ABSTRACT:
A method includes providing an integrated circuit (IC) having a plurality of oscillators at distributed locations in the IC, determining a respective rate of oscillation of each of the oscillators, and detecting variations in local temperature in the IC based on the determined rates of oscillation. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
