Abstract: Various embodiments of methods and systems for intelligent thermal power management implemented in a portable computing device (“PCD”) are disclosed. To mitigate or alleviate unwanted workload migration that could exacerbate a thermal energy generation event in a processing component having heterogeneous processing core clusters, embodiments of the solution apply mitigation measures in a predetermined order to the large cluster before applying any thermal mitigation measures to the small cluster.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer programs are disclosed for providing optimal power/performance thermal mitigation in a portable computing device having a plurality of processing cores. An exemplary method comprises storing a power sweep table defining a power consumption value for each of a plurality of core frequency and core count combinations for an integrated circuit having a plurality of processing cores. A search table is generated by filtering the power sweep table based on one or more configuration parameters associated with the integrated circuit. A target power level is selected to sustain a thermal power envelope for the integrated circuit. The search table is traversed to find one of the plurality of core frequency and core count combinations having a corresponding power consumption value that matches the target power level.

Abstract: Various embodiments of systems and methods are disclosed for determining a thermal power envelope. One method comprises determining a set of component and operating point combinations for a plurality of components in a portable computing device. Each component and operating point combination in the set defines an available operating point for each of the plurality of components. The portable computing device is iteratively set to each of the component and operating point combinations in the set. At each of the component and operating point combinations, power consumption data and skin temperature data is collected from a plurality of temperature sensors. An enhanced thermal power envelope is generated comprising the power consumption data and the skin temperature data for each of the component and operating point combinations.

Abstract: Various embodiments of methods and systems for intelligent thermal power management implemented in a portable computing device (“PCD”) are disclosed. To reduce or increase power consumption in the PCD, embodiments adjust one or more performance settings for active components in a given use case, the settings of which contribute to power consumption associated with an aggregate power consumption. The selection of active processing components for performance setting adjustment is a function of the change in user experience versus the change in power consumption that will likely result from the setting adjustment.
