Temperature sensor

Abstract

A temperature sensor using a poly-phase filter may include: a poly-phase filter suitable for receiving a divided clock, and having passive elements coupled to have one or more negative poles and one or more positive zeros; a comparator suitable for generating a reference clock by comparing potentials of first and second filter voltages outputted from the poly-phase filter; a phase frequency detector suitable for outputting an up or down signal by comparing the phase of the reference clock to the phase of a comparison clock; a current supply unit suitable for supplying and integrating a charge current under control of the up or the down signal; an oscillator suitable for outputting an oscillation signal; a divider suitable for generating the divided clock and the comparison clock; and a buffer suitable for inverting and non-inverting the divided clock and outputting the inverted and non-inverted divided clocks.
