Abstract

Embodiments provide methods and systems for adjusting a thermal mitigation system of a mobile electronic device when an external case is attached. A mobile electronic device determines whether an additional housing is attached to the mobile electronic device, and changes a thermal mitigation parameter of a thermal mitigation procedure implemented on the mobile electronic device in response. Determination may be made via sensors or user input. The altered thermal mitigation parameters may be stored in memory, or entered by the user, or in communication from an external enclosure. The altered thermal mitigation parameters may be determined based on the particular make, model, or nature of the external enclosure, and / or may be obtained from a database stored in the device or accessed via a network. Removal of the enclosure may be detected and the thermal mitigation parameters returned to initial values.

Description

Background technique [0001] Modern mobile electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops include onboard systems that can generate significant amounts of heat. One or more components within the mobile electronic device housing that dissipate heat may create the hottest areas on the outer surface of the mobile electronic device housing. Such areas are known as "hot spots" and are commonly found on the rear covers of many mobile electronic devices. If such a hotspot is allowed to overheat, it may cause damage or discomfort to the user. Accordingly, many mobile electronic devices include thermal mitigation systems that control and / or limit the amount of heat that a mobile electronic device is allowed to generate by, for example, limiting the power level of the mobile electronic device. For example, a system-on-chip (SoC) of a mobile electronic device may be monitored and its operation restricted if a specified external surface hotspot temperature exceeds a predete...
