Abstract
Sensing circuitry and clock management circuitry provide transient load management. The sensing circuitry detects a voltage, current, and/or activity associated with a system-on-chip (SoC) and determines whether the detected voltage, current, and/or activity meets a threshold. The clock management circuitry generates clocking signals for the SoC and alters a frequency of the generated clocking signals in response to the detected voltage, current, and/or activity meeting the threshold to alter an amount of power consumed by the SoC.
