US Patent 7734939 Adaptive voltage adjustment

A method, system, module, apparatus, use, and computer program product are shown for determining a supply voltage level for operating an integrated circuit. To allow exact voltage level calibration, a high load condition is provided to the integrated circuit, a first voltage level of the integrated circuit is adjusted to provide a stable operation of the integrated circuit in the high load condition, a temperature of the integrated circuit in the high load condition is measured, the measured temperature in the high load condition is stored along with the adjusted first voltage level in the high load condition.
