A typical + passive cooling mechanism is a CPU that has dynamic voltage and frequency + scaling (DVFS), and uses lower frequencies as cooling states. + - Active cooling: by means of activating devices in order to remove the + dissipated heat, e.g. regulating fan speeds. + + Any cooling device has a range of cooling states (i.e. different levels of + heat dissipation). They also have a way to determine the state of cooling in + which the device is. For example, a fan's cooling states correspond to the + different fan speeds possible. Cooling states are referred to by single + unsigned integers, where larger numbers mean greater heat dissipation.
