Abstract

A power throttling engine includes a register configured to receive a power throttling signal. The power throttling engine further includes a decoder configured to generate a vector based on a value of the power throttling signal. The value of the power throttling signal is an amount of power throttling of a device. The power throttling engine further includes a clock gating logic configured to receive the vector and further configured to receive a clocking signal. The clock gating logic is configured to remove clock edges of the clocking signal based on the vector to generate a throttled clocking signal.
