Real-time temperature prediction model for AMD turbo core technology

iomega

Just happy to find the below paragraph of turbo core technology in AMD new Trinity APU from http://www.anandtech.com:
"In Trinity, AMD implemented a physics based thermal calculation model using fast transforms. The model takes power and translates it into a dynamic temperature calculation. Power is still estimated based on workload, which AMD claims has less than a 1% error rate, but the new model gets accurate temperatures from those estimations. The thermal model delivers accuracy at or below 2C, in real time. Having more accurate thermal data allows the turbo microcontroller to respond quicker, which should allow for frequencies to scale up and down more effectively."

Though AMD CPU sucks in performance, I feel really happy that my stuff were implemented in actual product - I did it all by myself even without being in the design team.
