Abstract:
A method includes controlling a power limit of a computing system based on a determined skin temperature of at least one location on an outer surface of a device housing the computing system. A processor includes a processing unit and a power management controller to control a power limit of the processing unit based on a determined skin temperature of at least one location on an outer surface of a device housing the processor.

Abstract:
A method includes adjusting a maximum skin temperature threshold of a device based on a device state, adjusting a power limit for the device based on the adjusted maximum skin temperature threshold, and operating the device based on the adjusted power limit. A processor includes a processing unit and a power management controller to adjust a maximum skin temperature threshold based on a device state and adjust a power limit for the processing unit based on the adjusted maximum skin temperature threshold.
