A temperature control method and an electronic device thereof are disclosed. A temperature control method applicable to an electronic device comprises the following steps. A power-consumption vs. temperature lookup table is provided, which records a plurality of thermal zones and a plurality of power consumption budgets corresponding thereto. An initial power consumption budget is obtained from the power-consumption vs. temperature lookup table based on an initial thermal zone value. The power consumption modes of the plural processing units are dynamically regulated according to each detected duty basis of the processing units, and the initial power consumption budget. The power consumption budget is dynamically changed according to a detected temperature of the electronic device and the power-consumption vs. temperature lookup table.

Temperature control method and electronic device thereof

A power management device and method thereof for managing power consumption of an electronic device are disclosed. The electronic device has at least one adjustable unit and each adjustable unit has a plurality of power statuses. The method includes the following steps: generating a collection table having a plurality of power status collections according to the plurality of power statuses; selecting a power status collection from the collection table; measuring the power consumption corresponding to the selected power status collection; and providing the measured power consumption to the user.
