Systems or methods of the present disclosure may provide for gradually adjusting a frequency of a clock signal. When transitioning from a configuration mode to a user mode, a clock of an integrated circuit (e.g., a field-programmable gate array or FPGA) may quickly (e.g., instantaneously) switch from a low configuration mode frequency to a high user mode frequency. This rapid increase in clock frequency may cause an inrush current and corresponding current-resistance voltage (IR) drop. To reduce or avoid the inrush current and IR drop, a frequency of the clock may be gradually ramped up from the configuration mode frequency to the user mode frequency.
