US Patent 11934238 Customized thermal throttling using environmental conditions

A data storage device including, in one implementation, a non-volatile memory device having a memory block including a number of memory dies, and a controller coupled to the non-volatile memory device. The controller is configured to monitor a temperature of the data storage device and determine whether the monitored temperature exceeds a first temperature threshold. The controller is also configured to perform a default thermal throttling operation based on the monitored temperature exceeding the first temperature threshold, determine whether the monitored temperature exceeds a second temperature threshold, and perform a customized thermal throttling operation based on the monitored temperature exceeding the second temperature threshold.
