Abstract

An electronic device includes a processor including a central processing unit (CPU) and a plurality of intellectual property (IP) blocks and a memory operationally connected with the processor. The memory stores one or more instructions, when executed, causing the processor to obtain a first voltage level of the electronic device, decrease a clock frequency of a first clock, which is a clock signal supplied to the CPU, when the obtained first voltage level is less than or equal to a specified first threshold voltage, and decrease at least one maximum clock frequency selected from a plurality of maximum clock frequencies, which is set in the CPU and the plurality of IP blocks, when the obtained first voltage level is less than or equal to the first threshold voltage after a first time elapses.
