摘要: Methods and apparatuses provide voltage regulation for a processor. Control or configuration parameters regulator (VR) are provided digitally over bus to VR controller. The may be directly from storage element, via processing element processor core. Based in whole part on the parameters, controller provides an output control signal affect power converter element. In one embodiment, is integrated onto same IC as
