DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SETTING CLOCK FREQUENCY/VOLTAGE OF CACHE MEMORY BASED ON INFORMATION OF MEMORY REQUEST Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC G06F1/3225 G06F12/802 

FIELD: computer equipment.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the computer equipment. Method for setting clock frequency/cache memory voltage, in which a memory request is received from a first component from a plurality of components, wherein plurality of components share a cache memory, and wherein plurality of components correspond to a plurality of clock signals; in response to receiving a memory request, identifying information in association with the memory request, using equipment that is in electrical communication with the cache memory, wherein the information in connection with the memory request comprises a memory request type, a data status which is a memory request object and a cache memory action caused by the memory request; based on said information, a clock frequency selection signal and a divider ratio signal are generated as a function of the memory request type, the data status and the cache memory action caused by the memory request; and setting the clock frequency of at least part of the cache memory by selecting one of the plurality of clock signals based on the clock frequency selection signal and dividing one of the plurality of clock signals based on the divider ratio signal.

EFFECT: technical result consists in improvement of energy saving.
