Abstract: Regulation of a voltage gradient may be provided. A plurality of test voltage values associated with a corresponding plurality of locations associated with an electronic device may be received. Then, based on the plurality of test voltage values, a target setpoint may be determined for a power supply that supplies power to the electronic device. The target setpoint may be configured to cause a maximum of voltage values at the plurality of locations to be below a maximum voltage level defined by a specification for the electronic device. The target setpoint may also be configured to cause a minimum of the voltage values at the plurality of locations to be above a minimum voltage level defined by the specification for the electronic device. The power supply may then be driven at the target setpoint.

Abstract: A multi-layer substrate stacking a plurality of insulating substrates supports one or more devices. Each substrate includes a face supporting conductive traces and edges surrounding the face at a substantially perpendicular angle. The multi-layer substrate includes a ground plane on a first substrate and a power plane on a second substrate. The ground plane is connected to at least one ground pad disposed on a first edge of the first substrate, which provides a low inductance ground path to the ground plane. The power plane is connected to at least one power pad disposed on a second edge of the second substrate, which provides a low inductance power path to the power plane.
