Embodiment
In order to make narration of the present invention more detailed and complete, can be with reference to accompanying drawing and the various embodiment of the following stated, identical number is represented same or analogous element in the accompanying drawing.On the other hand, known element and step are not described among the embodiment, with the restriction of avoiding causing the present invention unnecessary.
Please refer to Fig. 1, it illustrates a kind of temperature control system according to one embodiment of the invention.As shown in Figure 1, temperature control system 100 comprises a motherboard 110 at least.Motherboard 110 comprises a central processing unit (CPU) 120, a Basic Input or Output System (BIOS) (BIOS) 130, a baseboard management controller (BMC) 140 and a fan 150.Central processing unit 120 is arranged on the motherboard 110.Basic Input or Output System (BIOS) 130 is arranged on the motherboard 110 and electrically connects central processing unit 120.Baseboard management controller 140 is arranged on the motherboard 110, and electrically connects central processing unit 120.Fan 150 is arranged on the motherboard 110, in order to reduce a surface temperature of central processing unit 120.
Please continue with reference to Fig. 1, Basic Input or Output System (BIOS) 130 detects central processing unit 120 and exports a type information of central processing unit 120 in the startup self-detection process.More particularly, when Basic Input or Output System (BIOS) 130 in the detection of startup self-detection process, via north bridge chips 160 and South Bridge chip 170, in a working storage of central processing unit 120, read a sensed parameter to detect central processing unit 120, and then produce type information (Tcontrol), and be sent to baseboard management controller 140 as transport interface by a LPC (Low Pin Count) bus-bar.
In addition, 140 of baseboard management controllers are by platform management temperature treatment interface (PECI; Platform Environmental Control Interface) reads an analog temperature of central processing unit 120.Yet,, cause analog temperature often and have bigger and nonlinear error amount between the surface temperature of central processing unit 120 because analog temperature is to convert according to the running load state of the working storage in the central processing unit 120 and watt level thereof to get.In addition, the difference of the central processing unit of different model and real surface temperature also is different.
