System and method for calibrating temperatures sensor for integrated circuits
Abstract:
In some embodiments, a method may be provided for calibrating integrated circuit temperature sensors. The method may include sensing a first temperature using a first temperature sensor and a second temperature using a second temperature sensor. The first temperature sensor may be calibrated and is external to a package of the integrated circuit. The second temperature sensor may be included in the integrated circuit. The method may include increasing a temperature of the integrated circuit. The method may include allowing the integrated circuit and the package to thermally equilibrate over a first period of time. The method may include sensing a first slope of a temperature decay by the first temperature sensor. The method may include sensing a second slope of a temperature decay by the second temperature sensor. The method may include calibrating the second temperature sensor responsive to a difference between the first and second temperatures and the first and second slopes.
