ABSTRACT:
Temperature sensors A, B, and C are arranged near a CPU, HDD, and PC card controller, and monitor changes in temperature of these devices. When a given temperature sensor detects that the temperature of the corresponding device has exceeded a threshold temperature, the device to be cooled is determined by identifying that temperature sensor, and cooling is done at power suited to the temperature characteristics of the determined device.
