Abstract
An integrated circuit (IC) includes a power grid having first, second, third, and fourth nodes for receiving first supply, first ground, second supply, and second ground voltage signals, respectively. A feedback circuit is connected to the second and fourth nodes for receiving the second supply and second ground voltage signals and generating a feedback voltage signal based on a difference between the second supply and second ground voltage signals. A resistor-ladder network receives the feedback signal and generates a sense voltage signal. A voltage regulator compares the sense voltage signal with a reference voltage signal and regulates the first supply voltage signal at a first voltage level.
