Overview
SGC21713_IP007708_GF_22FDX can be used in a control loop to minimize the voltage for a given frequency or maximize frequency for a given voltage. Based on a group of sensors, it permits PVT and aging tracking, while allowing the identification of the actual variable that changed. Designed to achieve 3% overall accuracy (over Load / Line / Temp), it is specified from TJ = –40°C to +125°C.
Key features
- Sensitive to Process, Voltage, Temperature, Frequency
- and Aging
- Sensor for dynamic voltage and frequency optimization
- No impact on the digital design flow
- Configurable monitoring period
- 8-bit Resolution
