Abstract
Thermal throttling duty estimation methods for a CPU (Central Processing Unit) in a computer system are provided. The temperature of a CPU is highly related to the CPU performance. CPU temperature data (CPUT) is first acquired. A thermal throttle duty (TTD) is then calculated according to the acquired CPUT. Thereafter, the calculated TTD can be sent to the CPU and the CPU performance is accordingly adjusted.
