Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif de limitation de la consommation d'énergie, destinés à être utilisés pour améliorer la flexibilité et la précision d'ajustement de surcadençage. Le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes : un régulateur de consommation d'énergie obtient d'abord la température d'un premier domaine de tension dans un processeur, détermine un seuil de consommation d'énergie du premier domaine de tension en fonction de la température du premier domaine de tension, puis ajuste la consommation d'énergie du premier domaine de tension sur la base du seuil de consommation d'énergie du premier domaine de tension. Le procédé permet d'adapter le seuil de consommation d'énergie du premier domaine de tension à la température actuelle ; l'ajustement de la consommation d'énergie sur la base du seuil de consommation d'énergie considère réellement le double effet de la consommation d'énergie et de la température ; et par conséquent, le procédé peut non seulement améliorer la précision d'ajustement de surcadençage, mais également permettre au seuil de consommation d'énergie du premier domaine de tension de varier de manière flexible en fonction de la température, ce qui permet en outre d'améliorer la flexibilité d'ajustement de surcadençage.
