Power
Dissipation
Power dissipation has traditionally been a thermal/mechanical challenge for mobile system designers.
The amount of current required from the processor power delivery circuit and the heat generated by
processors has increased as processor frequencies go up and the silicon process geometry shrinks. The
package of any integrated device can only dissipate so much heat into the surrounding environment. The
