Abstract
A temperature difference between a first thermal sensor and a second thermal sensor on a first die is determined. The temperature difference is transmitted from the first die to a circuit on a second die. A temperature from a thermal sensor on the second die is determined. The temperature difference and the temperature from the thermal sensor are utilized on the second die to modify operational characteristics of one or more circuits on the second die.
