DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING THE PERFORMANCE LEVEL OF THE DEVICE BASED ON FLUCTUATIONS IN INTERNAL TEMPERATURE AND METHOD THEREOF

摘要

An electronic device, a method of controlling the performance level of the electronic device, and a chipset thereof is provided. The electronic device includes a sensor module configured to measure an internal temperature of the electronic device, a surface temperature predicting module to predict a surface temperature of the electronic device using the internal temperature measured by the sensor module, and a processor to control the performance level of the electronic device based on the predicted surface temperature. The method includes measuring an internal temperature of the electronic device; predicting a surface temperature of the electronic device using the measured internal temperature; and controlling the performance level of the electronic device based on the predicted surface temperature.
