System and method for stable and elevated idle mode temperature for assembled semiconductor devices

Embodiments of systems and methods for stable and elevated idle mode temperature for assembled semiconductor devices are disclosed herein. In an embodiment, a processor includes a communication interface configured to receive instructions from a first hardware component, the instructions being allocated to the processor for execution. The processor also includes temperature measurement circuitry configured to monitor an on-chip temperature of the processor. The processor also includes control logic configured to: determine whether the processor is active or idle; determining whether the on-chip temperature of the processor exceeds a first threshold; disabling one or more idle mode power saving features of the processor based on determining that the processor is idle and the on-chip temperature of the processor exceeds the first threshold; and selectively adjusting one or more operating parameters of the processor to maintain an on-chip temperature of the processor between a first threshold and a second thresh
