Abstract: A system performs a method of adaptive voltage scaling. The method includes generating a voltage adjustment signal based on a hint from a frequency-locked loop (FLL). The FLL includes an oscillator that generates a clock signal at a clock frequency. The voltage adjustment signal is sent to a power management unit (PMU) to cause the PMU to supply an adjusted operating voltage to the FLL. The method further includes updating a minimum code set according to the adjusted operating voltage and an operating temperature. The clock frequency of the oscillator is generated to match a target frequency according to the adjusted operating voltage and a code determined by the FLL from the minimum code set.
