In deep sub-micron technologies, increased standby current in high performance processors will result in increased junction temperature. Evaluated temperature will have positive feedback on the standby current. If the temperature is not controlled, it may lead to the thermal runaway. In this paper we investigate the thermal management of high performance chips in the burn-in environment.
