Integrated circuit devices, systems, machine-readable media, and methods are provided to reduce power consumption by supplying a lower voltage to an embedded application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) block of a programmable logic device than an overall supply voltage while still achieving target performance. An integrated circuit device according this disclosure may include programmable logic circuitry configurable to be set to operate at a first voltage and a first ASIC block configurable to be set to operate at a second voltage different than the first voltage.
An integrated circuit device comprising:
An article of manufacture comprising one or more tangible, non-transitory, machine-readable media comprising instructions that, when executed by a data processing system, cause the data processing system to perform operations comprising:
An article of manufacture comprising one or more tangible, non-transitory, machine-readable media comprising a system design configuration of an integrated circuit device that comprises supply voltage settings that define a first supply voltage for a first embedded application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) block of an integrated circuit device that is lower than an overall supply voltage of the integrated circuit device that is supplied to field programmable gate array (FPGA) soft logic circuitry of the integrated circuit device.
