Temperature-based voltage management

An apparatus, comprising:

• a voltage regulator;
• and voltage management circuitry, wherein the voltage management circuitry is configured to:
• receive signaling indicative of a temperature of a circuit portion area coupled to the voltage management circuitry;
• receive signaling indicative of a voltage or a current of the circuit portion area;
• receive signaling indicative of quality characteristics of the circuit portion area, including a classification of the circuit portion area into one of a plurality of types;
• generate, based on the signaling indicative of temperature of the circuit portion area, the signaling indicative of the voltage or the current of the circuit portion area, and the signaling indicative of the classification, a voltage management control signal;
• and transfer the voltage management control signal to the voltage regulator, wherein the voltage regulator is configured to generate a voltage signal in response to receipt of the voltage management control signal to control an amount of power consumed by the circuit portion area.

A system, comprising:

• a voltage regulator;
• a first circuit portion area;
• a first sensor located at the first circuit portion area;
• a second circuit portion area;
• a second sensor located at the second circuit portion area;
• and voltage management circuitry coupled to the first sensor, the second sensor, and the voltage regulator, wherein the voltage management circuitry is configured to:
• receive signaling indicative of a voltage, a current, or a temperature, or any combination thereof, associated with the first circuit portion area from the first sensor;
• receive signaling indicative of quality characteristics of the first circuit portion area, including a classification of the first circuit portion area;
• receive signaling indicative of a voltage, a current, or a temperature, or any combination thereof, associated with the second circuit portion area from the second sensor;
• receive signaling indicative of quality characteristics of the second circuit portion area, including a classification of the second circuit portion area;
• generate, based on the received signaling from the first sensor, the received signaling from the second sensor, and the signaling indicative of the classifications, a voltage management control signal;
• and transfer the voltage management control signal to the voltage regulator, wherein the voltage regulator is configured to:
• generate a voltage signal in response to receipt of the voltage management control signal;
• and
• apply the voltage signal to the first circuit portion area or the second circuit portion area, or both to control an amount of power consumed by the first circuit portion area, the second circuit portion area, or both.
