Abstract

An integrated circuit system includes a temperature sensor circuit that generates an output indicative of a temperature in an integrated circuit. The integrated circuit system also includes a temperature management controller circuit that compares the temperature indicated by the output of the temperature sensor circuit to a temperature threshold. The integrated circuit system further includes temperature reduction circuitry and/or design compilation techniques and partial or full reconfiguration that controls the temperature in the integrated circuit system. The temperature management controller circuit causes the temperature reduction circuitry to reduce the temperature in response to the temperature indicated by the output of the temperature sensor circuit exceeding the temperature threshold. The temperature sensor circuit, the temperature management controller circuit, and the temperature reduction circuitry may be implemented by soft logic circuits, hard logic circuits, or any combination thereof.
