A frequency divider module produces a 50% duty cycle divided local oscillation and a 50% duty cycle divided reference signal, wherein the divided signals are substantially equal. A period-to-voltage conversion module converts the divided local oscillation signal and the divided reference signal to voltages proportional to the divided signals. A comparator module produces a frequency adjustment signal based on a comparison of the proportional voltages and couples the frequency adjustment signal to a logic module which produces a frequency compensation signal based on the frequency adjustment signal. The frequency compensation signal functions to adjust the configuration of switched capacitors in a capacitor bank, coupled to the VCO tuned circuit, until the divided local oscillation signal is substantially equal to the divided reference signal.

A method and system of cooling hardware, sensing hardware, and supporting code streams that enables a non-redundant liquid cooling system to be used seemlessly in conjunction with an air cooling backup solution. The result offers system speed and reliability benefits of liquid cooling except for the brief occasions when the primary cooling system has failed and air cooling takes over. Until the liquid cooling is repaired, system clocks are automatically slowed to be compatible with the circuit speeds possible at the higher temperatures associated with air cooling. When the liquid cooling is repaired, the system clocks are automatically returned to their normal fast state. Depending on the circuit technology used, a supplied voltage may be varied while being air cooled.
