Publication number: 20240085964Abstract: A system and method for updating power supply voltages due to variations from aging are described. A functional unit includes a power supply monitor capable of measuring power supply variations in a region of the functional unit. An age counter measures an age of the functional unit. A control unit notifies the power supply monitor to measure an operating voltage reference. When the control unit receives a measured operating voltage reference, the control unit determines an updated age of the region different from the current age based on the measured operating voltage reference. The control unit updates the age counter with the corresponding age, which is younger than the previous age in some cases due to the region not experiencing predicted stress and aging. The control unit is capable of determining a voltage adjustment for the operating voltage reference based on an age indicated by the age counter.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 20, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Sriram Sambamurthy, Sriram Sundaram, Indrani Paul, Larry David Hewitt, Anil Harwani, Aaron Joseph Grenat, Dana Glenn Lewis, Leonardo Piga, Wonje Choi, Karthik Rao

Publication number: 20230350480Abstract: Platform power management includes boosting performance in a platform power boost mode or restricting performance to keep a power or temperature under a desired threshold in a platform power cap mode. Platform power management exploits the mutually exclusive nature of activities and the associated headroom created in a temperature and/or power budget of a server platform to boost performance of a particular component while also keeping temperature and/or power below a threshold or budget.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 23, 2023Publication date: November 2, 2023Applicants: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., ATI Technologies ULCInventors: Indrani Paul, Sriram Sambamurthy, Larry David Hewitt, Kevin M. Lepak, Samuel D. Naffziger, Adam Neil Calder Clark, Aaron Joseph Grenat, Steven Frederick Liepe, Sandhya Shyamasundar, Wonje Choi, Dana Glenn Lewis, Leonardo de Paula Rosa Piga
