Abstract:
Apparatuses and Methods for dynamic adjustment of operating conditions of integrated circuits are provided. The method includes receiving, from a voltage reference module, an operating voltage of the integrated circuit, receiving a reference clock to be used as an operating frequency of the integrated circuit and is distributed to by the plurality of circuit blocks in the integrated circuit, measuring feedback path timing information of one or more circuit blocks in the plurality of circuit blocks, comparing the feedback path timing information of the one or more circuit blocks to the reference clock, determining timing margins of corresponding one or more feedback paths of the one or more circuit blocks based on the comparison, and generating a feedback for adjusting the operating voltage or the operating frequency of the integrated circuit based on the timing margins of the one or more feedback paths of the one or more circuit blocks.

Claim (Index 18):
The integrated circuit of  claim 17 , wherein the phase sampler is operated according to a feedback path data sampling window identified based on at least one of:\n a period when a corresponding feedback path data mask is asserted; or a trigger configured to indicate a period of measured performance data being sampled, wherein the trigger is generated based on a state of the feedback path or the trigger is generated to create a toggle of a launching flip flop of the feedback path based on a state of the launching flip flop.
