Abstract
An integrated circuit (IC) includes an array of compute units. Each compute unit is configured such that, when transitioning from not processing data to processing data, the compute unit makes an individual contribution to an aggregate time rate of change of current drawn by the IC. Control circuitry is configurable to, for each compute unit of the array of compute units, control when the compute unit is eligible to transition from not processing data to processing data relative to when the other compute units start processing data to mitigate supply voltage droop caused by the aggregate time rate of change of current drawn by the IC through inductive loads of the IC.
