Temperature aware architecture of 14nm Broadwell chip-sets Dane Hylton
Transistors and heat Type equation here. Transistors alternate between on and off. Transistors exhibit high resistivity when between states (on and off) Joule heating 𝑃=𝐼 2 𝑅 𝐸= 1 2 𝐶 𝑉 2 , energy of transistor being charged 𝑃=𝐸𝑓= 1 2 𝐶𝑉 2 𝑓, Power Increase: frequency increases with voltage.
Thermal Design Power (TDP) for Fanless 14nm TDP is an expression in watts of how much power the processor can dissipate without overheating. Core M CPUs (Low voltage, laptops Fanless Designs) have low TDP. TDP of 4.5W Greater than 2X reduction in TDP with better performance vs. Haswell-Y TDP can tell how high a device can perform.
Dynamic Thermal Management Digital Thermal Sensors Maximum temperature Junction ( 𝑇𝑗 𝑚𝑎𝑥 ). Dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) Clock modulation
SOC Power Reduction and Fin Improvement Power = Active Power (CdynV2F) + Leakage Power Dynamic capacitance reduction Cdyn GT/Cache Lower maximum temperature junction. Reduced number of fins for improved density and lower capacitance
Cooling solution TDP makes it possible to desing fanless devices. Less heat, less worry about cooling solutions The typical fanless laptops only use a heat spreader as a cooling solution.
