Abstract
Particular embodiments described herein provide for a system, such as a computing system, that includes a processor operable to execute instructions associated with the electronic code, a thermal sensor operable to measure a temperature associated with a device, and a controller in communication with the thermal sensor. The controller is configured to receive an activity status associated with the processor, and receiving a temperature output value representative of a measured temperature associated with the device from the thermal sensor. The controller is further configured to provide a disable signal to the thermal sensor based upon the activity status indicating that the processor is in a reduced activity state and that the temperature output value is less than or equal to a predetermined temperature threshold value.
