    摘要: A hard disk temperature monitoring device for monitoring a temperature of a hard disk in a computer system is provided. A hard disk stores an operating system. A basic input/output system (BIOS) has a setting configuration. When the setting configuration is a first setting value, operation of the hard disk is restored. When the setting configuration is a second setting value, the operation of the hard disk is stopped. A thermal sensor detects a temperature of the hard disk. A keyboard controller (KBC) is electrically connected to the thermal sensor via a data transmission channel for detecting the temperature of the hard disk in real time. If the KBC detects that the temperature of the hard disk rises to a first predetermined temperature, the setting configuration is set to the second setting value, and the BIOS stops the operation of the hard disk according to the second setting value.

    摘要: A process for a monitor working in a DPMS mode applies when a monitor ends a working mode and enters the DPMS mode. In the DPMS mode, when the signal processor of the monitor detects there is no signal input to the connecting interface, the signal processor will be off and inform the micro-controller to open the signal detecting function to find whether there is a signal input to the connecting interface. When the micro-controller detects there is no signal input for a certain of time, the micro-controller will enter the sleep status. As a result, the purpose of saving the electricity can be achieved.

    摘要: A preheating control system of an information processing device and a control method thereof are described. The system includes a temperature sensing module, a first controller, a heating module, and a second controller. After receiving a power ON signal, the first controller shifts to a primary control mode and determines whether temperature of the hard disk satisfies an operating temperature scope or not. When the temperature does not satisfy the operating temperature scope, the heating module is used to heat the hard disk. When the temperature satisfies the operating temperature scope, the first controller shifts to a secondary control mode and activates the second controller to execute a boot program of the information processing device, thereby improving system stability.

    摘要: An automatic thermal throttling protection method is described. a computer system executes a main BIOS for initializing an embedded controller when the computer system is power on or boots. And the sub BIOS of the embedded controller is also executed. The sub BIOS of the embedded controller obtains an upper temperature limit and a lower temperature limit set by the main BIOS, and obtains a temperature of the CPU through a thermal sensor. The sub BIOS of the embedded controller compares the temperature of the CPU with the upper temperature limit. When the temperature of the CPU is higher than the upper temperature limit, the sub BIOS sends a system control interrupt event to the main BIOS through the embedded controller. When receiving the SCI event, the main BIOS enables a throttling function to perform a throttling operation on the CPU or shuts down the computer system.
