Abstract
Dynamic voltage frequency scaling to transition to a target clock frequency and associated target voltage is provided. Dynamic voltage frequency scaling to a different clock frequency is performed by gradually changing the clock frequency using discrete variable-size steps, while dynamically switching to faster or slower reference clock frequencies as appropriate to harmonize the frequency trajectory with system requirements.
