  • Processor to pre-empt voltage ramps for exit latency reductions
    Patent number: 11119555
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a processor includes a plurality of cores and a power controller. This power controller in turn may include a voltage ramp logic to pre-empt a voltage ramp of a voltage regulator from a first voltage to a second voltage, responsive to a request for a second core to exit a low power state. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 19, 2019
    Date of Patent: September 14, 2021
    Assignee: Intel Corporation
