Latest Patents
Radcliffe holds a patent for a "System and method for controlling an integrated display computer heat sink temperature." This invention focuses on a temperature control system and method for a heat sink in an integrated display computer. The system utilizes temperature sensing and throttling capabilities of integrated circuits (ICs) to prevent a passive heat sink from exceeding a maximum temperature. An algorithm is employed to control the power usage of the ICs, thereby limiting the maximum heat sink temperature. The maximum temperature can be adjusted through an option in the BIOS. The heat sink temperature is managed by throttling down the ICs when the temperature rises. Additionally, an ACPI/OSPM passive cooling mechanism for the CPU defines a thermal feedback equation that activates once a thermal trip point is reached. The CPU throttles down more quickly as the actual temperature exceeds the trip point, and conversely, it throttles up as the temperature drops below this point. The reported CPU temperature is adjusted based on how close the actual temperature is to the specified heat sink operating temperature.
