US 2010/0169562 A1 · PROCESSING SYSTEM AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE WITH SAME

Abstract

A processing system for use in an electronic device is disclosed. The processing system includes a memory unit, an application processor connected to the memory unit, and a baseband processor connected to the memory unit and the application processor. The memory unit is configured for storing information of the electronic device. The application processor is configured for handling applications of the electronic device. The baseband processor is configured for providing communication capabilities for the electronic device. The application processor includes a temperature detector configured for detecting the temperature of the application processor. When the sensed temperature of the application processor is higher than a predetermined temperature, the baseband processor is instructed by the application processor to share workload of the application processor.
