Exceeding the limits for temperature and power consumption

The limits for the permissible temperature or the permissible power consumption are shown in brackets in the column description. These limits are platform-dependent and can therefore differ between different target systems. If these limits are exceeded, throttling will occur. The behavior differs depending on which limit is exceeded. If the power consumption of the package exceeds the limit, the processing power of the non-real-time cores is throttled first to bring the power consumption back below the limit. If this is not sufficient, the processing power of the real-time cores is throttled. However, if the temperature limit of a real-time core is exceeded, the clock frequency of that specific core is reduced. If the current value falls below the limit, the configured clock frequencies of the cores are restored.
