Abstract:
The disclosure concerns an integrated circuit comprising: a plurality of circuit domains, each circuit domain comprising: a plurality of transistor devices positioned over p-type and n-type wells, the transistor devices defining one or more data paths of the circuit domain; a monitoring circuit adapted to detect when the slack time of at least one of the data paths in the circuit domain falls below a threshold level and to generate an output signal on an output line based on said detection; and a biasing circuit adapted to modify a biasing voltage of the n-type and/or p-type well of the circuit domain.

Claim (Index 6):
A method comprising:\n in each circuit domain of a plurality of circuit domains of an integrated circuit that include a plurality of monitoring circuits, respective, and a plurality of biasing circuits, respectively, detecting, by the monitoring circuit in the circuit domain, when a slack time of at least one data path in the circuit domain falls below a threshold level and generating an output signal on an output line based on said detecting, wherein each circuit domain comprises a plurality of transistor devices positioned over p-type and n-type wells, the transistor devices defining one or more data paths of the circuit domain; and in each circuit domain, modifying, by the biasing circuit of the circuit domain, a biasing voltage of at least one of the n-type wells and p-type wells of the circuit domain, wherein the p-type and n-type wells in each circuit domain comprise a plurality of p-type wells electrically coupled together and a plurality of n-type wells electrically coupled together and said n-type and p-type wells extend across the plurality of circuit domains.
