Abstract
An apparatus for controlling a supply voltage to an electronic processing arrangement comprising a processor or a memory element, the apparatus being configured to receive an output of the electronic processing arrangement and comprising: error detection means for detecting errors in an output of the electronic processing arrangement; and means for adaptively varying the supply voltage to the electronic processing arrangement based on an analysis of errors detected in the output of the electronic processing arrangement. The apparatus may further comprise means for correcting errors detected in the output of the electronic processing arrangement.
