Corrected temperature sensor measurement
First Claim
Patent Images
1. An apparatus, comprising:
- a first module arranged to receive an output signal from a temperature sensor, the output signal comprising a correct measurement value and an error value; and
a second module arranged to iteratively multiply the output signal by a correction function until convergence of the error value, wherein the correction function comprises an approximation of an inverse of a temperature variation of a reference voltage of the temperature sensor.

Abstract
Representative implementations of devices and techniques provide correction for temperature sensor measurement error. In an example, the temperature sensor includes an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The ADC output is error corrected using an iterative digital post-processing technique.
