Address Environmental Factors: If the ambient temperature is too high, consider moving the equipment to a cooler location, installing air conditioning, or increasing the air circulation in the area.

Replace Faulty Components: If the thermal sensors or fans are faulty, replace them with functional components. Make sure that they are correctly configured in the system.

Software Configuration Adjustment: If thermal management software settings are incorrect, reconfigure them to ensure proper temperature regulation and to prevent overheating. Enable features like thermal throttling or system shutdown to protect against extreme heat.

5. Final Considerations

Temperature regulation issues in the TMS320C6657CZH25 can often be traced back to either hardware or environmental factors, such as insufficient cooling, faulty sensors, or excessive power consumption. By following the outlined troubleshooting steps, you can identify the root cause and apply the necessary solutions to restore proper temperature regulation. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning cooling solutions and monitoring power consumption, will help prevent these issues from recurring.

If all steps are followed and the problem persists, consider reaching out to the manufacturer or a professional technician for a more detailed assessment or hardware replacement.
