  • Method and apparatus for thermal management of a power supply to a high performance processor in a computer system
    Patent number: 6714891
    Abstract: The temperature of a component of a processor power supply that delivers chip core current to a data processor performing in a computer system is sensed. The system has a separate, main power supply from which the processor power supply draws the chip core current. A reduction in, and not a complete stoppage, of the performance of the data processor is requested, in response to the temperature having risen to a predetermined threshold.
