Abstract

See full text

A thermal protection method for a computer system comprising a thermal detector, a controller, and an input/output system, the thermal protection method including the thermal detector measuring the temperature of the computer system and generating a temperature value, the controller comparing the temperature value and a threshold value, the controller periodically transmitting an over-temperature indication signal to the input/output system when the temperature value is not lower than the threshold value, the input/output system executing a temperature-lowering process when receiving the over-temperature indication signal, and the controller executing a compulsory thermal protection process when determining that the temperature-lowering process is unsuccessfully executed.
