Abstract
A single droop detector and an asynchronous frequency recovery circuit may be used to slow down a frequency asynchronously when a voltage droop is detected and exit the droop event synchronously by gradually changing an electronic oscillator buffer capacitance until the frequency has been fully restored. This combination of a single droop detector and an asynchronous frequency recovery circuit may provide reduced detection and response latency. This solution may also provide improved performance in the presence of multiple voltage droop events that occur before a frequency has been fully restored from the previous droop. This solution also reduces or eliminates frequency overshoots and secondary voltage droops.
