Abstract
A semiconductor platform for implementing multiple-frequency operations includes multiple physical resources comprising embedded functions and a configurable transistor fabric. The transistor fabric includes at least first and second portions, the first portion being programmable to instantiate a first function having higher frequency operations than the second portion. The platform further includes multiple logical resources corresponding to the physical resources of the semiconductor platform and a configurable power mesh to support multiple frequency operations configurable from the transistor fabric. The power mesh includes at least first and second configurable grids. The first configurable grid is operable at a different frequency than the second configurable grid. The power mesh is modifiable, as a function of a desired performance of a customer's requirements, in a vicinity of the first portion of the configurable transistor fabric to support the first function having higher frequency operations.
