Modern microprocessors feature turbo mechanisms that adjust the clock frequency dynamically so as to maximize processor performance under power and temperature limits. However, the documentation for commercial chips rarely provides more than a superficial description of how turbo works. This letter highlights certains aspects of turbo that are not well known outside the industry and that distinguish it from dynamic thermal management. A plausible open-source turbo is proposed and described, extrapolating from the scarce and sparse information that has been disclosed so far.

利用确定性涡轮时钟频率利用热瞬变

现代微处理器具有涡轮增压机制，可动态调整时钟频率，以便在功率和温度限制下最大限度地提高处理器性能。然而，商业芯片的文档很少提供涡轮增压工作原理的表面描述。这封信强调了涡轮增压的某些在行业外鲜为人知的方面，并将其与动态热管理区分开来。提出并描述了一个合理的开源涡轮增压器，从迄今为止已公开的稀缺和稀疏信息中推断出来。
