Abstract: A CPU power control circuit includes a temperature detection circuit, a power supply circuit and a discharge circuit. The power supply circuit is connected to the temperature detection circuit, a CPU and the discharge circuit. The discharge circuit is connected to the temperature detection circuit and the CPU. The temperature detection circuit is connected to the CPU for detecting the temperature of the CPU. When the temperature of the CPU exceeds a predetermined range, the temperature detection circuit outputs a high temperature signal. The power supply circuit receives the high temperature signal, and stops working. The discharge circuit receives the high temperature signal, and discharges the power supply circuit so as to stop supplying power to the CPU.

Abstract: A temperature indicating apparatus for indicating when temperature of a heat source exceeds a predetermined temperature includes an I/O controller, an A/D converter, a single chip microcomputer (SCM), and an indicating unit. The I/O controller outputs a temperature signal of the heat source. The A/D converter receives the temperature signal, and outputs a digital temperature signal. The SCM storing at least one predetermined temperature value, receives the digital temperature signal and converts the digital temperature signal to a temperature value, and outputs a control signal when the temperature value of the digital temperature signal exceeds the predetermined temperature value. The indicating unit includes at least one indicating lamp coupled to the SCM, the indicating lamp emits light when it receives the control signal from the SCM.
