Aspects of the present disclosure provide a method of operating a system-on-chip (SoC). The method includes determining efficiency of a memory of the SoC over a defined period of time, calculating an adjusted bandwidth for operating the memory based on the determined efficiency, and adjusting at least one of a voltage or a clock of the memory corresponding to the adjusted bandwidth.

Power reduction via memory efficiency compensation

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for increasing processor caching efficiency by cache data pattern optimization. One embodiment includes a method for managing data in a cache, including: receiving data to be cached at the cache; determining that the data to be cached matches a predefined data pattern; and updating a tag RAM associated with the cache with a pattern tag comprising tag bits and pattern bits, wherein the pattern bits match the predefined data pattern.
