  • Method and apparatus for dynamic power control of a low power processor
    Patent number: 6519707
    Abstract: Briefly, in accordance with one embodiment of the invention, a system includes: a processor, a voltage regulator, and a memory. The voltage regulator is coupled to the processor to adjust the operating voltage of the processor. The memory is coupled to the processor by a memory bus. The memory has stored on it processor instructions that, when executed by the processor, result in modification of the operating frequency of the processor and result in adjustment of the operating voltage of the processor, based, at least in part, on dynamic changes in the processing load of the processor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 10, 2001
    Date of Patent: February 11, 2003
    Assignee: Intel Corporation
    Inventors: Lawrence T. Clark, Bart McDaniel, Jay Heeb, Tom J. Adelmeyer
