Abstract:
Measurement circuit components are included in an integrated circuit fabricated on a semiconductor substrate. These measurement circuits are connected to a voltage regulation circuit that provides the integrated circuit voltage source. These measurement circuits provide signals to control the voltage regulation circuit to adjust the voltage output to the integrated circuit based upon a measurement values obtained on the semiconductor device. These measurements include temperature and IR drop at locations on the semiconductor substrate, along with the frequency response of integrated circuit.
