Abstract
Temperature sensors for integrated circuits that use back-gate bias for low power operation. A temperature sensor can comprise a voltage-gate-source generator having sensing transistors; an Ibias generator; a back-gate bias generator; and a temperature read-out circuit. In a calibration mode, the temperature sensor determines a back-gate bias voltage and a resistor trimming code to be used during functional operation.
