Example embodiments of core voltage margining apparatus include a plurality of voltage offset blocks disposed on a multi-core processor with each voltage offset block having a voltage input coupled to receive a supply voltage level, a control input coupled to receive an offset code, and a voltage output coupled to a respective core processor in the multi-core processor, with each voltage offset block configured to offset the supply voltage level by an voltage offset value programmed by an offset code received at the control input of the voltage offset block and a voltage offset register having a like plurality of control outputs each coupled to a corresponding control input of a voltage offset block, where the voltage output register is configured to hold an offset code for each voltage offset block and to provide the offset code, programming the voltage level of a selected voltage offset block, at the control output port coupled to the selected voltage offset block. |
