Abstract
Systems and methods are provided that may be implemented to dynamically manage voltage regulator switching frequency. In one embodiment, the disclosed systems and methods may be implemented to dynamically find the optimal voltage regulator switching frequency based on the load current (I) and efficiency in a switching voltage regulator device (VR), such as a voltage regulator down device (VRD) that is embedded on a system board of an information handling system.
