Independent thermal throttling temperature control for memory sub-systems

Abstract:

Device temperature values that are each indicative of a temperature at a respective device of multiple devices of a system are identified. Whether at least one device temperature value of the of device temperature values satisfies a respective thermal throttling threshold of multiple thermal throttling thresholds is determined by comparing each of the device temperature values to a respective one of the multiple thermal throttling thresholds that each correspond to one of the plurality of devices. Responsive to determining that the at least one device temperatures value satisfies the respective thermal throttling threshold, a power reduction value that is indicative of an amount of power consumption of the system that is to be reduced is determined. A power reducing operation is performed to reduce the power consumption of the system in accordance with the power reduction value.
