Abstract
Techniques for a slope detector for voltage droop monitoring are described herein. An aspect includes receiving an input voltage by a circuit. Another aspect includes producing, by the circuit, a filtered offset voltage based on the input voltage. Another aspect includes determining whether the input voltage is lower than the filtered offset voltage. Yet another aspect includes, based on the input voltage being lower than the filtered offset voltage, indicating an imminent voltage droop condition in the input voltage.
