Abstract:
An embodiment includes a circuit block configured to distribute a power signal to a plurality of voltage sense signals, and a voltage regulator configured to generate a regulated voltage level on the power signal. The embodiment also includes a sensing circuit configured to perform a sequence of comparisons of respective voltage levels of the plurality of voltage sense signals using a selection criterion. To perform the sequence of comparisons, the sensing circuit may be configured to select either a first voltage sense signal or a second voltage sense signal to generate a first output voltage sense signal. The sensing circuit may also be configured to select either a third voltage sense signal or a previously generated output voltage sense signal to generate a feedback signal. The voltage regulator circuit may be further configured to modify the regulated voltage level using the feedback signal.
