Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer programs are disclosed for reducing leakage power of a system on chip (SoC). One such method comprises monitoring a plurality of temperature differentials across a respective plurality of thermoelectric coolers on a system on chip (SoC). Each of the thermoelectric coolers is dedicated to a corresponding one of a plurality of chip sections on the SoC. The thermoelectric coolers are controlled based on the plurality of temperature differentials to minimize a sum of a combined power consumption of the plurality of chip sections and the plurality of corresponding dedicated thermoelectric coolers.
