Abstract:
Methods, apparatuses, and systems are disclosed to facilitate power management of asynchronous logic devices to operate asynchronous logic devices at a desired level of processing throughput with minimal power consumption. A plurality of completion signals is received from a processing circuit. Each of the plurality of completion signals identifies an associated operation has been completed by the processing circuit. A plurality of phase signals is generated where the plurality of phase signals includes a respective phase signal generated at a time when each of the plurality of completion signals is expected to be received. A plurality of time differences is determined where each of the time differences is based on a difference between receipt of a completion signal and the respective phase signal generated at the time when the completion signal is expected to be received. A composite difference of the time differences is totaled. A voltage supplied to the processing circuit is adjusted based on the composite difference.
