Abstract
An Integrated Circuit (IC) includes an electronic circuit and a controller. The electronic circuit is designed to operate at temperatures above a specified minimal temperature. The IC has a controllable operational parameter that affects a performance measure of the electronic circuit and an amount of heat produced by the electronic circuit. The controller is configured to control the operational parameter so as to meet both requirements concurrently: (i) exceeding a specified minimal performance level of the performance measure, and (ii) a local temperature of the electronic circuit exceeding the specified minimal temperature.
