ABSTRACT:
A system is provided that includes a power distribution network to provide a switching current and a resonance reduction circuit to sense the switching current within a frequency range and to generate a resonance reduction signal having a current component at substantially a same frequency and substantially 180 degrees out of phase from the sensed switching current. The power distribution network may combine the switching current with the resonance reduction signal to provide a total switching current that may be provided to a processor as the powering signal.
