Patent ID: 6987399

Claim:
A system for testing and recording temperatures of a central processing unit (CPU), comprising: a temperature detecting unit for detecting a current temperature of the CPU at a test time; a temperature data storing unit for storing test results at different test times; a temperature data processing unit for generating test results according to detected temperatures and generating comparison results, the temperature data processing unit comprising: a temperature data storing module for storing the test results in the temperature data storing unit; a temperature data obtaining module for obtaining the test results from the temperature data storing unit; a temperature setting module for setting a safe maximum threshold temperature for the CPU; a temperature comparing module for comparing the current temperature of the CPU retrieved from the temperature detecting unit with the maximum threshold temperature; a test time setting module for setting a standard testing period and a test mode, and for timing an elapsed testing period; a testing period comparing module for comparing the elapsed testing period obtained from the test time setting module with the standard testing period; and a temperature monitoring unit for receiving the comparison results generated by the temperature comparing module and the testing period comparing module, and for generating and transmitting corresponding control signals to control operation of the CPU.
