TEMPERATURE REGULATION OF A CPU

摘要

A method to regulate a temperature of a central processing unit is provided herein. The method monitors a temperature of a central processing unit. The method obtains a power state of the central processing unit and a fan speed of a fan associated with the central processing unit. The temperature of the central processing unit is decreased by reducing the power state, in response to a determination that the temperature is at least one of equal to or greater than the predefined temperature threshold; the fan speed is at least one of equal to or greater than a maximum speed threshold; and the power state is greater than a lowest power state threshold.

1. An apparatus to regulate a temperature of a central processing unit, the apparatus comprising:
a monitor module to obtain
the temperature of the central processing unit,a power state of the central processing unit, anda speed of a fan associated with the central processing unit; and a control module to incrementally reduce the power state, in response to a determination that:
the temperature is at least one of equal to or greater than a predefined temperature threshold,the power state is at least one of equal to or greater than a lowest power state threshold, andthe speed of the fan is at least one of equal to or greater than a maximum speed threshold.
