Abstract
A system includes a multicore chip configured to perform machine learning (ML) operations. The system also includes a power monitoring module configured to measure power consumption of the multicore chip on a main power rail of the multicore chip. The power monitoring module is further configured to assert a signal in response to the measured power consumption exceeding a first threshold. The power monitoring module is further configured to transmit the asserted signal to a power throttling module to initiate a power throttling for the multicore chip.
