ABSTRACT:
A computer implemented method, data processing system, and processor are provided for tracing thermal data via performance monitoring. A performance monitor is set into a tracing mode. Temperatures are sensed by a digital thermal sensor over a time period. The sensed temperatures are stored in a data structure and a trace of the sensed temperatures is graphically displayed.
