Abstract

A computer-implemented method for detecting n-level slopes for a voltage level in a processor, wherein n is greater than 1, includes monitoring a voltage in a processor for a voltage level corresponding to a predefined first edge, and monitoring for a voltage level corresponding to a predefined second edge within a first count limit from detection of the predefined first edge. In response to detecting the predefined second edge within the first count limit, the computer-implemented method includes monitoring for a voltage level corresponding to a predefined third edge within a second count limit from detection of the predefined second edge, and in response to detecting the predefined third edge within the second count limit, determining whether to adjust a power applied to the processor based on the monitored voltage levels.
