Abstract

See full text

A self-selected variable power integrated circuit (IC) which maximizes manufacturing yield and reduces system design cost and related methods are disclosed. The method includes determining characteristics of an integrated circuit (IC). The method includes determining a module specific voltage of the IC to meet a designed target frequency and power characteristics, based on the determined IC characteristics. The method includes setting the module specific voltage by using a combination of fuses within the IC.
