Abstract
Examples are disclosed that relate cooling an electronic device based on power load. One disclosed example includes a controller configured to obtain a first measure of a power load, apply a filter to obtain a first filtered power load value, set a first thermal setpoint based at least on the first filtered power load value, determine a first temperature of the device, and adjust a response of the cooling mechanism based at least on the first thermal setpoint. The controller is further configured to obtain a second measure of the power load at a different time, apply the filter to obtain a second filtered power load value, set a second thermal setpoint based at least on the second filtered power load value, determine a second temperature of the device, and adjust the response of the cooling mechanism based at least on the second thermal setpoint.
