Adaptive power supply voltage transient protection system on a chip
The granted patent US12057697B2 describes a system on a chip (SoC) that integrates a power supply, voltage transient sensors, and a power control processing entity. The power supply is designed to provide power to one or more processors within the SoC. The voltage transient sensors are connected to the power supply and are capable of detecting voltage transients at a speed exceeding a predetermined threshold. The power control processing entity receives digital representations of these sensed voltage transients and adjusts the power load of the SoC accordingly. This adjustment can involve modifying the processing activities of the processors based on the voltage transients detected.
Additionally, the patent outlines the use of multiple voltage transient sensors positioned at various locations within the SoC. This configuration allows for a more granular adjustment of power loads across different sections of the chip, based on the specific voltage transients sensed by each sensor. The power control processing entity can correlate the timing of voltage transients with the processing activities of the SoC to optimize performance. The patent also specifies that the predetermined speed for sensing voltage transients is set faster than the rate at which the power supply can change, ensuring timely responses to voltage fluctuations. The sensors utilize advanced techniques, such as high-speed analog-to-digital converters and multiple sampling methods, to accurately capture and respond to voltage changes, thereby enhancing the efficiency and stability of the SoC's operation.
