Abstract
An electronic device including electromechanical components, a cooling unit configured for heat removal for the electromechanical components, and a controller. The controller is configured to determine a system state of each of the electromechanical components based on temperature data for each of the electromechanical components and a temperature band corresponding to each of the electromechanical components, wherein the temperature data for each of the electromechanical components is sampled at a sample rate corresponding to each of the electromechanical components, determine a system state of the electronic device based on the system states of the electromechanical components, and control an operation of the cooling unit based on the system state of the electronic device.
