Abstract
Systems and methods for monitoring a number of operating conditions of a programmable device are disclosed. In some implementations, the system may include a root monitor including circuitry configured to generate a reference voltage, a plurality of sensors and satellite monitors distributed across the programmable device, and a interconnect system coupled to the root monitor and to each of the plurality of satellite monitors. Each of the satellite monitors may be in a vicinity of and coupled to a corresponding one of the plurality of sensors via a local interconnect. The interconnect system may include one or more analog channels configured to distribute the reference voltage to each of the plurality of satellite monitors, and may include one or more digital channels configured to selectively route digital data from each of the plurality of satellite monitors to the root monitor as data packets.
