A method of an electronic device are provided in which current consumption for one or more components of the electronic device is compared with a predetermined current. A first surface temperature of the electronic device is determined based on the comparison and power consumption of the one or more components. A location is detected where heat corresponding to the first surface temperature is generated. A second surface temperature of the electronic device is obtained based on power consumption of a component disposed in the electronic device corresponding to the location where the heat is generated. A target temperature is set based on the obtained second surface temperature. The component is controlled to reduce the power consumption of the component based on the target temperature.

Electronic device and operation control method thereof

A control method by an electronic device is provided. The control method includes monitoring current consumption for each of a plurality of components of the electronic device, predicting a first surface temperature of the electronic device and detecting a location where heat is generated, predicting a second surface temperature by analyzing power consumption of a component corresponding to the location where heat is generated, determining whether the predicted second surface temperature is greater than or equal to a predetermined temperature, setting a target temperature when the predicted second surface temperature is greater than or equal to the predetermined temperature, and controlling the component to reduce the power consumption.
