Abstract
A system and method for controlling a temperature of a device during testing with a thermal controller and a heat exchanger includes measuring an instantaneous power consumption of the device during testing. The heat exchanger is controlled with the thermal controller using the measured instantaneous power consumption by the device to regulate the temperature of the device during testing, wherein the heat exchanger is in conductive contact with the device.
