Abstract
A system includes a memory device of multiple devices, and a processing device of the multiple devices, coupled with the memory device. The system identifies multiple device temperature values that are each indicative of a temperature at a respective device of the multiple devices of the system. The system determines that at least one device temperature value of the multiple device temperature values satisfies a respective thermal throttling threshold of multiple thermal throttling thresholds. The system performs a power reducing operation to reduce a power consumption of the system in accordance with a power reduction value based on the satisfaction of the respective thermal throttling threshold.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a memory device of a plurality of devices;
- and
- a processing device of the plurality of devices, coupled with the memory device, to perform operations comprising:
- identifying a plurality of device temperature values that are each indicative of a temperature at a respective device of the plurality of devices of the system;
