum adder, thereby generating a clock sum value. A dynamic power meter output value is generated based at least in part on the clock sum value. In one particular example, a dynamic power meter circuit receives clock signals and from them generates a clock sum model sub-value. The dynamic power meter circuit also receives event signals, and from them generates an architectural event model sub-value. A corresponding pair of clock sum model sub-value and architectural event model sub-value are then ratiometrically combined, thereby generating a dynamic power meter output value. Due to the use of both event signals and clock signals, a stream of dynamic power meter output values is generated that more closely tracks actual dynamic power of a circuit being monitored.

    Abstract: A voltage controller circuit is provided for dynamic frequency and voltage scaling. The voltage controller circuit receives an error signal indicating a frequency error and a code error. The frequency error indicates a first difference between a target frequency and an actual frequency generated by an oscillator, and the code error indicates a second difference between a minimum code and an actual code with which the oscillator is configured to generate the actual frequency. The minimum code corresponds to a maximum frequency that the oscillator generates for a processor to safely operate under a given voltage. The voltage controller circuit calculates a voltage correction value based on the error signal, a first gain parameter for the frequency error, and a second gain parameter for the code error, and sends a request to a power management circuit to cause an updated voltage to be supplied to the processor.
