A system includes multiple processors and a power controller. Each processor includes a throttling engine. The power controller is to, in response to a determination that a first power consumption level exceeds a first threshold, assert a critical signal to each throttling engine of the plurality of processors. Further, for each processor, the throttling engine of the processor is to perform a sequence of multiple throttling states while the critical signal is asserted by the power controller, where the sequence of multiple throttling states is performed according to a state machine of the throttling engine. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

An integrated circuit (IC) die package substrate comprises a first trace upon, or embedded within, a dielectric material. The first trace comprises a first metal and a first via coupled to the first trace. The first via comprises the first metal and a second trace upon, or embedded within, the dielectric material. A second via is coupled to the second trace, and at least one of the second trace or the second via comprises a second metal with a different microstructure or composition than the first metal.

A DC-DC converter circuit includes a switched tank converter configured to output a switching waveform. The DC-DC converter circuit further includes a transformer coupled to the switched tank converter to receive the switching waveform output by the switched tank converter across a primary winding of the transformer.
