US Patent 11449127 Peak power determination for an integrated circuit device

Peak power setting circuitry is provided to set a peak power value for an integrated circuit device. A power supply interface is to receive a value to estimate a peak power capacity of a power supply serving the integrated circuit device and processing circuitry is provided to calculate an approximate peak power for the integrated circuit device. A peak power for the integrated circuit device is determined by increasing the approximate peak power depending on an amount by which the integrated circuit device power is reduced in response to assertion of a throttling signal.
