Abstract
Systems associated with device temperature adjustment are described. A device temperature adjustment system can include an electronic device having a temperature sensor integrated therein to detect a temperature of the electronic device and a temperature adjust module coupled to the electronic device to adjust a temperature of the electronic device based on the detected temperature.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- determining, via a sensor integrated into an electronic device and in communication with a temperature adjust module, whether the electronic device is within a particular temperature range;
- in response to a determination that the electronic device is outside of the particular temperature range, determining whether the determined outside-range temperature is above an upper limit of the particular temperature range or below a lower limit of the particular temperature range;
- inducing an endothermic reaction to lower the outside-range temperature in response to the outside-range temperature being above the upper limit;
- and
- inducing an exothermic reaction to raise the outside-range temperature in response to the outside-range temperature being below the lower limit.

A method, comprising:
- sensing, at a temperature adjust module, a temperature of an electronic device having a phase change material integrated therein and a photochromic material integrated therein;
- adjusting, via the temperature adjust module, the temperature of the electronic device by inducing an endothermic reaction in the phase change material and the photochromic material responsive to the temperature adjust module sensing the temperature is above a threshold range;
- adjusting, via the temperature adjust module, the temperature of the electronic device by inducing an exothermic reaction in the phase change material and the photochromic material responsive to the temperature adjust module sensing the temperature is below the threshold range;
- and
- maintaining the temperature responsive to the temperature adjust module sensing the temperature is within the threshold range.
2 more elements
A system, comprising:
- an electronic device having a phase change material (PCM) integrated therein and a temperature sensor integrated therein to detect a temperature of the electronic device;
- and
- a temperature adjust module coupled to the electronic device to adjust a temperature of the electronic device based on the detected temperature, by inducing an endothermic reaction in a phase change material to lower the temperature or inducing an exothermic reaction in the PCM to raise the temperature.
