Abstract: Described is an apparatus which comprises: a clamp coupled between a first power supply and a second power supply, the clamp including a plurality of transistors, a circuit to operate with the second power supply; and a control unit to turn on and off the plurality of transistors to adjust the second power supply when the apparatus enters a low power mode. The control unit includes a first comparator to compare the second power supply with a first reference, a second comparator to compare the second power supply with a second reference, and a counter. The counter counts up when the second power supply is higher than the first reference and counts down when the second power supply is lower than the second reference.

Abstract: Described is a controller that provides in-situ state retention using a closed loop global retention clamp. The controller addresses di/dt and reliability constraints using an adaptive scheme where steps with smaller current are quickly changed whereas steps with larger current are changed slowly. The loop controller of a voltage regulator is modified for controlling not only retention Vmin during a low power state (e.g., C1LP), but also to control fast wake up the low power state (e.g., from C1LP and from C6).

Abstract: Prior knowledge of access pattern is leveraged to improve energy dissipation for general matrix operations. This improves memory access energy for a multitude of applications such as image processing, deep neural networks, and scientific computing workloads, for example. In some embodiments, prior knowledge of access pattern allows for burst read and/or write operations. As such, burst mode solution can provide energy savings in both READ (RD) and WRITE (WR) operations. For machine learning or inference, the weight values are known ahead in time (e.g., inference operation), and so the unused bytes in the cache line are exploited to store a sparsity map that is used for disabling read from either upper or lower half of the cache line, thus saving dynamic capacitance.
