Abstract: A circuit for controlling a clock signal may include a voltage source that provides a bias voltage, and at least one delay element having a non-linear capacitive load coupled to an output of the delay element. The non-linear capacitive load receives the bias from the voltage source and controls a delay magnitude applied to a plurality of pulses of the clock signal by the delay element. Based on the bias having a first scaled voltage, the delay magnitude that is applied to the plurality of clock pulses is increased in order to generate a frequency correction to the operating frequency of a microprocessor based on a variation to a microprocessor supply voltage. Based on the bias having a second scaled voltage, the delay magnitude that is applied to the clock pulses is maintained to retain the operating frequency of the clock during the variation to the supply voltage.
