Zusammenfassung:	Methods and apparatus for management of thermal throttling in data storage devices are provided. One such data storage device includes a non-volatile memory (NVM), an always-on (AON) memory, and a processor coupled to the NVM and AON memory. The processor is configured to: receive an indication that a temperature of the data storage device exceeds a first temperature threshold, while the data storage device is in a powered-on state; store, responsive to the indication, status information of the data storage device in the AON memory; cause, responsive to the indication and the stored status information, the data storage device to enter a low power state wherein the only component of the data storage device that remains on is the AON memory; and restore, responsive to the data storage device resuming the powered-on state, the status information to the data storage device from the AON memory.
