System and method for predicting and mitigating corrosion in an information handling system

摘要

An information handling system includes a central processing unit, a temperature sensor to provide temperature information, a humidity sensor to provide humidity information, and an embedded controller. The embedded controller determines a current dew point temperature based on the temperature information and the humidity information. The embedded controller activates a condensation mitigation procedure if a difference between a current temperature and the current dew point temperature is less than a threshold value stored at a register at the embedded controller. The mitigation procedure is a software program executed by the information handling system.
