Re: About TAU (and ICTC)

The exception would be when it's desired to use the feature for its
original intended purpose, reduction of die temperature when that
temperature reaches a critical threshold.  That would also mean using
the TAU the way it was intended: you set the upper and lower TAU
thresholds as desired, and the TAU ISR turns ICTC on when the high
threshold is passed and off when it moves past the lower.

Unfortunately, the TAU is too badly calibrated to be useful. There
_might_ be some other temp sensors in recent Apple machines, on the
I2C bus, I'll do some "probing" one of these days.
