Abstract
Examples of the present disclosure provide an electronic device in a package, the electronic device comprising a first circuit having a temperature sensitive behavior and a second circuit being switchable between a first operating mode and at least one second operating mode. A power consumption of the second circuit in the first operating mode is higher than a power consumption of the second circuit in the second operating mode. The electronic device comprises a controller configured to switch the second circuit into the first operating mode during a first time interval and into the second operating mode during a second time interval. The controller is further configured to cause an additional power consumption in the electronic device during the second time interval to reduce or compensate a difference between an overall power consumption of the electronic device during the first time interval and the second time interval.
