Abstract
A system and method for utilizing a feedback-based delay stabilization and power optimization circuit. One embodiment of the present invention is directed to an electronic circuit comprising an indicator operable to generate an indicator signal that is proportional to an actual operating speed of an integrated circuit that includes the indicator; and a comparator operable to compare the indicator signal to a reference signal and to generate from the comparison an error signal that is proportional to a difference between the operating speed and a desired operating speed. A signal combining circuit may then generate a feedback signal for a power supply based upon the error signal and an output signal of the power supply.
