Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer programs are disclosed for providing optimal power/performance thermal mitigation in a portable computing device having a plurality of processing cores. An exemplary method comprises storing a power sweep table defining a power consumption value for each of a plurality of core frequency and core count combinations for an integrated circuit having a plurality of processing cores. A search table is generated by filtering the power sweep table based on one or more configuration parameters associated with the integrated circuit. A target power level is selected to sustain a thermal power envelope for the integrated circuit. The search table is traversed to find one of the plurality of core frequency and core count combinations having a corresponding power consumption value that matches the target power level.
