Abstract

Theory and design of compatible wide range smart temperature sensors in standard CMOS technology is presented. The simulated temperature sensitivity using a CSMC 0.6μm mixed-signal CMOS process is -1.15 μA/°C (over the temperature range of -40°C-125°C) and the measured is -0.99 μA/°C. The power dissipation of the sensor is 1.5 mW at a 5 V voltage supply, and the chip area is 0.025 mm2. The characteristics of this sensor make it especially suitable for low-cost high-volume integrated microsystems over a wide range of fields, such as automotive, oil prospecting, biomedical, and consumer.
