    Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to a hybrid design whereby a heat spreader arranged to reduce an external skin temperature on a handheld device may further enable the external skin temperature to be directly measured. For example, the heat spreader may be thermally coupled to at least one external surface and include at least one region in which a plurality of recesses are formed such that an electrical resistance is produced in the at least one region when a current is applied thereto. The heat spreader may be formed from a material having a substantially linear resistance-to-temperature correlation, whereby the electrical resistance produced in the at least one region may be measured and correlated to a temperature on the at least one external surface.

    Abstract: A method includes: generating a power consumption reading indicative of power consumption of a device, comparing the power consumption reading to a power threshold, wherein the power threshold represents a level of power consumption corresponding to a rise in temperature of an exterior surface of the device; in response to determining that the power consumption reading exceeds the power threshold, measuring cumulative power consumption over time from the power consumption reading; comparing the cumulative power consumption over time to an energy threshold, wherein the energy threshold corresponds to a temperature threshold for the exterior surface of the device; and in response to determining that the cumulative power consumption over time exceeds the energy threshold, reducing an operating parameter of the device to reduce power consumption.

    Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product are provided. The apparatus may be a UE. The UE has a processor including a plurality of cores. The plurality of cores includes a first core and remaining cores. The UE determines a temperature of the first core of the plurality of cores. The first core processes a load. The UE determines that the temperature of the first core is greater than a first threshold. The UE determines that the temperature of the first core is not greater than a second threshold. The second threshold is greater than the first threshold. The UE transfers at least a portion of the load of the first core to a second core of the remaining cores in response to determining that the temperature of the first core is greater than the first threshold.

    Abstract: A performance setting technique is disclosed for a clocked circuit such as a processor in an integrated circuit. The technique determines a maximum power consumption for the clocked circuit as a function of a total thermal resistance of a mobile device incorporating the integrated circuit. The total thermal resistance is a sum of a system thermal resistance for the mobile device and a device thermal resistance for the integrated circuit.
