Abstract
A method of detecting and mitigating an SEL is provided. The method includes measuring a current of a first circuit block of a semiconductor device and determining that the measured current exceeds a first threshold. In response to the measured current exceeding the first threshold, a supply voltage of the first circuit block is reduced from a nominal voltage value to a predetermined voltage value. After reducing the supply voltage to the predetermined voltage value, the supply voltage is restored to the nominal voltage value.
