    Abstract: A temperature sensing device includes a temperature-voltage converter that outputs a first voltage, having a zero temperature coefficient that does not vary with a temperature, and a second voltage having a negative temperature coefficient varying in inverse proportion to the temperature. A multiplexer alternately outputs the first voltage and the second voltage depending on a transition signal. A temperature sensor alternately receives the first voltage and the second voltage and senses the temperature depending on a ratio of the first voltage and the second voltage.

    Abstract: A temperature sensor includes a first selection circuit outputting one among temperature signals in response to a selection code. A reference voltage generator generates a reference voltage. A control circuit generates a control signal. A second selection circuit outputs the reference voltage and the temperature signal in response to the control signal indicating a voltage conversion condition is satisfied and outputs only the temperature signal in response to the control signal indicating the voltage conversion condition is not satisfied. A converter converts the reference voltage to a voltage digital code and the temperature signal to a temperature digital code in response to the control signal indicating the voltage conversion condition is satisfied and converts only the temperature signal to the temperature digital code in response to the control signal indicating the voltage conversion condition is not satisfied.
