Abstract
Memory component temperature information is used to implement a method for ODT (on die termination) thermal load management. A respective temperature of a plurality of memory components are accessed, and based on this temperature, an ODT cycle is directed to a first of the memory components to avoid imposing a thermal load from the ODT cycle on a second of the memory components.
