Abstract

It is disclosed an electronic device to control temperature and computing performance of at least one processing unit. An event generation module is configured to receive an internal temperature signal representative of the internal temperature of the processing unit and to generate an event signal indicating the need to recalculate the value of at least one control signal controlling the computing performance of the processing unit and its dissipated thermal power. An event management module is configured to receive the event signal, calculate a control action for controlling the computing performance of the processing unit and the dissipated thermal power thereof, and generate a first candidate driving signal carrying said control action. An operating module is configured to receive the first candidate driving signal and to generate the at least one control signal as a function of the first candidate driving signal.
